Irregular repetition slotted aloha (IRSA) is a massive random access protocol which can be used to serve a large number of users while achieving a packet loss rate (PLR) close to zero. However, if the number of users is too high, then the…

Robust pulse synchronization is fundamental in constructing reliable synchronous applications in wired and wireless distributed systems. In wired systems, self-stabilizing Byzantine pulse synchronization aims for synchronizing fault-prone…

Distributed network optimization has been studied for well over a decade. However, we still do not have a good idea of how to design schemes that can simultaneously provide good performance across the dimensions of utility optimality,…

This work derives bounds on the jamming capacity of a slotted ALOHA system. A system with n legitimate users, each with a Bernoulli arrival process is considered. Packets are temporarily stored at the corresponding user queues, and a…

We study the problem of unsourced random access (URA) over Rayleigh block-fading channels with a receiver equipped with multiple antennas. We propose a slotted structure with multiple stages of orthogonal pilots, each of which is randomly…

L-band digital aeronautical communication system type-1 (L-DACS1) is an emerging standard that aims at enhancing air traffic management by transitioning the traditional analog aeronautical communication systems to the superior and highly…

As the transition from 5G to 6G unfolds, a substantial increase in Internet of Things (IoT) devices is expected, enabling seamless and pervasive connectivity across various applications. Accommodating this surge and meeting the high…

Supporting massive device transmission is challenging in Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications. Particularly, in event-driven M2M communications, a large number of devices activate within a short period of time, which in turn causes high…

This paper studies low-power random access protocols for timely status update systems with information freshness requirements, measured by age of information (AoI). In an extensive network, a fundamental challenge is scheduling a large…

As Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) becomes the standard approach for efficiently fine-tuning large language models (LLMs), shared clusters increasingly execute many concurrent LoRA training jobs over the same frozen backbone. While recent…

A non-regenerative dual-hop wireless system based on a distributed space-time coding strategy is considered. It is assumed that each relay retransmits an appropriately scaled space-time coded version of its received signal. The main goal of…

Minimizing the energy consumption of Linux-based devices is an essential step towards their wide deployment in various IoT scenarios. Energy saving methods such as duty-cycling aim to address this constraint by limiting the amount of time…

We investigate the performance of a random access network consisting of source-destination dipoles. The source nodes transmit information packets to their destinations over a shared spectrum. All the transmitters in this network adhere to…

The Internet of Things (IoT) enables a wide variety of applications where large sensor networks are deployed in remote areas without power grid access. Thus, the sensor nodes often run on batteries, whose replacement and disposal represent…

Recent proposals to simplify the operation of the IoT include the use of Information Centric Networking (ICN) paradigms. While this is promising, several challenges remain. In this paper, our core contributions (a) leverage ICN…

A renewal system divides the slotted timeline into back to back time periods called renewal frames. At the beginning of each frame, it chooses a policy from a set of options for that frame. The policy determines the duration of the frame,…

Irregular repetition slotted Aloha (IRSA) has shown significant advantages as a modern technique for uncoordinated random access with massive number of users due to its capability of achieving theoretically a throughput of $1$ packet per…

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks are making spectacular progress from design, standardisation, to commercialisation. At this time of fast-paced adoption, it is of utmost importance to analyse how well these technologies will scale as the…

Grant-free random access (GFRA) is now a popular protocol for large-scale wireless multiple access systems in order to reduce control signaling. Resource allocation in GFRA can be viewed as a form of frame slotted ALOHA, where a ubiquitous…

LoRaWAN has garnered tremendous attention owing to the low power consumption of end nodes, long range, high resistance to multipath, low cost, and use of license-free sub-GHz bands. Consequently, LoRaWAN is gradually replacing Wi-Fi and…
