We study the structure of the optimal sampling policy to minimize the average age of information when the channel state (i.e., busy or idle) is not immediately perceived by the transmitter upon the delivery of a sample due to random delays…
In this work, we study how to optimally manage the freshness of information updates sent from a source node to a destination via a channel. A proper metric for data freshness at the destination is the age-of-information, or simply age,…
