N2 - Inspired by the thermodynamic limit in random geometric graphs, we propose a notion of sink connectivity for wireless networks. The sink connectivity, denoted Cn? is defined as the fraction of nodes in the network that are connected to the sink. We will show in this paper that if n nodes are randomly placed in a disc of area A and each node's radius chosen as rn =√Ad/(πn), then the resulting network satisfies Cn→P 1 as n → ∞ if and only if d √∞ co, Simulation results show that if we tolerate a very small fraction of the nodes being isolated from the network, the communication cost can be considerably reduced. The cases in more practical connection models are also explored.
