Symbol

Interpretation

\(I^m(t)\)

Number of Infected nodes for class m

\(S^m(t)\)

Number of Susceptible nodes concerning class m

\(\mathcal {I}^m(t)\)

Set of Infected nodes concerning class m

\(\mathcal {N}_S(i)\)

Set of node i’s friends in the social layer

\(\mathcal {N}_{P}(i)\)

Set of connections of i in the wireless network (physical layer)

\(0\le p_1,p_2,q\le 1\)

Probabilities defined in the proposed information diffusion model

\(N_S^{avg}\)

The average degree of all nodes in the social layer

\(f_1(x)\)
