This paper investigates the user grouping problem of downlink wireless local area networks (WLANs) with multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO). Particularly, we focus on the problem of whether single user transmit beamforming (SU-TxBF) or MU-MIMO should…

We propose a combined uplink/downlink opportunistic scheduling algorithm for infrastructure WLANs. In the presence of both uplink and downlink flows, an infrastructure WLAN suffers from the uplink/downlink unfairness problem which severely…

The IEEE 802.11ac standard introduces new downlink multi-user MIMO (DL-MU-MIMO) transmissions to up to four users in order to increase spatial reuse in wireless local area networks (WLANs). We argue that even better WLAN per- formance can…

IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) introduces a new concept called multi-link operation (MLO), which allows multiple Wi-Fi interfaces in different bands (2.4, 5, and 6 GHz) to work together to increase network throughput, reduce latency, and improve…

Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) have gained popularity in Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) due to their high modulation bandwidth, narrow spectral width, and directional beam, offering improved spectral efficiency and…

The design of distributed mechanisms for interference management is one of the key challenges in emerging wireless small cell networks whose backhaul is capacity limited and heterogeneous (wired, wireless and a mix thereof). In this paper,…

In this paper we suggest a novel idea to improve the Throughput of a rapidly chang- ing WiFi channel by exploiting the standard aggregation schemes in IEEE 802.11ac networks, and by transmitting several copies of the same MPDU(s) in a…

The WLAN packet format has a short training field (STF) for synchronization followed by a long training field (LTF) for channel estimation. To enable MIMO channel estimation, the LTF is repeated as many times as the number of spatial…

Machine learning (ML) can be used in various ways to improve multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) receive processing. Typical approaches either augment a single processing step, such as symbol detection, or replace multiple…

To compensate the loss from outdated channel state information in wideband massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) systems, channel prediction can be performed by leveraging the temporal correlation of wireless channels. Machine…

This paper investigates the use of multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to address distributed channel access in wireless local area networks. In particular, we consider the challenging yet more practical case where the agents…

We consider multiple transmitters aiming to communicate their source signals (e.g., images) over a multiple access channel (MAC). Conventional communication systems minimize interference by orthogonally allocating resources (time and/or…

Machine learning (ML) starts to be widely used to enhance the performance of multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) receivers. However, it is still unclear if such methods are truly competitive with respect to conventional…

In this letter, we propose a novel model and corresponding algorithms to address the optimal utility max-min fair link adaptation in Downlink Multi-User (DL-MU) feature of the emerging IEEE 802.11ac WLAN standard. Herein, we first propose a…

Device mobility in dense Wi-Fi networks offers several challenges. Two well-known problems related to device mobility are handover prediction and access point selection. Due to the complex nature of the radio environment, analytical models…

Downlink beamforming is an essential technology for wireless cellular networks; however, the design of beamforming vectors that maximize the weighted sum rate (WSR) is an NP-hard problem and iterative algorithms are typically applied to…

Traffic optimization challenges, such as load balancing, flow scheduling, and improving packet delivery time, are difficult online decision-making problems in wide area networks (WAN). Complex heuristics are needed for instance to find…

Beam management (BM) protocols are critical for establishing and maintaining connectivity between network radio nodes and User Equipments (UEs). In Distributed Multiple Input Multiple Output systems (D-MIMO), a number of access points…

By allowing a large number of links to be simultaneously transmitted, directional antenna arrays with beamforming have been envisioned as a promising candidate to reach unprecedented levels of spatial isolation. To achieve the high…

We consider a heterogeneous network (HetNet) of base stations (BSs) connected via a backhaul network of routers and wired/wireless links with limited capacity. The optimal provision of such networks requires proper resource allocation…
