Next-generation internet-of-things (IoT) networks require extremely low latency, complexity, and collision probability. We introduce the novel partial-information multiple access (PIMA) scheme, a semi-grant-free (GF) coordinated random…
In this paper, we address the optimization problem of moments of Age of Information (AoI) for active and passive users in a random access network. In this network, active users broadcast sensing data while passive users only receive…
We derive key features of the Age-of-Information distribution in a system whose activities are strictly limited to periodic instances on a global time grid. In particular, one agent periodically generates updates while the other agent…
The ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) service of the fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication network struggles to support safe robot operation. Nowadays, the sixth-generation (6G) mobile communication network is…
We consider a system with a single source that measures/tracks a time-varying quantity and periodically attempts to report these measurements to a monitoring station. Each update from the source has to be scheduled on one of K available…
In this paper, we employ the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique to convey joint broadcast and multicast streams to a set of users. Thanks to the spatial beamforming, different groups of users is able to receive different…
We address the problem of resource allocation (RA) in a cognitive radio (CR) communication system with multiple secondary operators sharing spectrum with an incumbent primary operator. The key challenge of the RA problem is the…

The interplay between timeliness and rate efficiency is investigated in packet erasure broadcast channels with feedback. A scheduling framework is proposed in which coding actions, as opposed to users, are scheduled to attain desired…
We consider a system in which an information source generates independent and identically distributed status update packets from an observed phenomenon that takes $n$ possible values based on a given pmf. These update packets are encoded at…
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) can improve the spectral efficiency by exploiting the power domain and successive interference cancellation (SIC), and it can be applied to various transmission schemes including random access that…
We study the multi-terminal remote estimation problem under a rate constraint, in which the goal of the encoder is to help each decoder estimate a function over a certain distribution -- while the distribution is known only to the encoder,…
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has received tremendous attention for the design of radio access techniques for fifth generation (5G) wireless networks and beyond. The basic concept behind NOMA is to serve more than one user in the…
We consider ALOHA and slotted ALOHA protocols as medium access rules for a multi-channel message delivery system. Users decide randomly and independently with a minimal amount of knowledge about the system at random times to make a message…
We consider a multichannel random access system in which each user accesses a single channel at each time slot to communicate with an access point (AP). Users arrive to the system at random and be activated for a certain period of time…
There is an increasing demand of massive machine-type communication (mMTC) to provide scalable access for a large number of devices, which has prompted extensive investigation on grant-free massive random access (RA) in 5G and beyond…
Opportunistic Spatial Orthogonalization (OSO) is a cognitive radio scheme that allows the existence of secondary users and hence increases the system throughput, even if the primary user occupies all the frequency bands all the time.…
We consider a cognitive shared access scheme consisting of a high priority primary node and a low priority network with $N$ secondary nodes accessing the spectrum. Assuming bursty traffic at the primary node, saturated queues at the…
Cognitive radio (CR) is a promising technology to improve spectrum utilization. However, spectrum availability is uncertain which mainly depends on primary user's (PU's) behaviors. This makes it more difficult for most existing CR routing…
