Abstract

In this paper we underline the importance of utilizing unequal powers in wireless ad hoc networks. Recent results from percolation theory indicate that a threshold exists after which a very large randomly positioned ad hoc network becomes disconnected almost surely for a given communication configuration. In this paper we prove that it is possible to extend the region of connectivity by allocating the transmit power of each node in an intelligent manner. (8 refs.)
