A joint resource allocation (RA), user association (UA), and power control (PC) problem is addressed for proportional fairness maximization in a cooperative multiuser downlink small cell network with limited backhaul capacity, based on…

In cellular wireless networks, user association refers to the problem of assigning mobile users to base station cells -- a critical, but challenging, problem in many emerging small cell and heterogeneous networks. This paper considers a…

This paper studies the joint user association and resource allocation in heterogeneous networks (HetNets) from a novel perspective, motivated by and generalizing the idea of fractional frequency reuse. By treating the multi-cell multi-user…

This letter considers the problem of joint user association (UA), sub-channel assignment, antenna selection (AS), and power control in the uplink (UL) of a heterogeneous network such that the data rate of small cell users can be maximized…

User association, the problem of assigning each user device to a suitable base station, is increasingly crucial as wireless networks become denser and serve more users with diverse service demands. The joint optimization of user association…

For wireless caching networks, the scheme design for content delivery is non-trivial in the face of the following tradeoff. On one hand, to optimize overall throughput, users can associate their nearby APs with great channel capacities;…

The proliferation of wireless-enabled applications with divergent quality of service (QoS) requirements necessitates tailored QoS provisioning. With the growing complexity of wireless infrastructures, application-specific QoS perceived by a…

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…

In this paper, we conduct a study to optimize resource allocation for adaptive real-time and delay-tolerant applications in cellular systems. To represent the user applications via several devices and equipment, sigmoidal-like and logarithm…

Instead of achievable rate in the conventional association, we utilize the effective rate to design two association schemes for load balancing in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs), which are both formulated as such problems with…

In this paper, we provide a novel application aware user association and resource allocation framework, i.e., AURA-5G, which utilizes a joint optimization strategy to accomplish the same. Concretely, our methodology considers all the real…

We address the user association problem in multi-tier in-band full-duplex (FD) networks. Specifically, we consider the case of decoupled user association (DUA) in which users (UEs) are not necessarily served by the same base station (BS)…

In this work we study the problem of user association and resource allocation to maximize the proportional fairness of a wireless network with limited backhaul capacity. The optimal solution of this problem requires solving a mixed integer…

The increasing demand for massive connectivity and high data rates has made the efficient use of existing spectrum resources an increasingly challenging problem. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a potential solution for future…

This paper studies joint spectrum allocation and user association in large heterogeneous cellular networks. The objective is to maximize some network utility function based on given traffic statistics collected over a slow timescale,…
