The design of the Quantum Internet protocol stack is at its infancy and early-stage conceptualization. And different heterogeneous proposals are currently available in the literature. The underlying assumption of the existing proposals is…
The integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) technique has been considered a key enabler for 6G radio access networks. ISAC fulfills a brand new paradigm shift in wireless networks via the seamless interplay between communication and…
We present the first empirical evaluation of techniques for encoding distributions of quantitative edge values within adjacency matrices. In many real-world networks, edges represent not a single value but a set of measurements. While…
MAC address randomization is a privacy technique whereby mobile devices rotate through random hardware addresses in order to prevent observers from singling out their traffic or physical location from other nearby devices. Adoption of this…
Internet censorship continues to impact billions of people worldwide, and measurement of it remains an important focus of research. However, most Internet censorship measurements have focused solely on the IPv4 Internet infrastructure. Yet,…
The routes in IP networks are determined by the IP destination address and the routing tables in each router on the path to the destination. Hence all the IP packets follow the same route until the route is changes due to congestion, link…
The Segment Routing (SR) architecture is based on loose source routing. A list of instructions, called segments can be added to the packet headers, to influence the forwarding and the processing of the packets in an SR enabled network. In…
Multi-Access Point Coordination (MAPC) will be a key feature in next generation Wi-Fi 8 networks. MAPC aims to improve the overall network performance by allowing Access Points (APs) to share time, frequency and/or spatial resources in a…
We consider wireless communication networks where network users are subject to critical events such as emergencies and crises. If a critical event occurs to a user, the user needs to send critical traffic as early as possible. However, most…
In this paper, we investigate the joint optimal sensing and distributed Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol design problem for cognitive radio (CR) networks. We consider both scenarios with single and multiple channels. For each scenario,…
This paper analyzes the spectral efficiency as a function of medium access control (MAC) for large random spreading CDMA random access systems that employ a linear receiver. It is shown that located at higher than the physical layer, MAC…

A memoryless state-dependent multiple access channel (MAC) is considered where two transmitters wish to convey a respective message to a receiver while simultaneously estimating the respective channel state via generalized feedback. The…
Approximate capacity regions are established for a class of interfering multiple access channels consisting of two multiple-access channels (MACs), each with an arbitrary number of transmitters, with one transmitter in each MAC causing…
Scalable user- and application-aware resource allocation for heterogeneous applications sharing an enterprise network is still an unresolved problem. The main challenges are: (i) How to define user- and application-aware shares of…
The enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) mechanism enables IEEE 802.11p to accommodate differential quality of service (QoS) levels in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications, through four access categories (ACs). This paper presents…
We present a general rate duality between the multiple access channel (MAC) and the broadcast channel (BC) which is applicable to systems with and without nonlinear interference cancellation. Different to the state-of-the-art rate duality…
