On Modeling Coverage and Rate of Random Cellular Networks under Generic Channel Fading
In this paper we provide an analytic framework for computing the expected
downlink coverage probability, and the associated data rate of cellular
networks, where base stations are distributed in a random manner. The provided
expressions are in computable integral forms that accommodate generic channel
fading conditions. We develop these expressions by modelling the cellular
interference using stochastic geometry analysis, then we employ them for
comparing the coverage resulting from various channel fading conditions namely
Rayleigh and Rician fading, in addition to the fading-less channel.
Furthermore, we expand the work to accommodate the effects of random frequency
reuse on the cellular coverage and rate. Monte-Carlo simulations are conducted
to validate the theoretical analysis, where the results show a very close
match
