Connectivity and capacity are two fundamental properties of wireless multi-hop networks. The scalability of these properties has been a primary concern for which asymptotic analysis is a useful tool. Three related but logically distinct network models are often considered in asymptotic analyses, viz. the dense network model, the extended network model and the infinite network model, which consider respectively a network deployed in a fixed finite area with a sufficiently large node density, a network deployed in a sufficiently large area with a fixed node density, and a network deployed in @math with a sufficiently large node density. The infinite network model originated from continuum percolation theory and asymptotic results obtained from the infinite network model have often been applied to the dense and extended networks. In this paper, through two case studies related to network connectivity on the expected number of isolated nodes and on the vanishing of components of finite order k>1 respectively, we demonstrate some subtle but important differences between the infinite network model and the dense and extended network models. Therefore extra scrutiny has to be used in order for the results obtained from the infinite network model to be applicable to the dense and extended network models. Asymptotic results are also obtained on the expected number of isolated nodes, the vanishingly small impact of the boundary effect on the number of isolated nodes and the vanishing of components of finite order k>1 in the dense and extended network models using a generic random connection model.
Extensive research has been done on connectivity problems using the well-known random geometric graph and the unit disk connection model, which is usually obtained by randomly and uniformly distributing @math vertices in a given area and connecting any two vertices iff their distance is smaller than or equal to a given threshold @math @cite_29 @cite_6 .

In this paper we study a model for ad-hoc networks close enough to reality as to represent existing networks, being at the same time concise enough to promote strong theoretical results. The Quasi Unit Disk Graph model contains all edges shorter than a parameter d between 0 and 1 and no edges longer than 1.We show that .in comparison to the cost known on Unit Disk Graphs .the complexity results in this model contain the additional factor 1 d2. We prove that in Quasi Unit Disk Graphs flooding is an asymptotically message-optimal routing technique, provide a geometric routing algorithm being more efficient above all in dense networks, and show that classic geometric routing is possible with the same performance guarantees as for Unit Disk Graphs if d = 1 v2. Random geometric graphs result from taking n uniformly distributed points in the unit cube, [0,1]d, and connecting two points if their Euclidean distance is at most r, for some prescribed r. We show that monotone properties for this class of graphs have sharp thresholds by reducing the problem to bounding the bottleneck matching on two sets of @math points distributed uniformly in [0,1]d. We present upper bounds on the threshold width, and show that our bound is sharp for d = 1 and at most a sublogarithmic factor away for d ≥ 2. Interestingly, the threshold width is much sharper for random geometric graphs than for Bernoulli random graphs. Further, a random geometric graph is shown to be a subgraph, with high probability, of another independently drawn random geometric graph with a slightly larger radius; this property is shown to have no analogue for Bernoulli random graphs. This paper studies networks where all nodes are distributed on a unit square A=Δ [- [1 2], [1 2]]2 following a Poisson distribution with known density ρ and a pair of nodes separated by an Euclidean distance x are directly connected with probability grρ(x)=Δg(x rρ), independent of the event that any other pair of nodes are directly connected. Here, g:[0,∞)→ [0,1] satisfies the conditions of rotational invariance, nonincreasing monotonicity, integral boundedness, and g(x)=o(1 (x2log2x)) ; further, rρ=√ (logρ+b) (Cρ) where C=∫ℜ2g(||x||)dx and b is a constant. Denote the aforementioned network by G(Xρ,grρ,A). We show that as ρ→ ∞, 1) the distribution of the number of isolated nodes in G(Xρ,grρ,A) converges to a Poisson distribution with mean e-b ; 2) asymptotically almost surely (a.a.s.) there is no component in G(Xρ,grρ,A) of fixed and finite order k >; 1; c) a.a.s. the number of components with an unbounded order is one. Therefore, as ρ→ ∞, the network a.a.s. contains a unique unbounded component and isolated nodes only; a sufficient and necessary condition for G(Xρ,grρ,A) to be a.a.s. connected is that there is no isolated node in the network, which occurs when b→ ∞ as ρ→ ∞. These results expand recent results obtained for connectivity of random geometric graphs from the unit disk model and the fewer results from the log-normal model to the more general and more practical random connection model. In the article we study important properties of random geometric graphs with randomly deleted edges which are natural models of wireless ad hoc networks with communication constraints. We concentrate on two problems which are most important in the context of theoretical studies on wireless ad hoc networks. The first is how to set parameters of the network (graph) to have it connected. The second is the problem of an effective message transmition i.e. the problem of construction of routing protocols in wireless networks. We provide a thorough mathematical analysis of connectivity property and a greedy routing protocol. The models we use are: an intersection of a random geometric graph with an Erdos-Renyi random graph and an intersection of a random geometric graph with a uniform random intersection graph. The obtained results are asymptotically tight up to a constant factor.
