In this paper, we present a systematic study of the
uplink capacity and coverage of pico-cell wireless networks. Both
the one dimensional as well as the two dimensional cases are
investigated. Our goal is to compute the size of pico-cells that
maximizes the spatial throughput density. To achieve this goal, we
consider fluid models that allow us to obtain explicit expressions
for the interference and the total received power at a base station.
We study the impact of various parameters on the performance:
the path loss factor, the spatial reuse factor and the receiver
structure (matched filter or multiuser detector). We relate the
performance of the fluid models to that of the original discrete
system and show that the fluid model provides a bound for the
discrete one.
