The evolving fifth generation (5G) cellular wireless networks are envisioned to overcome the fundamental challenges of existing cellular networks, e.g., higher data rates, excellent end-to-end performance and user-coverage in hot-spots and…

Future Mobile Networks (MNs), 5G and beyond 5G, will require a paradigm shift from traditional resource allocation mechanisms as Base Stations (BSs) will be empowered with computation capabilities (i.e., offloading and computation is…

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Distributed Networking (SDN) technologies play a crucial role in enabling 5G system and beyond. A synergy between these both technologies has been identified for enabling a new concept…

SDN efficiency is driven by the ability of controllers to process small packets based on a global view of the network. The goal of such controllers is thus to treat new flows coming from hundreds of switches in a timely fashion. In this…

Future generation wireless networks are designed with extremely low delay requirements which makes even small contributed delays important. On the other hand, software defined networking (SDN) has been introduced as a key enabler of future…

Experimentation in practical, end-to-end (E2E) next-generation networks deployments is becoming increasingly prevalent and significant in the realm of modern networking and wireless communications research. The prevalence of…

The 5G standards enable cellular network capabilities that significantly improve key network characteristics such as latency, capacity, throughput and reliability, compared to the previous generations of wireless networks. It is, however,…

Flexible management is one of the key components of next-generation 5G networks. Currently, many approaches focus on network functionality (services) and translate it afterward into end-user requirements, which slightly constrains the…

As 5G deployments continue throughout the world, concerns regarding its energy consumption have gained significant traction. This article focuses on radio access networks (RANs) which account for a major portion of the network energy use.…

Wireless networks, in the fifth-generation and beyond, must support diverse network applications which will support the numerous and demanding connections of today's and tomorrow's devices. Requirements such as high data rates, low…

To cope with the growing demand for wireless data and to extend service coverage, future 5G networks will increasingly rely on the use of low powered nodes to support massive connectivity in diverse set of applications and services [1]. To…

The 5G mobile communication network provides seamless communications between users and service providers and promises to achieve several stringent requirements, such as seamless mobility and massive connectivity. Although 5G can offer…

5G wireless networks aim to achieve seamless mobile broadband services, machine to machine and ultra-reliable low latency communications. These goals require massive improvements in terms of capacity, reliability, latency reduction, and…

Time synchronization is essential for industrial IoT and Industry 4.0/5.0 applications, but achieving high synchronization accuracy in Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)-5G networks is challenging due to jitter and asymmetric delays. 3GPP TS…

To meet the increasing demands of next-generation cellular networks (e.g., 6G), advanced networking technologies must be incorporated. On one hand, the Fog Radio Access Network (F-RAN), has been proposed as an enhancement to the Cloud Radio…

The 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) radio access network (RAN) plenary recently approved a work package for its Release 18, representing a major evolution and branded as the first release of 5G Advanced. The work package includes…

Increasing mobile data demands in current cellular networks and proliferation of advanced handheld devices have given rise to a new generation of dynamic network architectures (DNAs). In a DNA, users share their connectivities and act as…

The standardization of fifth generation (5G) communications has been completed, and the 5G network should be commercially launched in 2020. As a result, the visioning and planning of sixth generation (6G) communications has begun, with an…

New Radio (NR) is a new radio air interface developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for the fifth generation (5G) mobile communications system. With great flexibility, scalability, and efficiency, 5G is expected to…
