We consider a massive Internet of Things (IoT) scenario where indoor IoT devices access the network via optical wireless communication (OWC) IoT systems that relay data via a backhaul radio frequency (RF) low-power wide-area network (LP…

We consider a frame asynchronous coded slotted ALOHA (FA-CSA) system for uncoordinated multiple access, where users join the system on a slot-by-slot basis according to a Poisson random process and, in contrast to standard frame synchronous…

Accommodating the needs of a large number of diverse users in the Internet of Things (IoT), notably managing how the users access the common channel, has posed unique challenges to the network designers. In this paper, we study a…

The present paper focuses on an IoT setting in which a large number of devices generate time-stamped updates addressed to a common gateway. Medium access is regulated following a grant-free approach, and the system aims at maintaining an…

In large-scale resource-constrained wireless networks, such as those prevalent in the Internet of Things (IoT), efficient communication scheduling remains a critical challenge. Among the various approaches, Time Division Multiple Access…

Federated Learning (FL) has gained increasing interest in recent years as a distributed on-device learning paradigm. However, multiple challenges remain to be addressed for deploying FL in real-world Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks with…

LoraWAN has turned out to be one of the most successful frameworks in IoT devices. Real world scenarios demand the use of such networks along with a robust stream processing application layer. To maintain the exactly once processing…

This paper deals with a two-way relay network (TWRN) based on a slotted ALOHA protocol which utilizes network coding to exchange the packets. We proposed an analytical approach to study the behavior of such networks and the effects of…

Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) are wireless connectivity solutions for Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, including industrial automation. Among the several LPWAN technologies, LoRaWAN has been extensively addressed by the…

Grant Free Random Access (GFRA) is a popular protocol in the Internet of Things (IoT) to reduce the control signaling. GFRA is a framed protocol where each frame is split into two parts: device identification; and data transmission part…

This paper presents a finite length analysis of multi-slot type frameless ALOHA based on a dynamic programming approach. The analysis is exact, but its evaluation is only feasible for moderate number of users due to the computational…

We evaluate a modification of irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) involving intermediate decoding and early transmission termination by some nodes, upon their decoding success. This is meant to avoid unnecessary transmissions, thereby…

Wireless sensor and actuator networks are gaining momentum in the era of Industrial Internet of Things IIoT. The usage of the close-loop data from sensors in the manufacturing chain is extending the common monitoring scenario of the…

We propose a high-performance yet low-complexity hierarchical frequency synchronization scheme for orthogonal frequency-division multiple-access (OFDMA) aided distributed massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems, where multi-ple…

A wireless sensor network is composed of many sensor nodes that have been given out in a specific zone and each of them had an ability of collecting information from the environment and sending collected data to the sink. The most…

Based on a stochastic geometry framework, we establish an analysis of the multi-hop spatial reuse aloha protocol (MSR-Aloha) in ad hoc networks. We compare MSR-Aloha to a simple routing strategy, where a node selects the next relay of the…

Distributed systems, such as state machine replication, are critical infrastructures for modern applications. Practical distributed protocols make minimum assumptions about the underlying network: They typically assume a partially…

Slotted ALOHA (SA) algorithms with Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) decoding have received significant attention lately due to their ability to dramatically increase the throughput of traditional SA. Motivated by increased density…

We consider ALOHA and slotted ALOHA protocols as medium access rules for a multi-channel message delivery system. Users decide randomly and independently with a minimal amount of knowledge about the system at random times to make a message…

We propose an uncoordinated all-to-all broadcast protocol for periodic messages in vehicular networks based on coded slotted ALOHA (CSA). Unlike classical CSA, each user acts as both transmitter and receiver in a half-duplex mode. As in…
