Two-way relaying can significantly improve performance of next generation wireless networks. However, due to its dependence on multi-node cooperation and transmission coordination, applying this technique to a wireless network in an…

We consider scheduled message communication over a discrete memoryless degraded broadcast channel. The framework we consider here models both the random message arrivals and the subsequent reliable communication by suitably combining…

In this paper, the throughput of relay networks with multiple source-destination pairs under queueing constraints has been investigated for both variable-rate and fixed-rate schemes. When channel side information (CSI) is available at the…

60GHz wireless local area networks (WLANs) standards (e.g., IEEE 802.11ad and IEEE 802.15.3c) employ hybrid MAC protocols consisting of contention based access using CSMA/CA as well as dedicated service periods using time division multiple…

Convergence constrained power allocation (CCPA) in single carrier multiuser (MU) single-input multiple-output (SIMO) systems with turbo equalization is considered in this paper. In order to exploit full benefit of the iterative receiver,…

When multiple job processes are served by a single scheduler, the queueing delays of one process are often affected by the others, resulting in a timing side channel that leaks the arrival pattern of one process to the others. In this work,…

We consider two-way relaying in a Gaussian diamond channel, where two terminal nodes wish to exchange information using two relays. A simple baseline protocol is obtained by time-sharing between two one-way protocols. To improve upon the…

This paper introduces a protocol that distributively constructs a collision-free schedule for multi-hop packet radio networks in the presence of hidden terminals. As a preliminary step, each wireless station computes the schedule length…

In this paper, we carry-out a study of the Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism in IEEE802.11e Enhanced Distribution Coordination Function (EDCF) and how it is achieved by providing traffics with different priorities. It can perform the…

In this paper, we study the problem of cooperative communications in cognitive radio systems where the secondary user has limited relaying room for the overheard primary packets. More specifically, we characterize the stable throughput…

This paper proposes and analyzes a distributed MAC protocol that achieves zero collision with no control message exchange nor synchronization. ZC (ZeroCollision) is neither reservation-based nor dynamic TDMA; the protocol supports…

This paper addresses the problem of averaging numbers across a wireless network from an important, but largely neglected, viewpoint: bandwidth/energy efficiency. We show that existing distributed averaging schemes have several drawbacks and…

This paper introduces a new source coding paradigm called Sequential Massive Random Access (SMRA). In SMRA, a set of correlated sources is encoded once for all and stored on a server, and clients want to successively access to only a subset…

In this paper we propose a novel approach to manage the throughput vs latency tradeoff that emerges when managing updates in geo-replicated systems. Our approach consists in allowing full concurrency when processing local updates and using…

In this work, we investigate a multi-source multi-cast network with the aid of an arbitrary number of relays, where it is assumed that no direct link is available at each S-D pair. The aim is to find the fundamental limit on the maximal…

This paper presents and analyzes a novel multiuser network based on hybrid free-space optical (FSO)/radio-frequency (RF) transmission system, where every user is serviced by a primary FSO link. When more than one FSO link fail, the central…
