Cell switching is a promising approach for improving energy efficiency in wireless networks; however, existing studies largely rely on simplified models and energy-centric formulations that overlook key performance-limiting factors. This…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be used as flying base stations (BSs) to offload Macro-BSs in hotspots. However, due to the limited battery on-board, UAVs can typically stay in operation for less than 1.5 hours. Afterward, the UAV has…
Cell-free massive MIMO is a variant of multiuser MIMO and massive MIMO, in which the total number of antennas $LM$ is distributed among the $L$ remote radio units (RUs) in the system, enabling macrodiversity and joint processing. Due to…
