Multicast transmission and wireless caching are effective ways of reducing air and backhaul traffic load in wireless networks. This paper proposes to incorporate these two key ideas for content-centric multicast transmission in a cloud…

The concept of AI-RAN as specified by the AI-RAN alliance is geared to explore a converged 6G platform that can support management, orchestration, and deployment of both AI and RAN workloads. This concept is central to the development of a…

Fog Radio Access Network (F-RAN) exploits cached contents at edge nodes (ENs) and fronthaul connection to the cloud for content delivery. Assuming dedicated fronthaul links between cloud and each EN, previous works focused on analyses of…

Current Distributed Radio Access Networks~(D-RANs), which are characterized by a static configuration and deployment of Base Stations~(BSs), have exposed their limitations in handling the temporal and geographical fluctuations of capacity…

This paper aims to characterize the synergy of distributed caching and wireless fronthaul in a fog radio access network (Fog-RAN) where all edge nodes (ENs) and user equipments (UEs) have a local cache and store contents independently at…

Centralized coded caching and delivery is studied for a partially-connected fog radio access network (F-RAN), whereby a set of H edge nodes (ENs) (without caches), connected to a cloud server via orthogonal fronthaul links, serve K users…

The recent adaption of virtualization technologies in the next generation mobile network enables 5G base station to be segregated into a Radio Unit (RU), a Distributed Unit (DU), and a Central Unit (CU) to support Cloud based Radio Access…

O-RAN systems and their deployment in virtualized general-purpose computing platforms (O-Cloud) constitute a paradigm shift expected to bring unprecedented performance gains. However, these architectures raise new implementation challenges…

We consider a virtualized RAN architecture for 5G networks where the Remote Units are connected to a central unit via a mid-haul. To support high data rates, the midhaul is realized with a Passive Optical Network (PON). In this…

In this paper, we investigate the joint beamforming and power splitting design problem in a base station (BS) cluster-based cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with multicast fronthaul, where users are jointly served by BSs within each…

The performance of cloud radio access network (C-RAN) is limited by the finite capacities of the backhaul links connecting the centralized processor (CP) with the base-stations (BSs), especially when the backhaul is implemented in a…

Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is a prominent architecture for 5G wireless cellular system that is based on the centralization of baseband processing for multiple distributed radio units (RUs) at a control unit (CU). In this work, it is…

Cloud radio access networks (C-RAN) are a promising technology to enable the ambitious vision of the fifth generation (5G) communication networks. In spite of the potential benefits of C-RAN, the operational costs are still a challenging…

As virtualization of Radio Access Networks (RAN) gains momentum, understanding the impact of hardware and software disaggregation on resiliency becomes critical to meet the high availability requirements of mobile networks. Our paper…

The radio access network (RAN) landscape is undergoing a transformative shift from traditional, communication-centric infrastructures towards converged compute-communication platforms. This article introduces AI-RAN which integrates both…

Vertical federated learning (FL) is a collaborative machine learning framework that enables devices to learn a global model from the feature-partition datasets without sharing local raw data. However, as the number of the local intermediate…

The increasing parallelism of many-core systems demands for efficient strategies for the run-time system management. Due to the large number of cores the management overhead has a rising impact to the overall system performance. This work…

A key problem in the design of cloud radio access networks (CRANs) is that of devising effective baseband compression strategies for transmission on the fronthaul links connecting a remote radio head (RRH) to the managing central unit (CU).…

Recently, an evolution of the Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) has been proposed, named as Fog Radio Access Network (F-RAN). Compared to C-RAN, the Radio Units (RUs) in F-CAN are equipped with local caches, which can store some frequently…

It is known that data rates in standard cellular networks are limited due to inter-cell interference. An effective solution of this problem is to use the multi-cell cooperation idea. In Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), which is a…
