Exponential-tail conjecture for bounded signal power with Rayleigh fading

About 10 years old · traced to

Let x0x_0 be the desired transmitter, let ℓ(x0)\ell(x_0) be its path-loss term, and let Ps(θ)P_{\rm s}(\theta) denote the success probability at SIR threshold θ\theta. Assume Rayleigh fading, and let δ\delta be the path-loss parameter.

Exponential-tail conjecture. For Rayleigh fading,

0∉supp⁡(1/ℓ(x0))⟺Ps(θ)=e−Θ(θδ),θ→∞.0\notin\operatorname{supp}(1/\ell(x_0)) \quad \Longleftrightarrow \quad P_{\rm s}(\theta)=e^{-\Theta(\theta^\delta)},\quad\theta\to\infty.

The conjecture predicts exponential upper-tail decay when the signal power is bounded under Rayleigh fading. The paper motivates it from exponential-tail results in bounded-path-loss cellular and ad hoc models, but does not establish the general equivalence.
