This paper aims at investigating the achievable performance and the issues that arise in ultra-dense networks (UDNs), when the signal propagation includes both the Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Line-Of-Sight (NLOS) components. Backed by an…
In this paper, we propose a unified framework to analyze the performance of dense small cell networks (SCNs) in terms of the coverage probability and the area spectral efficiency (ASE). In our analysis, we consider a practical path loss…
In recent times, the use of stochastic geometry has become a popular and important tool for performance analysis of next-generation dense small cell wireless networks. Usually, such networks are modeled using 2 dimensional spatial Poisson…
This article provides dives into the fundamentals of dense and ultra-dense small cell wireless networks, discussing the reasons why dense and ultra-dense small cell networks are fundamentally different from sparse ones, and why the…
We study how dense multi-antenna millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular network performance scales in terms of the base station (BS) spatial density $\lambda$, by studying the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and the area spectral…
This paper studies the impact of the base station (BS) idle mode capability (IMC) on the network performance of multi-tier and dense heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs). Different from most existing works that investigated network…
The unrelenting increase in the population of mobile users and their traffic demands drive cellular network operators to densify their network infrastructure. Network densification shrinks the footprint of base stations (BSs) and reduces…
Base station (BS) sleeping has emerged as a viable solution to enhance the overall network energy efficiency by inactivating the underutilized BSs. However, it affects the performance of users in sleeping cells depending on their BS…
Decoupling uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) is a new architectural paradigm where DL and UL are not constrained to be associated to the same base station (BS). Building upon this paradigm, the goal of the present paper is to provide lower,…
Existing cellular network analyses, and even simulations, typically use the standard path loss model where received power decays like $\|x\|^{-\alpha}$ over a distance $\|x\|$. This standard path loss model is quite idealized, and in most…
Powering radio access networks using renewables, such as wind and solar power, promises dramatic reduction in the network operation cost and the network carbon footprints. However, the spatial variation of the energy field can lead to…
The availability of very wide spectrum in millimeter wave bands combined with large antenna arrays and ultra dense networks raises two basic questions: What is the true value of overly abundant degrees of freedom and how can networks be…
Driven by new types of wireless devices and the proliferation of bandwidth-intensive applications, data traffic and the corresponding network load are increasing dramatically. Network densification has been recognized as a promising and…
We consider a user-centric co-operative cellular network, where base stations (BSs) close to a mobile co-operate to detect its signal using a (joint) linear minimum-mean-square-error receiver. The BSs are at arbitrary positions and mobiles…
We investigate the performance of a downlink ultra-dense network (UDN) with directional transmissions via stochastic geometry. Considering the dual-slope path loss model and sectored beamforming pattern, we derive the expressions and…
Small cell networks have recently been proposed as an important evolution path for the next-generation cellular networks. However, with more and more irregularly deployed base stations (BSs), it is becoming increasingly difficult to…
How would a cellular network designed for maximal energy efficiency look like? To answer this fundamental question, tools from stochastic geometry are used in this paper to model future cellular networks and obtain a new lower bound on the…
