            Abstract : 
We give lower and upper bounds for capacity in grid networks when using one channel and one radio per node. We also analyze the capacity for multiple channels and make connections to channel assignment algorithms that we introduced previously, which are robust to the presence of primary users. These algorithms could be used in wireless networks or networks with limited resources.
