| contents | Rydberg atomic quantum receivers (RAQRs) offer quantum-limited sensitivity and broadband tunability. It is not obvious whether this device-level advantage also improves network reliability, since in dense deployments, aggregate interference can push the atomic transducer out of its small-signal regime. This paper addresses the question by embedding the RAQR front end into a stochastic geometry (SG) coverage analysis. Starting with the atomic master equation and balanced coherent optical detection, we derive a third-order complex baseband model that retains both the linear gain and the leading cubic nonlinearity. A Bussgang decomposition converts the per-element nonlinear response into an equivalent linear gain plus a distance-dependent distortion noise. Using this equivalent model, we derive the post maximal-ratio combining (MRC) SINR and obtain tractable expressions for the conditional and spatially averaged coverage probabilities. The analytical results show that RAQRs outperform conventional receivers in sparse deployments. However, when the base station (BS) density becomes large, nonlinear distortion reduces this advantage and may make RAQRs perform worse. Simulation results validate the analytical expressions and confirm that the central design tradeoff is between linear gain and cubic nonlinearity. |
