Heterogeneous networks have been studied as one of the enablers of network densification. These studies have been intensified to overcome some drawbacks related to propagation in millimeter waves (mmWaves), such as severe path and…

Network slicing enables the deployment of multiple dedicated virtual sub-networks, i.e. slices on a shared physical infrastructure. Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all resource provisioning schemes, each network slice (NS) in 5G is…

Neighbor discovery plays a crucial role in the formation of wireless sensor networks and mobile networks where the power of sensors (or mobile devices) is constrained. Due to the difficulty of clock synchronization, many asynchronous…

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is a key player in low latency 5G networks with the task to resolve the conflict between computationally-intensive mobile applications and resource-limited mobile devices (MDs). As such, there has been intense…

Modeling the locations of nodes as a uniform binomial point process (BPP), we present a generic mathematical framework to characterize the performance of an arbitrarily-located reference receiver in a finite wireless network. Different from…

We consider load balancing in large-scale heterogeneous server systems in the presence of data locality that imposes constraints on which tasks can be assigned to which servers. The constraints are naturally captured by a bipartite graph…

In terrestrial communication networks without fixed infrastructure, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-mounted mobile base stations (MBSs) provide an efficient solution to achieve wireless connectivity. This letter aims to minimize the number of…

The problem of placement of mesh router nodes in Wireless Mesh Networks is known to be a NP hard problem. In this paper, the problem is addressed under a constraint of network model tied to rural regions where we usually observe low density…

We consider the problem of localization and distance estimation between a pair of wireless nodes in a multipath propagation environment, but not the usual way of processing a channel measurement between them. We propose a novel paradigm…

Wireless charging is a promising way to power wireless nodes' transmissions. This paper considers new dual-function access points (APs) which are able to support the energy/information transmission to/from wireless nodes. We focus on a…

The design of distributed autonomous systems for operation beyond reliable ground contact presents a fundamental tension: as round-trip communication latency grows, the set of decisions delegable to ground operators shrinks. This paper…

The area of networking games has had a growing impact on wireless networks. This reflects the recognition in the important scaling advantages that the service providers can benefit from by increasing the autonomy of mobiles in decision…

Many applications have been identified which require the deployment of large-scale low-power wireless sensor networks. Some of the deployment environments, however, impose harsh operation conditions due to intense cross-technology…

In a heterogeneous wireless cellular network, each user may be covered by multiple access points such as macro/pico/relay/femto base stations (BS). An effective approach to maximize the sum utility (e.g., system throughput) in such a…

The issue of spectrum scarcity in wireless networks is becoming prominent and critical with each passing year. Although several promising solutions have been proposed to provide a solution to spectrum scarcity, most of them have many…

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) contain numerous sensor nodes having limited power resource, which report sensed data to the Base Station (BS) that requires high energy usage. Many routing protocols have been proposed in this regard…

This paper surveys and unifies a number of recent contributions that have collectively developed a metric for decentralized wireless network analysis known as transmission capacity. Although it is notoriously difficult to derive general…
