Spectrum sharing mechanisms need to be carefully designed to enable inter-technology coexistence in the unlicensed bands, as these bands are an instance of a spectrum commons where heterogeneous technologies and deployments must coexist.…

Recently, it has been shown that CSMA-type random access algorithms can achieve the maximum possible throughput in ad hoc wireless networks. However, these algorithms assume an idealized continuous-time CSMA protocol where collisions can…

LTE-Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) networks are beginning to be deployed widely in major metropolitan areas in the US in the unlicensed 5 GHz bands, which have existing dense deployments of Wi-Fi. This provides a real-world opportunity to…

In this work, we consider a multi-antenna cognitive ad hoc network (CAHNet) with heterogeneous delay requirements. To fulfill the interference and delay constraints simultaneously, we propose to perform adaptive zero-forcing beamforming…

Ensuring fair co-existence between unlicensed LTE and WiFi networks is currently of major concern to both cellular operators and WiFi providers. Two main unlicensed LTE approaches currently being discussed, namely Carrier Sense Adaptive…

Uplink/downlink (UL/DL) decoupling promises more flexible cell association and higher throughput in heterogeneous networks (HetNets), however, it hampers the acquisition of DL channel state information (CSI) in time-division-duplex (TDD)…

In this paper, we consider the problem of power efficient uplink scheduling in a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system over a fading wireless channel. The objective is to minimize the power expenditure of each user subject to…

In this paper, we study the joint resource allocation algorithm design for downlink and uplink multicarrier transmission assisted by a shared user equipment (UE)-side distributed antenna system (SUDAS). The proposed SUDAS simultaneously…

We study the fair coexistence of scheduled and random access transmitters sharing the same frequency channel. Interest in coexistence is topical due to the need for emerging unlicensed LTE technologies to coexist fairly with WiFi. However,…

We study an uplink multi secondary user (SU) cognitive radio system suffering statistical heterogeneity among SUs' channels. This heterogeneity may result in differentiated delay performances to these SUs and result in harmful interference…

Cross-technology communication (CTC) was proposed in recent literature as a way to exploit the opportunities of collaboration between heterogeneous wireless technologies. This paper presents LtFi, a system which enables to set-up a CTC…

With increasing data requirements of users, cellular operators are finding new ways to fulfil these requirements. These attempts involve the practice of deploying Wi-Fi access points nearer to the user and backhauling it to the nearest eNB…

This paper addresses cooperative link scheduling problems for base station (BS) aided device-to-device (D2D) communications using limited channel state information (CSI) at BS. We first derive the analytical form of ergodic sum-spectral…

We consider a robust beamforming problem where large amount of downlink (DL) channel state information (CSI) data available at a multiple antenna access point (AP) is used to improve the link quality to a user equipment (UE) for beyond-5G…

With the rapidly increasing number of deployed LTE femtocell base stations (FBS), energy consumption of femtocell networks has become a serious environmental issue. Therefore, energy-efficient protocols are needed to balance the trade-off…

As the number of antennas in frequency-division duplex (FDD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems increases, acquiring channel state information (CSI) becomes increasingly challenging due to limited spectral resources and feedback…

High energy efficiency and low latency have always been the significant goals pursued by the designer of wireless networks. One efficient way to achieve these goals is cross-layer scheduling based on the system states in different layers,…

We consider a scheduling problem pertinent to a base station (BS) that serves heterogeneous users (UEs). We focus on a downlink model, with users that are either interested in large throughput, low latency (the time difference between the…

Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) is the latest IoT connectivity solution presented by the 3GPP. NB-IoT introduces coverage classes and introduces a significant link budget improvement by allowing repeated transmissions by nodes that experience high…

Conventional multi-user scheduling schemes are designed based on instantaneous channel state information (CSI), indicating that decisions must be made every transmission time interval (TTI) which lasts at most several milliseconds. Only…
