The 5G standards enable cellular network capabilities that significantly improve key network characteristics such as latency, capacity, throughput and reliability, compared to the previous generations of wireless networks. It is, however,…
Energy efficiency is at the core of sustainability solutions for 5/6G networks. We argue this is a too narrow perspective on sustainability, as it ignores the effects of the increased traffic demand these networks stimulate and the need for…
The widespread availability of cellular devices introduces new threat vectors that allow users or attackers to bypass security policies and physical barriers and bring unauthorized devices into sensitive areas. We identify a critical gap in…
Current network access infrastructures are characterized by heterogeneity, low latency, high throughput, and high computational capability, enabling massive concurrent connections and various services. Unfortunately, this design does not…
Leveraging the potential power of even small handheld devices able to communicate wirelessly requires dedicated support. In particular, collaborative applications need sophisticated assistance in terms of querying and exchanging different…
The stringent requirements of a 1,000 times increase in data traffic and one millisecond round trip latency have made limiting the potentially tremendous ensuing energy consumption one of the most challenging problems for the design of the…
Edge machine learning can deliver low-latency and private artificial intelligent (AI) services for mobile devices by leveraging computation and storage resources at the network edge. This paper presents an energy-efficient edge processing…
3GPP LTE-Advanced has started a new study item to investigate Heterogeneous Network (HetNet) deployments as a cost effective way to deal with the unrelenting traffic demand. HetNets consist of a mix of macrocells, remote radio heads, and…
Cellular wireless networks enable mobile broadband connectivity for Internet-based applications through their radio access and core network infrastructure. While Fifth-Generation (5G) cellular systems are currently being deployed, ongoing…
The intelligent transportation system (ITS) offers a wide range of applications related to traffic management, which often require high data rate and low latency. The ubiquitous coverage and advancements of the Long Term Evolution (LTE)…
We propose two application-layer coding schemes for delay-constrained point-to-point packet communications with restrictions on the transmitter's maximum duty-cycle. The schemes operate over GF(2) and utilize intermittently available…
Rural connectivity is widely research topic for several years. In India, around 70% of the population have poor or no connectivity to access digital services. Different solutions are being tested and trialled around the world, especially in…
Internet access in rural areas should be improved to support digital inclusion and 5G services. Due to the high deployment costs of fiber optics in these areas, Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) has become a preferable alternative. Additionally,…
Underlayer networks in the context of 6G for manufacturing are crucial. They address the evolving needs of highly interconnected and autonomous systems in industry. The digitalization of manufacturing processes, driven by the Internet of…
Network robustness is an essential system property to sustain functionality in the face of failures or targeted attacks. Currently, only the connectivity of the nodes unaffected by an attack is utilized to assess robustness. We propose to…
In cellular systems, confidentiality of uplink transmission with respect to eavesdropping terminals can be ensured by creating intentional inteference via scheduling of concurrent downlink transmissions. In this paper, this basic idea is…
The massive scale of Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity expected in 6G networks raises unprecedented challenges in energy use, battery waste, and lifecycle sustainability. Current cellular IoT solutions remain bound to the lifetime of…
Simultaneous reuse of spectral resources by uplink and downlink, denoted as in-band full duplex (FD) communication, is promoted to double the spectral efficiency when compared to its half-duplex (HD) counterpart. Interference management,…
Emerging use-cases like smart manufacturing and smart cities pose challenges in terms of latency, which cannot be satisfied by traditional centralized networks. Edge networks, which bring computational capacity closer to the users/clients,…
This paper examines architectural challenges and opportunities arising from Nomadic Networks in the context of emerging 6G research. Nomadic networks are proposed as a solution to the limitations of stationary communication networks,…
