It is known that data rates in standard cellular networks are limited due to inter-cell interference. An effective solution of this problem is to use the multi-cell cooperation idea. In Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), which is a…

Cloud radio-access networks (C-RAN) have been proposed as an enabling technology for keeping up with the requirements of next-generation wireless networks. Most existing works on C-RAN consider the uplink or the downlink separately.…

In light of the quick proliferation of Internet of things (IoT) devices and applications, fog radio access network (Fog-RAN) has been recently proposed for fifth generation (5G) wireless communications to assure the requirements of…

Control data separation architecture (CDSA) is a more efficient architecture to overcome the overhead issue than the conventional cellular networks, especially for the huge bursty traffic like Internet of Things, and over-the-top (OTT)…

A multi-user fog radio access network (F-RAN) is designed for supporting content-centric services. The requested contents are partitioned into sub-contents, which are then 'beam- formed' by the remote radio heads (RRHs) for transmission to…

Due to the high costs of optical fiber deployment in Low-Density and Rural Areas (LDRAs), 5G Fixed Wireless Access (5G FWA) recently emerged as an affordable solution. A widely adopted deployment scenario of 5G FWA includes edge cloud that…

Cloud-Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is characterized by a hierarchical structure in which the baseband processing functionalities of remote radio heads (RRHs) are implemented by means of cloud computing at a Central Unit (CU). A key…

In this paper, the edge caching problem in ultra-dense fog radio access networks (F-RAN) is investigated. Taking into account time-variant user requests and ultra-dense deployment of fog access points (F-APs), we propose a dynamic…

In the Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) architecture, a Control Unit (CU) implements the baseband processing functionalities of a cluster of Base Stations (BSs), which are connected to it through a fronthaul network. This architecture…

In cloud radio access networks (C-RANs), the baseband processing of the available macro- or pico/femto-base stations (BSs) is migrated to control units, each of which manages a subset of BS antennas. The centralized information processing…

Radio Access Network (RAN) disaggregation is emerging as a key trend in beyond 5G, as it offers new opportunities for more flexible deployments and intelligent network management. A relevant problem in disaggregated RAN is the functional…

In this paper, we address the virtualization and the centralization of real-time network functions, notably in the framework of Cloud RAN (C-RAN). We thoroughly analyze the required fronthaul capacity for the deployment of the proposed…

We consider an unmanned aerial vehicle enabled (UAV-enabled) fog-radio access network (F-RAN) in which UAVs are considered as flying remote radio heads (RRH) equipped with caching and cooperative communications capabilities. We are mainly…

With the increasing popularity of user equipments (UEs), the corresponding UEs' generating big data (UGBD) is also growing substantially, which makes both UEs and current network structures struggling in processing those data and…

To provide Uplink Centric Broadband Communication (UCBC), New Radio Unlicensed (NR-U) network has been standardized to exploit the unlicensed spectrum using Listen Before Talk (LBT) scheme to fairly coexist with the incumbent Wireless…

We characterize the uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) rates of a full-duplex cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with all participate and single best remote radio head (RRH) association schemes. Specifically, multi-antenna equipped RRHs…

In modern implementations of Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), the fronthaul transport network will often be packet-based and it will have a multi-hop architecture built with general-purpose switches using network function virtualization…

This paper studies the energy efficiency of the cloud radio access network (C-RAN), specifically focusing on two fundamental and different downlink transmission strategies, namely the data-sharing strategy and the compression strategy. In…

The fully-decoupled radio access network (FD-RAN) is an innovative architecture designed for next-generation mobile communication networks, featuring decoupled control and data planes as well as separated uplink and downlink transmissions.…

As emerging networks such as Open Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) and 5G continue to grow, the demand for various services with different requirements is increasing. Network slicing has emerged as a potential solution to address the different…
