In this paper, we introduce a novel approach for optimal resource allocation with frequency reuse for users with elastic and inelastic traffic in cellular networks. In our model, we represent users' applications running on different user…
Constrained by weak signal strength and significant inter-cell interference, users located at the cell edge in a cellular network suffer from inferior service quality. Recently, cell-free massive MIMO (CFmMIMO) has gained considerable…
Ultra-densely deploying access points (APs) to support the increasing data traffic would significantly escalate the cell-edge problem resulting from traditional cellular networks. By removing the cell boundaries and coordinating all APs for…
Fractional frequency reuse (FFR) is an inter-cell interference coordination scheme that is being actively researched for emerging wireless cellular networks. In this work, we consider hexagonal tessellation based planned FFR deployments,…
Full duplex (FD) communications has the potential to double the capacity of a half duplex (HD) system at the link level. However, in a cellular network, FD operation is not a straightforward extension of half duplex operations. The…
With the increasing number of user equipment (UE) and data demands, denser access points (APs) are being employed. Resource allocation problems have been extensively researched with interference treated as noise. It is well understood that…
Clustered cell-free networking paves a new way for enabling scalable joint transmission among access points (APs) by partitioning the whole network into non-overlapping subnetworks. Previous works adopted clustering algorithms, graph…
In cellular networks, resource allocation is performed in a centralized way, which brings huge computation complexity to the base station (BS) and high transmission overhead. This paper investigates the distributed resource allocation…
One key requirement for the fifth-Generation (5G) mobile system is the enhancement of cell edge user performance to ensure that every user is supported with consistent experience anywhere in the network. An active interference design to…

Dynamic time-division duplex (D-TDD) has emerged as an effective solution to accommodate the unaligned downlink and uplink traffic in small cell networks. However, the flexibility of traffic configuration also introduces additional…
Pilot contamination is known to be one of the main impairments for massive MIMO multi-cell communications. Inspired by the concept of fractional frequency reuse and by recent contributions on pilot reutilization among non-adjacent cells, we…
This is Part II of a two-part paper series that studies the use of the proportional fairness (PF) utility function as the basis for capacity allocation and scheduling in multi-channel multi-rate wireless networks. The contributions of Part…
Techniques for channel allocation in cellular networks have been an area of intense research interest for many years. An efficient channel allocation scheme can significantly reduce call-blocking and calldropping probabilities. Another…
The increase in the number of mobile users increases in the requirement of the spectrum. When effective and efficient channel allocation procedures are introduced, the requirement can be reduced. As the users move from one location to the…
