Precoding design for the downlink of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems is a fundamental problem. In this paper, we aim to maximize the weighted sum rate (WSR) while considering both quality-of-service (QoS)…

We study the problem of cache-aided communication for cellular networks with multi-user and multiple antennas at finite signal-to-noise ratio. Users are assumed to have non-symmetric links, modeled by wideband fading channels. We show that…

User association determines which base stations a user connects to, hence affecting the amount of network interference and consequently the network throughput. Conventional user association schemes, however, assume that user instantaneous…

Future cellular networks are expected to support new communication paradigms such as machine-type communication (MTC) services along with human-type communication (HTC) services. This requires base stations to serve a large number of…

Many existing medium access control (MAC) protocols utilize past information (e.g., the results of transmission attempts) to adjust the transmission parameters of users. This paper provides a general framework to express and evaluate…

Intelligent terminals often produce a large number of data packets of small lengths. For these packets, it is inefficient to follow the conventional medium access control (MAC) protocols because they lead to poor utilization of service…
