Abstract :
We consider the influence of FDMA on the capacity region of wireless ad hoc networks with a small number of nodes. It is found that FDMA offers an additional degree of freedom that is beneficial in interference-limited networks. Furthermore, simulation results indicate that static FDMA channel assignment over a time division schedule can achieve rates comparable to dynamic channel assignment.
