  Abstract

In this paper, we derive the average received beampattern at each receive node which is randomly distributed within a disk when considering a collaborative beamforming between transmission nodes which are randomly distributed within another disk for ad hoc sensor network. Numerical results show that the radius of disk at the transmitter determines the beamwidth of mainbeam, and the sidebeam is affected by the number of transmitter nodes. We also consider  receive groups and divide the transmit sensor modes into  groups to support each receive group using beamforming, and derive the SINR at each receive node. Finally, we investigate the effects of beampattern and interference on total sum capacity among all receive node, and numerically determine the number of transmit nodes for each group which can achieve the maximal sum capacity.
