Optimal placement considering interference in multiple ad hoc networks

Abstract

Densely located multiple ad hoc networks have been not well studied in terms of throughput characteristics or by considering the capture effect or radio interference, which is a function between the distance of networks. A study discussing a very simple two ad hoc network model is evaluated in terms of whether parallel transfers can improve the total throughput. It is expected that more complicated characteristics will appear in more than three multiple interference sources, i.e., more than three ad hoc networks. In this research, we will investigate the throughput characteristics of network locations for three-ad hoc networks. Then, based on this characteristic, we propose and evaluate a heuristic method obtaining the best location where the maximum throughput is achieved, for any number of ad hoc networks. The results show that the proposed method provides a good approximation, with only 4% error from the exact best solution.
