Mobile edge computing is a new cloud computing paradigm which makes use of small-sized edge-clouds to provide real-time services to users. These mobile edge-clouds (MECs) are located in close proximity to users, thus enabling users to…
Server deployment is a fundamental task in mobile edge computing: where to place the edge servers and what user cells to assign to them. To make this decision is context-specific, but common goals are 1) computing efficiency: maximize the…
The surge of mobile data traffic forces network operators to cope with capacity shortage. The deployment of small cells in 5G networks is meant to reduce latency, backhaul traffic and increase radio access capacity. In this context, mobile…
5G/6G sidelink communications addresses the challenge of connecting outer UEs, which are unable to directly access a base station (gNodeB), through inner UEs that act as relays to connect to the gNodeB. The key performance indicators…
