| Abstract | This paper studies the scalability of a wireless backhaul network modeled as a random extended network with multiantenna base stations (BSs), where the number of antennas per BS is allowed to scale as a function of the network size. The antenna scaling is justified by the current trend toward the use of higher carrier frequencies, which allows packing a large number of antennas in small form factors. The main goal is to study the per-BS antenna requirement that ensures scalability of this network, i.e., its ability to deliver nonvanishing rate to each source-destination pair. We first derive an information theoretic upper bound on the capacity of this network under a general propagation model, which provides a lower bound on the per-BS antenna requirement. Then, we characterize the scalability requirements for two competing strategies of interest: 1) long hop: each source-destination pair minimizes the number of hops by sacrificing multiplexing gain while achieving full beamforming (power) gain over each hop; and 2) short hop: each source-destination pair communicates through a series of short hops, each achieving full multiplexing gain. While long hop may seem more intuitive in the context of massive multiple-input-multiple-output transmission, we show that the short hop strategy is significantly more efficient in terms of per-BS antenna requirement for throughput scalability. As a part of the proof, we construct a scalable short hop strategy and show that it does not violate any fundamental limits on the spatial degrees of freedom. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
