Structural Principles of Wireless Networks

This book positions itself as a theoretical discipline that elucidates the intrinsic relationship and mapping between wireless network structures and their performance capabilities. It offers a comprehensive exploration of the mathematical and informatics foundations shaping network topologies, the unique characteristics of diverse wireless architectures, and the strategies to analyze, evaluate, and optimize these structures to meet evolving performance demands. In an era where wireless communication underpins nearly every facet of modern life—from mobile internet and the Internet of Things (IoT) to satellite connectivity and emerging 6G infrastructures—the structural principles governing wireless networks have become increasingly critical.  Beyond modeling distinct categories of wireless networks, this book’s core contribution lies in establishing a unified framework that bridges structural analysis, property evaluation, and performance optimization across these systems. By revealing the intrinsic correspondence between network structures and their achievable capabilities, this framework lays the foundation for the “Structural Principles of Wireless Networks” as a theoretical discipline—illuminating the inner logic linking topology to performance, providing tools to quantify and optimize network performance. It also offers guiding principles for designing future wireless systems.  This book targets researchers, graduate students and  industry professionals working in the field of wireless communications. It equips readers with analytical tools, case studies, and optimization strategies to navigate and shape the future of wireless communication.
