In this paper we present a simple, stochastic-geometric model of a wireless access network exploiting the LoRA (Long Range) protocol, which is a non-expensive technology allowing for long-range, single-hop connectivity for the Internet of…

LoRa is one of the most widely used low-power wide-area network technology for the Internet of Things. To achieve long-range communication with low power consumption at a low cost, LoRa uses a chirp spread spectrum modulation and transmits…

This paper addresses the joint optimization of per-user equipment (UE) bandwidth allocation and UE-access point (AP) association to maximize weighted sum-rate while satisfying heterogeneous quality-of-service (QoS) requirements across…

The performance of multiuser systems is both difficult to measure fairly and to optimize. Most resource allocation problems are non-convex and NP-hard, even under simplifying assumptions such as perfect channel knowledge, homogeneous…

Short-range reliable and secure communication is a major priority in the tactical, military and disaster response settings where the traditional communication infrastructure is either off-line or prone to interception. Current VHF/UHF…

LoRa has become a cornerstone for city-wide IoT applications due to its long-range, low-power communication. It achieves extended transmission by spreading symbols over multiple samples, with redundancy controlled by the Spreading Factor…

The discrepancy between the upper bound on throughput in wireless networks and the throughput scaling in random networks which is also known as the connectivity-throughput trade-off is analyzed. In a random network with $\lambda$ nodes per…

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks are making spectacular progress from design, standardisation, to commercialisation. At this time of fast-paced adoption, it is of utmost importance to analyse how well these technologies will scale as the…

Smart Utility Networks (SUN) rely on the Wireless-SUN (Wi-SUN) specification for years. Recently practitioners and researchers have considered Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) like LoRaWAN for SUN applications. With distinct…

One of the paramount advantages of multi-level cache-enabled (MLCE) networks is pushing contents proximity to the network edge and proactively caching them at multiple transmitters (i.e., small base-stations (SBSs), unmanned aerial vehicles…

We study the problem of inter cell interference coordination (ICIC) with fixed transmit power in OFDMA-based cellular networks, in which each base station (BS) needs to decide as to which subchannel, if any, to allocate to each of its…

LoRaWAN is a compelling low-cost solution for large-scale indoor Internet of Things (IoT) data backhaul, owing to its strong penetration capability and low power consumption. However, its default pure ALOHA access mechanism leads to severe…

An overarching issue in resource management of wireless networks is assessing their capacity: How much communication can be achieved in a network, utilizing all the tools available: power control, scheduling, routing, channel assignment and…

This paper investigates the energy efficiency (EE) optimization in downlink multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). In our research, the statistical channel state information (CSI) is exploited to reduce the signaling…

We consider the problem of designing an overlay network and routing mechanism that permits finding resources efficiently in a peer-to-peer system. We argue that many existing approaches to this problem can be modeled as the construction of…

This paper investigates relaying schemes in an amplify-and-forward multiple-input multiple-output relay network, where an energy-constrained relay harvests wireless power from the source information flow and can be further aided by an…

This paper studies RIS-aided cell-free massive MIMO systems, where multiple RISs are deployed to assist the communication between multiple access points (APs) and multiple users, with either continuous or discrete phase shifts at the RISs.…

LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) is emerging as an attractive network infrastructure for ultra low power Internet of Things devices. Even if the technology itself is quite mature and specified, the currently deployed wireless resource…
