The capacity region of wireless networks with per‐destination (PD) queueing model has been studied extensively in the literature. However, the PD queueing structure is not scalable because the number of queues in a node can be as large as the number of all possible source–destination pairs. In this work, we study the capacity region of wireless networks with per‐link (PL) queueing model. The advantage of the PL queueing structure is that the number of queues in a node can be reduced significantly to the number of its neighboring nodes. In this paper, the capacity region of a wireless network with PL queueing structure is characterized, and a dynamic routing and power control policy, namely, DRPC‐PL, is proposed to stabilize the network whenever the input rate is within the capacity region.
