Unorthodox Abstract Models for the OFDMA Multihop Transmission

Wireless systems are complex devices and a lot of research is done to improve parts of these systems and get a better understanding of the total behavior. One step towards an easier understanding is the ISO-OSI reference model which decomposes the system into layers. But still for each layer, easy models are missing where you can learn the behavior within a few minutes. Researchers like to use abstract models in order to support an analytic approach and prefer detailed models that can only be evaluated by means of simulation. If this is desired or a different view on a problem might be useful, an unconventional model can be handy.
