variance), it could take infinitely. long for a system to reach steady state. The<br />

traditional steady state assumption is therefore worth investigating.<br />

The adaptation of this assumption to ad hoc networks also needs to be investigated<br />

further. Accounting for topology changes has not been included in the analytical<br />

model because it is currently difficult to determine the steady state of an ad hoc<br />

network. Further work would involve overcoming this hurdle and incorporating<br />

mobility in the analytical model. Routing protocols would then be easily evaluated<br />

and optimised.<br />

The interference distribution has been modelled as Gaussian in keeping with the<br />

results obtained from field trials with cellular CDMA networks. In order to determine<br />

whether these estimations and· assumptions are correct, experiments need to be<br />

conducted to determine the physical layer attributes of wireless multihop networks.<br />
