A repeated game is an effective tool to model interactions and conflicts for players aiming to achieve their objectives in a long-term basis. Contrary to static noncooperative games that model an interaction among players in only one…
A wireless network's design must include the optimization of the area of coverage of its wireless transmitters - mobile and base stations in cellular networks, wireless access points in WLANs, or nodes on a transmit schedule in a wireless…
An overarching issue in resource management of wireless networks is assessing their capacity: How much communication can be achieved in a network, utilizing all the tools available: power control, scheduling, routing, channel assignment and…
This paper considers a wireless network where multiple flows are delivering status updates about their respective information sources. An end user aims to make accurate real-time estimations about the status of each information source using…

We have witnessed an exponential growth in commercial data services, which has lead to the 'big data era'. Machine learning, as one of the most promising artificial intelligence tools of analyzing the deluge of data, has been invoked in…
In this paper, we consider the performance of a random-access time-slotted wireless network with a single access point and a mix of half- and full- duplex stations. Full-duplex transmissions involve data transmitted simultaneously in both…
As mobile traffic is dominated by content services (e.g., video), which typically use recommendation systems, the paradigm of network-friendly recommendations (NFR) has been proposed recently to boost the network performance by promoting…
We carry out a comprehensive study of the resource cost of averaging consensus in wireless networks. Most previous approaches suppose a graphical network, which abstracts away crucial features of the wireless medium, and measure resource…
We propose a combined uplink/downlink opportunistic scheduling algorithm for infrastructure WLANs. In the presence of both uplink and downlink flows, an infrastructure WLAN suffers from the uplink/downlink unfairness problem which severely…
This paper studies the provision of a wireless network by a monopolistic provider who may be either benevolent (seeking to maximize social welfare) or selfish (seeking to maximize provider profit). The paper addresses questions that do not…
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…
We study the problem of allocating multiple users to a set of wireless channels in a decentralized manner when the channel quali- ties are time-varying and unknown to the users, and accessing the same channel by multiple users leads to…
This paper considers the design of optimal resource allocation policies in wireless communication systems which are generically modeled as a functional optimization problem with stochastic constraints. These optimization problems have the…
This paper studies a novel user cooperation method in a wireless powered cooperative communication network (WPCN) in which a pair of distributed terminal users first harvest wireless energy broadcasted by one energy node (EN) and then use…
Wireless LANs have achieved a tremendous amount of growth in recent years. Among various wireless LAN technologies, the IEEE 802.11b based wireless LAN technology can be cited as the most prominent technology today. Despite being widely…
In multi-user wireless packet networks interference, typically modeled as packet collision, is the throughput bottleneck. Users become aware of the interference pattern via feedback and use this information for contention resolution and for…
The fairness of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks (including Wireless LAN and Ad-hoc networks) is hard to predict and control because of the randomness and complexity of the MAC contentions and dynamics. Moreover, asymmetric channel conditions…
Wireless devices need spectrum to communicate. With the increase in the number of devices competing for the same spectrum, it has become nearly impossible to support the throughput requirements of all the devices through current spectrum…
