In an ultra-dense cloud radio access network (UD-CRAN), a large number of remote radio heads (RRHs), typically employed as simple relay nodes, are distributed in a target area, which could even outnumber their served users. However, one…
This paper considers a system where one transmitter broadcasts a single common message to two receivers linked by a bidirectional cooperation channel, which is assumed to be orthogonal to the downlink channel. Assuming a simplified setup…
This paper studies transmission strategies for the downlink of a cloud radio access network, in which the base stations are connected to a centralized cloud-computing based processor with digital fronthaul or backhaul links. We provide a…
Due to the short and bursty incoming messages, channel access activities in a wireless random access system are often fractional. The lack of frequent data support consequently makes it difficult for the receiver to estimate and track the…

In mobile networks, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) acting as flying base stations (FlyBSs) can effectively improve performance. Nevertheless, such potential improvement requires an efficient positioning of the FlyBS. In this paper, we…
The considered problem is that of maximizing the degrees of freedom (DoF) in cellular downlink, under a backhaul load constraint that limits the number of messages that can be delivered from a centralized controller to the base station…
Communication channels are said to be underspread if their coherence time is greater than their delay spread. In such cases it can be shown that in the infinite bandwidth limit the information capacity tends to that of a channel with…
Relay cooperation and integrated microwave and millimeter-wave (mm-wave) dual-band communication are likely to play key roles in 5G. In this paper, we study a two-user uplink scenario in such dual-bands, modeled as a multiple-access relay…
Statistically independent or positively correlated fading models are usually applied to compute the average performance of wireless communications. However, there exist scenarios with negative dependency and it is therefore of interest how…
The capacity of time-varying channels with periodic feedback at the transmitter is evaluated. It is assumed that the channel state information is perfectly known at the receiver and is fed back to the transmitter at the regular…
