Capacity Scaling of Large Wireless Networks
Description:
The purpose of the project is to study the capacity scaling of large wireless
networks from an information theoretic point of view. Based on recent works on the topic [1,2], the idea is to explore some questions that are left open.
Prerequisites:
The student should have a good background in probability and information theory.
