Performance Analysis on Nano-Networks: A Stochastic Geometry Approach

Pulse based communication scheme, e.g., On-OFF Keying modulation Spread in Time (TS-OOK), is currently the only solution for nano-networks. In this paper, we present an initial analysis on the performance of pulse based communication scheme in nano-networks using stochastic geometry. To be specific, by modeling the transmission of pulse as random events, we theoretically characterize the cumulative distribution function of signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio and link throughput in nano-networks. Furthermore, both simulation and numerical results are presented to verify our analysis. Our results show that low-weight codes for TS-OOK can significantly increase the average throughput in dense nano-networks where the interference cannot be neglected.
