Long Term Evolution (LTE) is expanding its utilization in unlicensed band by deploying LTE Unlicensed (LTEU) and Licensed Assisted Access LTE (LTE-LAA) technology. Smart Grid can take the advantages of unlicensed bands for achieving two-way…

The effort to extend cellular technologies to unlicensed spectrum has been gaining high momentum. Listen-before-talk (LBT) is enforced in the regions such as European Union and Japan to harmonize coexistence of cellular and incumbent…

In this paper, we propose a novel scheme called subband random sensing (SRS) grant free uplink for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) in unlicensed spectrum. The SRS grant free uplink creatively combines the subband sensing,…

The commercial success of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) and the resulting growth in mobile data demand have urged cellular network operators to strive for new innovations. LTE in unlicensed spectrum has been proposed to allow cellular…

Driven by growing spectrum shortage, Long-term Evolution in unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) has recently been proposed as a new paradigm to deliver better performance and experience for mobile users by extending the LTE protocol to unlicensed…

Facing the challenge of meeting ever-increasing demand for wireless data, the industry is striving to exploit large swaths of spectrum which anyone can use for free without having to obtain a license. Major standards bodies are currently…

Exploiting the unlicensed spectrum is considered by 3GPP as one promising solution to meet the ever-increasing traffic growth. As a result, one major enhancement for LTE in Release 13 has been to enable its operation in the unlicensed…

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…

Ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) in 5G New Radio has been originally defined only for licensed spectrum. However, due to new use cases in the Industry 4.0 scenarios, URLLC operation is currently being extended to unlicensed…

This paper investigates the spectral efficiency achieved through uplink joint transmission, where a serving user and the network users (UEs) collaborate by jointly transmitting to the base station (BS). The analysis incorporates the…

Uplink configured Grant allocation has been introduced in 3rd Generation Partnership Project New Radio Release 15. This is beneficial in supporting Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communication for industrial communication, a key Fifth…

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…

Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) has been adopted as the spectrum sharing technique that guarantees a fair LTE/Wi-Fi coexistence in the unlicensed spectrum at the 5 GHz band. Differently, at mmWave bands, where beamforming is a must to overcome…

Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) is a novel feature of 5G cellular systems. To satisfy strict URLLC requirements for uplink data transmission, the specifications of 5G systems introduce the grant-free channel access method.…

This paper elaborates on the design challenges, opportunities, and solutions for New Radio-based access to Unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) by taking into account the beam-based transmissions and the worldwide regulatory requirements. NR-U…

LTE Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a 3GPP defined cellular technology that is designed to enable connectivity to many low-cost and low power/throughput IoT devices running delay-tolerant applications. NB-IoT can coexist within…

Coexistence of small-cell LTE and Wi-Fi networks in unlicensed bands at $5$ GHz is a topic of active interest, primarily driven by industry groups affiliated with the two (cellular and Wi-Fi) segments. A notable alternative to the 3GPP Rel.…

The notion of a fast uplink grant is emerging as a promising solution for enabling massive machine type communications (MTCs) in the Internet of Things over cellular networks. By using the fast uplink grant, machine type devices (MTD) will…

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication, which enables direct communication between nearby mobile devices, is an attractive add-on component to improve spectrum efficiency and user experience by reusing licensed cellular spectrum in 5G system.…

In this paper, a novel economic approach, based on the framework of contract theory, is proposed for providing incentives for LTE over unlicensed channels (LTE-U) in cellular-networks. In this model, a mobile network operator (MNO) designs…
