Abstract

The capacity ofa wireless network has been widely studied the literature, including the capacity for unicast and capacity for broadcast. In this paper, we studied the capacity wireless network for broadcast. Previous studies broadcast capacity either assume that all links in the network has the same channel capacity, or assume the transmission ranges of a wireless node can be arbitrarily. In this paper we derive analytical upper and lower bounds on broadcast capacity ofa wireless when all nodes in the network has the same transmission power P and all nodes are placed in square of side-length a. When the fixed data rate channel used (each node can send W bits/second to nodes its transmission range if no interference happened), prove that the broadcast capacity is 8(W) under the interference model.
