Statistics of Successive Successful Transmissions - A Metric for Reliability in Stochastic Geometry

This webinar presents "Statistics of Successive Successful Transmissions," a new metric for reliability in stochastic geometry, delivered by Prof. Gourab Ghatak from IIT Delhi. Learn about this innovative approach to analyzing reliability in wireless networks, with a specific focus on automotive radar networks where the metric is applied as "target tracking probability." Discover how this differs from traditional detection probability metrics by characterizing successive successful target detection events with radar pulse sequences. Explore the introduction of a block medium access control (MAC) protocol for automotive radars and understand how to optimize MAC parameters based on vehicle and street density. The presentation reveals important insights showing that parameters optimizing detection probability may not maximize tracking probability. Understand how tracking events can be mapped to quality of service requirements for latency and reliability across different vehicular technology use-cases, enabling adaptive selection of radar parameters for optimal target tracking. Prof. Ghatak, an Assistant Professor at IIT Delhi's Department of Electrical Engineering, specializes in stochastic modeling of wireless networks, stochastic geometry, and online learning algorithms, with current research focusing on the spatiotemporal statistics of learning algorithms in wireless networks.
