Enabling high-definition (HD)-map-assisted cooperative driving among autonomous vehicles (AVs) to improve the navigation safety faces technical challenges due to increased communication traffic volume for data dissemination and increased…

In this paper, we design a new flexible smart software-defined radio access network (Soft-RAN) architecture with traffic awareness for sixth generation (6G) wireless networks. In particular, we consider a hierarchical resource allocation…

Users may already have some perception of provided security based on experience with earlier generations. To maintain the stability and coherent integration of 5G services, it is imperative that security and privacy features prevalent in…

Large-scale disaster management applications are among the several realistic applications of the IoT. Fire detection and earthquake early warning applications are just two examples. Several IoT devices are used in such applications e.g.,…

Ultra-dense networks (UDN) constitute one of the most promising techniques of supporting the 5G mobile system. By deploying more small cells in a fixed area, the average distance between users and access points can be significantly reduced,…

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) allows to control the available network resources by an intelligent and centralized authority in order to optimize traffic flows in a flexible manner. However, centralized control may face scalability…

Recently released 5G networks empower the novel Network Slicing concept. %which enables novel business models; Network slicing introduces new business models such as allowing telecom providers to lease a virtualized slice of their…

O-RAN establishes an advanced radio access network (RAN) architecture that supports inter-operable, multi-vendor, and artificial intelligence (AI) controlled wireless access networks. The unique components, interfaces, and technologies of…

SDN promises to make networks more flexible, programmable, and easier to manage. Inherent security problems in SDN today, however, pose a threat to the promised benefits. First, the network operator lacks tools to proactively ensure that…

Radio Access Network (RAN) sharing, which often also includes spectrum sharing, is a strategic cooperative agreement among two or more mobile operators, where one operator may use another's RAN infrastructure to provide mobile services to…

Compared with the fourth generation (4G) cellular systems, the fifth generation wireless communication systems (5G) are anticipated to provide spectral and energy efficiency growth by a factor of at least 10, and the area throughput growth…

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…

Modern In-Vehicle Networks (IVNs) are composed of a large number of devices and services linked via an Ethernet-based time-sensitive network. Communication in future IVNs will become more dynamic as services can be updated, added, or…

The innovation provided by network virtualization in 5G, together with standardization and openness boosted by the Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) Alliance, has paved the way to a collaborative future in cellular systems, driven by…
