Abstract :
The problem of capacity of a wireless ad hoc network in the presence of a uniform end-to-end delay constraint is explored. A general model for the random motion of the nodes is used. An approximate expression for the capacity as a function of the maximum allowable delay is obtained, and the asymptotic optimality of the proposed transmission strategy in a certain class is shown.
