Demands for wireless access to the Internet and voice communicationskeep growing exponentially, while the available spectrum remains scarce.As a result, cellular, WiFi, mesh, and cognitive networks areincreasingly interference-limited.Despite significant efforts over the last decade, key aspects of theinterference are still not well understood. In particular, the spatialand temporal correlation of the interference has been largely ignored,despite its profound impact on the performance. With the propermathematical and numerical tools from stochastic geometry and spatialstatistics, the impact of protocol decisions on the interference as arandom field in space and time can be assessed, and, even moreimportantly, the question of how to engineer the interference foroptimum performance can be addressed.This project aims at taking a major step in this direction. It focuseson developing a fundamental understanding of the structure of theinterference using a rigorous analytical approach. While the outcomes ofthe project will be applicable to and relevant for most modern wirelesssystems, they are particularly pertinent for cognitive systems, whereinterference between primary and secondary users is not just a technicalproblem leading to a performance reduction, but also a regulatory andlegal issue.

对无线接入互联网和语音通信的需求持续呈指数级增长，而可用频谱仍然稀缺。因此，蜂窝网络、WiFi、网状网络和认知网络的干扰越来越有限。尽管在过去十年中做出了巨大努力，但干扰的关键方面仍然没有得到很好的理解。特别是，干扰的空间和时间相关性在很大程度上被忽略了，尽管它对性能产生了深远的影响。利用随机几何和空间统计学中的适当数学和数值工具，可以评估协议决策对时空随机场干扰的影响，更重要的是，可以解决如何设计干扰以获得​​最佳性能的问题。该项目旨在朝这个方向迈出重要一步。它的重点是使用严格的分析方法对干扰结构有一个基本的了解。虽然该项目的成果将适用于大多数现代无线系统并与其相关，但它们特别与认知系统相关，其中主要用户和次要用户之间的干扰不仅是导致性能下降的技术问题，而且还是监管和法律问题。
