The calculation of the SIR distribution at the typical receiver (or, equivalently, the success probability of transmissions over the typical link) in Poisson bipolar and cellular networks with Rayleigh fading is relatively straightforward, but it only provides limited information on the success probabilities of the individual links. This paper introduces the notion of the meta distribution of the SIR, which is the distribution of the conditional success probability @math given the point process, and provides bounds, an exact analytical expression, and a simple approximation for it. The meta distribution provides fine-grained information on the SIR and answers questions such as "What fraction of users in a Poisson cellular network achieve 90 link reliability if the required SIR is 5 dB?". Interestingly, in the bipolar model, if the transmit probability @math is reduced while increasing the network density @math such that the density of concurrent transmitters @math stays constant as @math , @math degenerates to a constant, i.e., all links have exactly the same success probability in the limit, which is the one of the typical link. In contrast, in the cellular case, if the interfering base stations are active independently with probability @math , the variance of @math approaches a non-zero constant when @math is reduced to @math while keeping the mean success probability constant.
The joint success probability of multiple transmissions in Poisson bipolar networks is calculated in @cite_3 . Similarly, @cite_8 determined the joint success probabilities of multiple transmissions (or transmissions over multiple resource blocks) for Poisson cellular networks. As we shall see, these joint probabilities are related to the integer moments @math of the conditional success probabilities.

The calculation of the SIR distribution at the typical receiver (or, equivalently, the success probability of transmissions over the typical link) in Poisson bipolar and cellular networks with Rayleigh fading is relatively straightforward, but it only provides limited information on the success probabilities of the individual links. This paper focuses on the meta distribution of the SIR, which is the distribution of the conditional success probability @math given the point process, and provides bounds, an exact analytical expression, and a simple approximation for it. The meta distribution provides fine-grained information on the SIR and answers questions such as “What fraction of users in a Poisson cellular network achieve 90 link reliability if the required SIR is 5 dB?” Interestingly, in the bipolar model, if the transmit probability @math is reduced while increasing the network density @math such that the density of concurrent transmitters @math stays constant as @math , @math degenerates to a constant, i.e., all links have exactly the same success probability in the limit, which is the one of the typical link. In contrast, in the cellular case, if the interfering base stations are active independently with probability @math , the variance of @math approaches a non-zero constant when @math is reduced to 0 while keeping the mean success probability constant. The analysis of the success probability or signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) distribution for coherent joint transmission (JT) based on stochastic geometry is an open issue. In this letter, we study coherent JT in downlink heterogeneous cellular networks and provide an upper bound of the success probability for the general user and the worst-case user (cell-corner user), and an approximation for the general user. Simulation results show that the derived upper bound and approximation are quite accurate and thus provide an analytical approach to quantify the SIR performance of coherent JT. We develop a new metric for quantifying end-to-end throughput in multihop wireless networks, which we term random access transport capacity, since the interference model presumes uncoordinated transmissions. The metric quantifies the average maximum rate of successful end-to-end transmissions, multiplied by the communication distance, and normalized by the network area. We show that a simple upper bound on this quantity is computable in closed-form in terms of key network parameters when the number of retransmissions is not restricted and the hops are assumed to be equally spaced on a line between the source and destination. We also derive the optimum number of hops and optimal per hop success probability and show that our result follows the well-known square root scaling law while providing exact expressions for the preconstants, which contain most of the design-relevant network parameters. Numerical results demonstrate that the upper bound is accurate for the purpose of determining the optimal hop count and success (or outage) probability. This paper presents the evaluation of the multi-hop aggregate information efficiency of the slotted and unslotted ALOHA protocols. We consider a multi-hop wireless network where the nodes are spatially characterized by a Poisson point process and the traffic generation also follows a Poisson distribution. By applying the properties of stochastic geometry, we derive a closed-form lower bound on the outage probability as a function of the required communication rate, the single-hop distance, the number of hops and the maximum number of retransmissions. The results indicate that slotted ALOHA always outperforms its unslotted version, demonstrating the importance of synchronization in distributed networks. In addition, we show that it is always possible to optimize the network efficiency by properly setting the required rate for a given packet density. Finally, in the scenario considered, the use of retransmissions and multiple hops never achieves the best performance if compared to the option of single-hop links without retransmissions.
