Abstract: How to measure complex networks has always received much attention.This paper proposed a new method based on the analysis of fractal dimension of self-similarity complex networks,named network dimension,to measure complex networks.Network dimension is expressed as the division of logarithm of the sum of edges’ weights and logarithm of the sum of nodes’ weights of complex networks.The weights of both edge and node are extended to real and complex number fields.The calculation methods of network dimensions of weighted networks with different types of weights were presented.Finally,several representative classical complex network models were taken as examples to discuss some properties of the proposed network dimension.

Key words: Complex network, Fractal dimension, Network dimension, Self-similarity network
