We investigate the age-of-information (AoI) in the context of random access networks, in which transmitters need to send a sequence of information packets to intended receivers over shared spectrum. We establish an analytical framework that…
Freshness of status update packets is essential for enabling services where a destination needs the most recent measurements of various sensors. In this paper, we study the information freshness of single-server multi-source queueing models…
We consider a system consisting of $N$ source nodes communicating with a common receiver. Each source node has a buffer of infinite capacity to store incoming bursty traffic in the form of status updates transmitted in packets, which should…
Information freshness and low latency communication is important to many emerging applications. While Age of Information (AoI) serves as a metric of information freshness, packet delay is a traditional metric of communication latency. We…

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…
Age-of-information (AoI) is a newly proposed performance metric of information freshness. It differs from the traditional delay metric, because it is destination centric and measures the time that elapsed since the last received fresh…
We study the average Age of Information (AoI) and peak AoI (PAoI) of a dual-queue status update system that monitors a common stochastic process. Although the double queue parallel transmission is instrumental in reducing AoI, the out of…
Age of information (AoI) is a performance metric that captures the freshness of status updates. While AoI has been studied thoroughly for point-to-point links, the impact of modern random-access protocols on this metric is still unclear. In…
