Dual Connectivity (DC) is a technique proposed to address the problem of increased handovers in heterogeneous networks. In DC, a foreground User Equipment (UE) with multiple transceivers has a possibility to connect to a Macro eNodeB (MeNB)…

In this paper, a comprehensive software-defined networking (SDN) based transmission protocol (SDTP) is presented for fifth generation (5G) communication networks, where an SDN controller gathers network state information from the physical…

The increasing complexity of 6G systems demands innovative tools for network management, simulation, and optimization. This work introduces the integration of ns-3 with Sionna RT, establishing the foundation for the first open source…

Multi-connectivity (MC) with packet duplication, where the same data packet is duplicated and transmitted from multiple transmitters, is proposed in 5G New Radio as a reliability enhancement feature. However, it is found to be resource…

Dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) played an important role in the 4G-to-5G transition by allowing 5G new radio (NR) to enter valuable legacy spectrum without immediate static refarming. Yet practical deployments also exposed the cost of…

In cellular networks, the locations of the radio access network (RAN) elements are determined mainly based on the long-term traffic behaviour. However, when the random and hard-to-predict spatio-temporal distribution of the traffic…

It is envisioned that 6G networks will be supported by key architectural principles, including intelligence, decentralization, interoperability, and digitalization. With the advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning…

Wireless rechargeable sensor networks (WRSNs), supported by recent advancements in wireless power transfer (WPT) technology, hold significant potential for extending network lifetime. However, traditional approaches often prioritize…

With the rapid development of technology, the number of smart mobile users is increasing, accompanied by growing demands from applications such as virtual/augmented reality (VR/XR), remote surgery, autonomous vehicles, and real-time…

Ultra-dense networks (UDN) constitute one of the most promising techniques of supporting the 5G mobile system. By deploying more small cells in a fixed area, the average distance between users and access points can be significantly reduced,…

An important challenge for smart grid security is designing a secure and robust smart grid communications architecture to protect against cyber-threats, such as Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, that can adversely impact the operation of the…

In modern implementations of Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), the fronthaul transport network will often be packet-based and it will have a multi-hop architecture built with general-purpose switches using network function virtualization…

5G mobile networks provide additional benefits in terms of lower latency, higher data rates, and more coverage, in comparison to 4G networks, and they are also coming close to standardization. For example, 5G has a new level of data…

Reliable and secure communication is essential for mission-critical aerospace and defence operations involving autonomous platforms such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), satellites, and ground control systems. In contested or dynamic…

This paper presents the first ever fully open-source implementation of Load Balancing (LB) in an experimental Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) Standalone (SA) network using Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture. The deployment…

Heterogeneous Vehicular NETworks (HetVNETs) can meet various quality-of-service (QoS) requirements for intelligent transport system (ITS) services by integrating different access networks coherently. However, the current network…

Internet of things is in progress to build a smart society, and wireless networks are critical enablers for many of its use cases. In this paper, we present a multi-coordinated transmission scheme to achieve ultra-reliability for critical…

Open RAN (O-RAN) defines an emerging cellular radio access network (RAN) architecture for future 6G wireless networks, emphasizing openness and intelligence which are considered the foundations of future 6G wireless networks. While the…
