| Summary: | This paper considers a wireless network consisting of large number of clusters, wherein each cluster represents a decode-and-forward (DF) relay network. Two main scenarios according to the distances among the nodes in the network are investigated. In the case of deterministic distances, the outage probability is obtained in a closed-form expression. Whereas for the case when these distances are independent random variables, the framework of Stochastic Geometry (SG) is exploited for deriving the closed-form of the outage probability in case of Rayleigh fading channel. Furthermore, a lower and upper bound for the outage probability in case of general fading channel have been also provided. Numerical simulations are carried out to validate the derived analytical expressions, and to illustrate how the obtained results can be utilized in interference management of such networks.
