This letter shows that the flexible association of possibly multiple base stations (BSs) to each user over multiple frequency bands, along with the joint optimization of BS transmit power that encourages the turning-off of the BSs at…

Heterogeneous Network (HetNet), where Small cell Base Stations (SBSs) are densely deployed to offload traffic from macro Base Stations (BSs), is identified as a key solution to meet the unprecedented mobile traffic demand. The high density…

We consider the interference management problem in a multicell MIMO heterogenous network. Within each cell there are a large number of distributed micro/pico base stations (BSs) that can be potentially coordinated for joint transmission. To…

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the base station (BS) is a critical sensor node whose failure causes severe data losses. Deploying multiple fixed BSs improves the robustness, yet requires all BSs to be installed with large batteries and…

Heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets) are to be deployed for future wireless communication to meet the ever-increasing mobile traffic demand. However, the dense and random deployment of small cells and their uncoordinated operation…

This work considers the problem of user association to small-cell base stations (SBSs) in a heterogeneous and small-cell network (HetSNet). Two optimization problems are investigated, which are maximizing the set of associated users to the…

While the deployment of base stations (BSs) becomes increasingly dense in order to accommodate the growth in traffic demand, these BSs may be under-utilized during most hours except peak hours. Accordingly, the deactivation of these…

In a heterogeneous wireless cellular network, each user may be covered by multiple access points such as macro/pico/relay/femto base stations (BS). An effective approach to maximize the sum utility (e.g., system throughput) in such a…

Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) are proposed in order to meet the increasing demand for next generation cellular wireless networks, but they also increase the energy consumption of the base stations. In this paper, an activity management…

Base station cooperation in heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets) is a promising approach to improve the network performance, but it also imposes a significant challenge on backhaul. On the other hand, caching at small base stations…

The use of a very large number of antennas at each base station site (referred to as "Massive MIMO") is one of the most promising approaches to cope with the predicted wireless data traffic explosion. In combination with Time Division…
