Abstract

In this thesis, the goal is to arrive at tractable general expressions for probability of coverage and achievable rate for a typical mobile user. For this purpose, the grid network model is replaced with the Poisson Point Process model. Later, the scenario has been made narrower and then, it is assumed that the power of the interference signals has exponential distribution, which has helped to greatly simplify the formulas. Then, to evaluate the effect of frequency reuse on the probability of coverage and the average achievable rate in the new model, these results have been simulated. Frequency reuse had a positive effect on the probability of coverage, but a negative effect on the achievable rate. In the simulations, results of two cases, one with noise and one neglecting the noise were compared. Unlike the case with Rayleigh distribution, here noise has a significant effect and cannot be neglected, as their difference mounted to 6 dB at some points.
