In this paper, we consider a cooperative sensing framework in the context of future multi-functional network with both communication and sensing ability, where one base station (BS) serves as a sensing transmitter and several nearby BSs…

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…

We propose to control handoffs (HOs) in user-centric cell-free massive MIMO networks through a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) with the state space representing the discrete versions of the large-scale fading (LSF) and…

When small cells are densely deployed in the fifth generation (5G) cellular networks, switching off a part of base stations (BSs) is a practical approach for saving energy consumption considering the variation of traffic load. The small…

Due to an ever-increasing number of participants and new areas of application, the demands on mobile communications systems are continually increasing. In order to deliver higher data rates, enable mobility and guarantee QoS requirements of…

We propose the QoS-aware BS-selection and the corresponding resource-allocation schemes for downlink multi-user transmissions over the distributed multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) links, where multiple location-independent…

In this paper, we propose a model for energy cooperation between cellular base stations (BSs) with individual hybrid power supplies (including both the conventional grid and renewable energy sources), limited energy storages, and connected…

Caching popular contents at base stations (BSs) is a promising way to unleash the potential of cellular heterogeneous networks (HetNets), where backhaul has become a bottleneck. In this paper, we compare a cache-enabled HetNet where a tier…

In this paper we design and implement a resource management scheme based on cooperative association, where the STAs can share useful information in order to improve the performance of the association/handoff procedures. The cooperative…

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…

Herein, we consider the problem of cooperative multi-access in the presence of overlapped coverage areas. Assuming a frameless ALOHA transmission scheme, we derive exact analytical throughput expressions for throughput in the aforementioned…

Networked low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations enabled by inter-satellite links offer a promising path toward ubiquitous broadband non-terrestrial services. However, fast orbital motion induces frequent scheduling updates and…

In this paper we investigate the benefit of base station (BS) cooperation in the uplink of coordinated multi-point (CoMP) networks. Our figure of merit is the required BS density required to meet a chosen rate coverage. Our model assumes a…

This paper elaborates on Conditional Handover (CHO) - a mobility feature designed in Release 16 of 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), aimed at improving the reliability of handover in cellular networks. CHO has turned out to be a…

One of the most promising approaches to overcome the uncertainty and dynamic channel variations of millimeter wave (mmW) communications is to deploy dual-mode base stations that integrate both mmW and microwave ($\mu$W) frequencies. In…

Most works on cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) consider non-cooperative precoding strategies at the base stations (BSs) to avoid extensive channel state information (CSI) exchange via backhaul signaling. However,…

Handover rate is one of the most import metrics to instruct mobility management and resource management in wireless cellular networks. In the literature, the mathematical expression of handover rate has been derived for homogeneous cellular…

In this paper, spectrum-sharing technology is integrated into cellular systems to improve spectrum efficiency. Macrocell users are primary users (PUs) while those within local cells, e.g., femtocell users, or desiring cost-effective…
