Ambient RF (Radio Frequency) energy harvesting technique has recently been proposed as a potential solution to provide proactive replenishment for wireless devices. This paper aims analyze the performance of battery-free sensor powered by ambient using stochastic geometry approach. Specifically, we consider point-to-point uplink transmission in network, where sources, such mobile transmit devices, access points and base stations, are distributed Ginibre alpha-determinantal point process...

RF-enabled wireless power transfer and energy harvesting has recently emerged as a promising technique to provision perpetual replenishment for low-power networks. The network devices are replenished by the RF harvested from transmission of ambient transmitters, which offers practical solution enable self-sustainable communications. This paper adopts stochastic geometry framework based on Ginibre model analyze performance communications over cellular networks with general fading channels....

These notes survey some aspects of discrete-time chaotic calculus and its applications, based on the chaos representation property for i.i.d. sequences random variables. The topics covered include Clark formula predictable representation, anticipating calculus, covariance identities functional inequalities (such as deviation logarithmic Sobolev inequalities), an application to option hedging in discrete time.

The Poisson point process (PPP) has been widely employed to model wireless networks and analyze their performance. PPP the property that nodes are conditionally independent from each other. As such, it may not be a suitable for many networks, where there exists repulsion among nodes. In order address this limitation, we adopt hardcore (PHCP), in which no two can closer than radius one another. We consider two-tier heterogeneous spatial distributions of transmitters first-tier second-tier...

We consider a family of marked binary Galton-Watson trees that can model individual types in population genetics, by allowing for mutation and reversion discrete continuous time. derive recursive formula the computation joint distribution conditional to value total progeny. This allows us compute evolution various expected quantities, such as mean proportions different tree size or time increases. Some generating functions are determined explicit forms using generalized Catalan numbers,...

Abstract We consider the count of subgraphs with an arbitrary configuration endpoints in random-connection model based on a Poisson point process ${\mathord{\mathbb R}}^d$ . present combinatorial expressions for computation cumulants and moments all orders such subgraph counts, which allow us to estimate growth as intensity underlying goes infinity. As consequence, we obtain central limit theorem explicit convergence rates under Kolmogorov distance connectivity bounds. Numerical examples are...
