One of the requirements of network slicing in 5G networks is RAN (radio access network) scheduling with rate guarantees. We study a three-time-scale algorithm for maximum sum utility scheduling, with minimum rate constraints. As usual, the…

This paper considers a single-hop wireless network where a central node (or fusion center, FC) collects data from a set of m energy harvesting (EH) nodes (e.g. nodes of a wireless sensor network). In each time slot, k of m nodes can be…

LoRa networks have been deployed all over the world and are a major enabling wireless technology for the Internet of Things (IoT). Massive connectivity applications such as smart metering, agriculture, and supply chain \& logistics are most…

This paper considers max-min fair rate allocation and routing in energy harvesting networks where fairness is required among both the nodes and the time slots. Unlike most previous work on fairness, we focus on multihop topologies and…

In this paper, we consider downlink low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite communication systems where multiple LEO satellites are uniformly distributed over a sphere at a certain altitude according to a homogeneous binomial point process (BPP).…

In this paper, we study wireless networks where nodes have two energy sources, namely a battery and radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting circuitry. We formulate two optimization problems with different objective functions, namely…

We consider scheduling problems in wireless networks with respect to flexible data rates. That is, more or less data can be transmitted per time depending on the signal quality, which is determined by the signal-to-interference-plus-noise…

Various system tasks like interference coordination, handover decisions, admission control etc. in current cellular networks require precise mid-term (spanning over a few seconds) performance models. Due to channel-dependent scheduling at…

In contemporary wireless communication networks, base-stations are organized into coordinated clusters (called cells) to jointly serve the users. However, such fixed systems are plagued by the so-called cell-edge problem: near the…

Long Range (LoRa) has become one of the most popular Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) technologies, which provides a desirable trade-off among communication range, battery life, and deployment cost. In LoRa networks, several transmission…

Interference mitigation strategies are deemed to play a key role in the context of the next generation (B4G/5G) of multicellular networks based on orthogonal frequency division multiple access. Fractional and soft frequency reuse (FFR, SFR)…

We consider an erasure multi-way relay channel (EMWRC) in which several users share their data through a relay over erasure links. Assuming no feedback channel between the users and the relay, we first identify the challenges for designing…

The max-min fairness (MMF) problem in rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) is known to be challenging due to its non-convex and non-smooth nature, as well as the coupled beamforming and common rate variables. Conventional algorithms to…

To increase the spectral efficiency of wireless networks without requiring full-duplex capability of user devices, a potential solution is the recently proposed three-node full-duplex mode. To realize this potential, networks employing…

Small cell enchantment is emerging as the key technique for wireless network evolution. One challenging problem for small cell enhancement is how to achieve high data rate with as-low-as-possible control and computation overheads. As a…

Distance-based attenuation is a critical aspect of wireless communications. As opposed to the ubiquitous power-law path loss model, this paper proposes a stretched exponential path loss model that is suitable for short-range communication.…
