Next generation cellular networks will be heterogeneous with dense deployment of small cells in order to deliver high data rate per unit area. Traffic variations are more pronounced in a small cell, which in turn lead to more dynamic…

To satisfy the ever-increasing capacity demand and quality of service (QoS) requirements of users, 5G cellular systems will take the form of heterogeneous networks (HetNets) that consist of macro cells and small cells. To build and operate…

In this paper, we propose a novel and effective approach to optimizing the load balancing in a millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular heterogeneous network (HetNet) with a macro-tier and a micro-tier. The unique characteristics of mmWave…

We consider a D2D wireless network where $n$ users are densely deployed in a squared planar region and communicate with each other without the help of a wired infrastructure. For this network, we examine the 3-phase hierarchical cooperation…

Two key traits of 5G cellular networks are much higher base station (BS) densities - especially in the case of low-power BSs - and the use of massive MIMO at these BSs. This paper explores how massive MIMO can be used to jointly maximize…

In HetNets, time/frequency resources should be partitioned intelligently in order to minimize the interference among the users. In this paper, the probability distributions of per user downlink Data Rate, Spectral Efficiency (SE) and Energy…

This paper investigates the cooperative full-duplex device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular network, where the cellular user (CU) acts as a full-duplex relay to assist the D2D communication. To simultaneously support D2D…

Two-tier networks, comprising a conventional cellular network overlaid with shorter range hotspots (e.g. femtocells, distributed antennas, or wired relays), offer an economically viable way to improve cellular system capacity. The…

In this paper, we consider the network utility maximization problem with various user priorities via jointly optimizing user association, load distribution and power control in a load-coupled heterogeneous network. In order to tackle the…

Smart grid is an energy network that integrates advanced power equipment, communication technology and control technology. It can transmit two-way power and data among all components of the grid at the same time. The existing smart grid…

In this paper, we consider the sum $\alpha$-fair utility maximization problem for joint downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) transmissions of a wireless powered communication network (WPCN) via time and power allocation. In the DL, the users with…

Cell-free massive multi-input multi-output (CFmMIMO) offers uniform service quality through distributed access points (APs), yet unresolved issues remain. This paper proposes a heterogeneous system design that goes beyond the original…

Stringent mobile usage characteristics force wire- less networks to undergo a paradigm shift from conventional connection-centric to content-centric deployment. With respect to 5G, caching and heterogeneous networks (HetNet) are key…

We study a heterogeneous two-tier wireless sensor network in which N heterogeneous access points (APs) collect sensing data from densely distributed sensors and then forward the data to M heterogeneous fusion centers (FCs). This…

Next generation (5G) cellular networks are expected to be supported by an extensive infrastructure with many-fold increase in the number of cells per unit area compared to today. The total energy consumption of base transceiver stations…

We model and analyze heterogeneous cellular networks with multiple antenna BSs (multi-antenna HetNets) with K classes or tiers of base stations (BSs), which may differ in terms of transmit power, deployment density, number of transmit…
