In distributed target-tracking sensor networks, efficient data gathering methods are necessary to save communication resources and assure information accuracy. This paper proposes a Feedback (FB) distributed data-gathering method which lets…
The problem of efficient sharing of a resource is nearly ubiquitous. Except for pure public goods, each agent's use creates a negative externality; often the negative externality is so strong that efficient sharing is impossible in the…
In this work, in order to achieve higher spectrum efficiency, we propose a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted multi-user communication uplink system. Different from previous work in which the RIS only optimizes the phase of…
Mobile edge computing provides users with a cloud environment close to the edge of the wireless network, supporting the computing intensive applications that have low latency requirements. The combination of offloading with the wireless…
In highly-dense IEEE 802.11 deployments, areas covered by multiple Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) will be common. This opens the door for stations equipped with multiple IEEE 802.11 interfaces to use several WLANs simultaneously,…
