This paper considers the following question for viable wide-area millimeter wave cellular networks. What is the maximum extended coverage area of a single fiber site using multi-hop relaying, while achieving a minimum target per user data…

A small-cell network with multiple transmitters and unreliable wireless backhaul is considered for secrecy enhancement. The small-cell network is operating under a spectrum sharing agreement with a primary network in a cognitive radio…

Caching popular content at base stations is a powerful supplement to existing limited backhaul links for accommodating the exponentially increasing mobile data traffic. Given the limited cache budget, we investigate the cache size…

Caching of popular content on wireless nodes is recently proposed as a means to reduce congestion in the backbone of cellular networks and to improve Quality of Service. From a network point of view, the goal is to offload as many users as…

The emerging cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) is a promising scheme to tackle the capacity crunch in wireless networks. Designing the optimal fronthaul network in the CF-mMIMIO is of utmost importance to deploy a…

Heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets) provide a powerful approach to meet the dramatic mobile traffic growth, but also impose a significant challenge on backhaul. Caching and multicasting at macro and pico base stations (BSs) are two…

The radio-frequency (RF) technology is a scalable solution for the backhaul planning. However, its performance is limited in terms of data rate and latency. Free Space Optical (FSO) backhaul, on the other hand, offers a higher data rate but…

Wireless access points on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are being considered for mobile service provisioning in commercial networks. To be able to efficiently use these devices in cellular networks it is necessary to first have a…

We study a two-tier macrocell/femtocell system where the macrocell base station is equipped with multiple antennas and makes use of multiuser MIMO (spatial multiplexing), and the femtocells are "cognitive". In particular, we assume that the…

Our traditional notion of a cell is changing dramatically given the increasing degree of heterogeneity in 4G and emerging 5G systems. Rather than belonging to a specific cell, a device would choose the most suitable connection from the…

We consider fronthaul-limited generalized zeroforcing-based cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (CF-mMIMO) systems with multiple-antenna users and multipleantenna access points (APs) relying on both cooperative beamforming (CB)…

Offloading traffic through opportunistic communications has been recently proposed as a way to relieve the current overload of cellular networks. Opportunistic communication can occur when mobile device users are (temporarily) in each…

Full-duplex self-backhauling is promising to provide cost-effective and flexible backhaul connectivity for ultra-dense wireless networks, but also poses a great challenge to resource management between the access and backhaul links. In this…

The rate distribution in heterogeneous networks (HetNets) greatly benefits from load balancing, by which mobile users are pushed onto lightly-loaded small cells despite the resulting loss in SINR. This offloading can be made more aggressive…

Mobile cloud computing enables the offloading of computationally heavy applications, such as for gaming, object recognition or video processing, from mobile users (MUs) to cloudlet or cloud servers, which are connected to wireless access…

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication is a promising technology to cope with the exponential increase in 5G data traffic. Such networks typically require a very dense deployment of base stations. A subset of those, so-called macro base…

The heterogeneity in cellular networks that comprise multiple base stations types imposes new challenges in network planning and deployment of future generation of cellular networks. The Radio Resource Management (RRM) techniques, such as…

A fundamental choice in femtocell deployments is the set of users which are allowed to access each femtocell. Closed access restricts the set to specifically registered users, while open access allows any mobile subscriber to use any…

The mobile femtocell is the new paradigm for the femtocellular network deployment. It can enhance the service quality for the users inside the vehicles. The deployment of mobile femtocells generates lot of handover calls. Also, number of…

A joint resource allocation (RA), user association (UA), and power control (PC) problem is addressed for proportional fairness maximization in a cooperative multiuser downlink small cell network with limited backhaul capacity, based on…
