The Optimum Number of Nodes and Radius for Distributed Beamforming Networks
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents a ready-made formula to calculate the number of node and network radius for distributed beamforming networks. The calculation is based on guarantee of received signal at destination to be higher than received sensitivity. The proposed calculation model already includes path loss and also imperfection in node location estimation, which can be applied for both indoor and outdoor scenarios.
