  We present scaling laws that dictate both local and global connectivity
properties of bounded wireless networks. These laws are defined with respect to
the key system parameters of per-node transmit power and the number of antennas
exploited for diversity coding and/or beamforming at each node. We demonstrate
that the local probability of connectivity scales like $\mathcal{O}(z^\mathcal
C)$ in these parameters, where $\mathcal C$ is the ratio of the dimension of
the network domain to the path loss exponent, thus enabling efficient boundary
effect mitigation and network topology control.
