Sharing Virtualized Network Functions (VNFs) among different slices in Fifth Generation (5G) is a potential strategy to simplify the system implementation and utilize 5G resources efficiently. In this paper, we propose a security-aware VNF…

6G wireless networks will require the flexibility to accommodate an extremely diverse set of service types. This necessitates the use of mixed numerologies to accommodate different quality of service (QoS) requirements. Non-orthogonal…

Network slicing is essential for transforming future telecommunication networks into versatile service platforms, but it also presents challenges for sustainable network operations. While meeting the requirements of network slices incurs…

Network slicing is a fundamental feature of 5G systems to partition a single network into a number of segregated logical networks, each optimized for a particular type of service, or dedicated to a particular customer or application. The…

Effective network slicing requires an infrastructure/network provider to deal with the uncertain demand and real-time dynamics of network resource requests. Another challenge is the combinatorial optimization of numerous resources, e.g.,…

We develop distributed algorithms to allocate resources in multi-hop wireless networks with the aim of minimizing total cost. In order to observe the fundamental duplexing constraint that co-located transmitters and receivers cannot operate…

In this paper, we study an aerial drone base station (DBS) assisted cellular network that consists of a single ground macro base station (MBS), multiple DBSs, and multiple ground terminals (GT). We assume that the MBS transmits to the DBSs…

Network slicing enables multiple virtual networks to be instantiated and customized to meet heterogeneous use case requirements over 5G and beyond network deployments. However, most of the solutions available today face scalability issues…

Network slicing is a critical technique for 5G communications that covers radio access network (RAN), edge, transport and core slicing.The evolving network architecture requires the orchestration of multiple network resources such as radio…

As emerging networks such as Open Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) and 5G continue to grow, the demand for various services with different requirements is increasing. Network slicing has emerged as a potential solution to address the different…

The network slice management function (NSMF) in 5G has a task to configure the network slice instances and to combine network slice subnet instances from the new-generation radio access network and the core network into an end-to-end…

Network slicing enables the operator to configure virtual network instances for diverse services with specific requirements. To achieve the slice-aware radio resource scheduling, dynamic slicing resource partitioning is needed to…

In an attempt to utilize spectrum resources more efficiently, protocols sharing licensed spectrum with unlicensed users are receiving increased attention. From the perspective of cellular networks, spectrum underutilization makes spatial…

The ever increasing number of connected devices and of new and heterogeneous mobile use cases implies that 5G cellular systems will face demanding technical challenges. For example, Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC) and…

Providing Internet connectivity to a massive number of Internet-of-things (IoT) objects over the unlicensed spectrum requires: (i) identifying a very large number of narrowband channels in a wideband spectrum and (ii) aggressively reusing…

Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven zero-touch network slicing (NS) is a new paradigm enabling the automation of resource management and orchestration (MANO) in multi-tenant beyond 5G (B5G) networks. In this paper, we tackle the problem of…

In this paper, we investigate a key problem of Narrowband-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) in the context of 5G with Mobile Edge Computing (MEC). We address the challenge that IoT devices may have different priorities when demanding bandwidth…

This paper studies the problem of distributed beam scheduling for 5G millimeter-Wave (mm-Wave) cellular networks where base stations (BSs) belonging to different operators share the same spectrum without centralized coordination among them.…

End-to-End (E2E) network slicing enables wireless networks to provide diverse services on a common infrastructure. Each E2E slice, including resources of radio access network (RAN) and core network, is rented to mobile virtual network…

The evolution of the future beyond-5G/6G networks towards a service-aware network is based on network slicing technology. With network slicing, communication service providers seek to meet all the requirements imposed by the verticals,…
