This paper considers the downlink of a cache-enabled fog radio access network (F-RAN) with limited fronthaul capacity, where user association (UA), data delivery rate (DDR) and signal precoding are jointly optimized. We formulate a…

This dissertation paper presents the main contributions to the design and the implementation of a Cloud-RAN solution. We concretely address the two main challenges of Cloud-RAN systems: real-time processing of radio signals and reduced…

Wireless positioning systems that are implemented by means of a Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs) may provide cost-effective solutions, particularly for indoor localization. In a C-RAN, the baseband processing, including localization, is…

We investigate the coexistence of underlay spectrum sharing in cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. A primary system with geographically distributed primary access points (P-APs) serves a multitude of primary…

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…

This work investigates the joint design of fronthaul compression and precoding for the downlink of Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs). In a C-RAN, a central unit (CU) performs the baseband processing for a cluster of radio units (RUs)…

This correspondence paper investigates joint design of small base station (SBS) clustering, multicast beamforming for access and backhaul links, as well as frequency allocation in backhaul transmission to minimize the total power…

In this paper, we address the problem of power-efficient resource management in Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs). Specifically, we consider the case where Remote Radio Heads (RRHs) perform data transmission, and signal processing is…

The recently proposed open-radio access network (O-RAN) architecture embraces cloudification and network function virtualization techniques to perform the base-band function processing by dis-aggregated radio units (RUs), distributed units…

Cloud-Radio Access Networks (Cloud-RANs) are separating the mobile networks base station functions into three units, the connection between the two of them is referred to as the fronthaul network. This work demonstrates the transmission of…

The conventional design of cellular systems prescribes the separation of uplink and downlink transmissions via time-division or frequency-division duplex. Recent advances in analog and digital domain self-interference interference…

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…

This work studies the joint design of cloud and edge processing for the downlink of a fog radio access network (F-RAN). In an F-RAN, as in cloud-RAN (C-RAN), a baseband processing unit (BBU) can perform joint baseband processing on behalf…

The Cooperative Rate-Splitting (CRS) scheme, proposed evolves from conventional Rate Splitting (RS) and relies on forwarding a portion of the RS message by the relaying users. In terms of secrecy enhancement, it has been shown that CRS…

Uplink and downlink cloud radio access networks are modeled as two-hop K-user L-relay networks, whereby small base-stations act as relays for end-to-end communications and are connected to a central processor via orthogonal fronthaul links…

The synergetic gains of spectrum sharing and millimeter wave communication networks have recently attracted attention, owing to the interference canceling benefits of highly-directional beamforming in such systems. In principle, fine-tuned…

Multicell joint processing can mitigate inter-cell interference and thereby increase the spectral efficiency of cellular systems. Most previous work has assumed phase-aligned (coherent) transmissions from different base transceiver stations…

This paper considers a cloud radio access network (C-RAN) where spatially distributed remote radio heads (RRHs) communicate with a full-duplex user. In order to reflect a realistic scenario, the uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) RRHs are…

We consider spectrum sharing between a limited set of operators having similar rights for accessing spectrum. A coordination protocol acting on the level of the Radio Access Network (RAN) is designed. The protocol is non-cooperative, but…

Mobile cloud computing enables the offloading of computationally heavy applications, such as for gaming, object recognition or video processing, from mobile users (MUs) to cloudlet or cloud servers, which are connected to wireless access…
