We consider a communication system where a base station (BS) transmits update packets to $N$ users, one user at a time, over a wireless channel. We investigate the age of this status updating system with an adversary that jams the update…
We consider the problem of two wireless networks operating on the same (presumably unlicensed) frequency band. Pairs within a given network cooperate to schedule transmissions, but between networks there is competition for spectrum. To make…
