Information-theoretic Capacity of Clustered Random Networks

Abstract-We analyze the capacity scaling laws of clustered ad hoc networks in which nodes are distributed according to a doubly stochastic shotnoise Cox process. We identify five different operational regimes, and for each regime we devise a communication strategy that allows to achieve a throughput to within a poly-logarithmic factor (in the number of nodes) of the maximum theoretical capacity.
