DESCRIPTION:By : Martin Haenggi - University of Notre Dame\, IndianaVideo 
 of his talk\nAbstract :\nCellular networks are becoming increasingly irreg
 ular and heterogeneous\, and advanced communication and interference mitig
 ation techniques make the notion\nof a conventional cell obsolete\, where 
 there exists a hard association of a user to a single base station. In vie
 w of these developments\, new modeling and analysis techniques are needed 
 that permit general statements on the network performance and provide answ
 ers to fundamental questions on how to engineer future cellular systems.\n
 Stochastic geometry provides both the models and the mathematical tools fo
 r their analysis\, often resulting in closed-form expressions for the dist
 ribution of fundamental quantities such as the signal-to-interference rati
 os (SIRs) and coverage probabilities. Starting from a basic Poisson model\
 , we will present different refinements of models for heterogeneous cellul
 ar systems\, and we will derive the SIR distribution and analyze different
  forms of base station cooperation.\nIt turns out that the mean interferen
 ce-to-signal ratio plays a crucial role in determining the SIRs for differ
 ent architectures and transmission schemes.Bio :\nMartin Haenggi is a Prof
 essor of Electrical Engineering and a Concurrent Professor of Applied and 
 Computational Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Notre Dame\,
  Indiana\, USA. Currently he is also an Invited Professor at the Swiss Fed
 eral Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). He received the Dipl.Ing.
  (M.Sc.) and Dr.sc.techn. (Ph.D.) degrees in electrical engineering from t
 he Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH) in 1995 and 1999\
 , respectively.\nHe served on the Editorial Boards of the Journal of Ad Ho
 c Networks\, the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing\, the IEEE Journal 
 on Selected Areas in Communications\, the IEEE Trans. on Vehicular Technol
 ogy\, and the ACM Trans. on Sensor Networks. Currently he is the chair of 
 the Executive Editorial Committee of the IEEE Trans. on Wireless Communica

 ociety in 2005-06\, and he authored the monograph "Interference in Large W
 ireless Networks" (NOW Publishers\, 2008) and the textbook "Stochastic Geo
 metry for Wireless Networks" (Cambridge\, 2012)\, and more than 200 articl
 es in international journals and conferences. He is a Fellow of the IEEE\,
  and he received the ETH Medal for both his M.Sc. and Ph.D. theses\, a CAR
 EER award from the U.S. National Science Foundation in 2005\, and the 2010
