Indoor environments present a significant challenge for wireless connectivity, as immense data demand strains traditional solutions. Public Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), utilizing outdoor macro base stations (BSs), suffer from poor…
The 3.55 - 3.7 GHz Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) band in the U.S., shared with incumbent Navy radars, is witnessing increasing deployments both indoors and outdoors using a shared, licensed model. Among the many use-cases of such…
In this paper, we conceive an advanced neutral host micro operator (NH-{\mu}O) network approach providing venues with services tailored to their specialized/specific requirements and/or local context related services that the mobile network…
In the US, people spend 87% of their time indoors and have an average of four connected devices per person (in 2020). As such, providing indoor coverage has always been a challenge but becomes even more difficult as carrier frequencies…
The conflicting problems of growing mobile service demand and underutilization of dedicated spectrum has given rise to a paradigm where mobile network operators (MNOs) share their infrastructure among themselves in order to lower their…
The millimeter wave spectra at 71-76GHz (70GHz) and 81-86GHz (80GHz) have the potential to endow fifth-generation new radio (5G-NR) with mobile connectivity at gigabit rates. However, a pressing issue is the presence of incumbent systems in…
Predictions for wireless and mobile Internet access suggest exponential traffic increase particularly in inbuilding environments. Non-traditional actors such as facility owners have a growing interest in deploying and operating their own…
The desirability of the mid-band frequency range (1 - 10 GHz) for federal and commercial applications, combined with the growing applications for commercial indoor use-cases, such as factory automation, opens up a new approach to spectrum…
New spectrum allocations in the 4--8 GHz FR1(C) and 7--24 GHz FR3 mid-band frequency spectrum are being considered for 5G/6G cellular deployments. This paper presents results from the world's first comprehensive indoor hotspot (InH)…
This paper develops a comprehensive framework to investigate and optimize the downlink performance of cooperative multi-band networks (MBNs) operating on upper mid-band (UMB) and terahertz (THz) frequencies, where base stations (BSs) in…
The fifth-generation (5G) and beyond networks are designed to efficiently utilize the spectrum resources to meet various quality of service (QoS) requirements. The unlicensed frequency bands used by WiFi are mainly deployed for indoor…
In past years, non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) have emerged as a viable solution for providing ubiquitous connectivity for future wireless networks due to their ability to reach large geographical areas. However, the efficient integration…
Capable of significantly reducing cell size and enhancing spatial reuse, network densification is shown to be one of the most dominant approaches to expand network capacity. Due to the scarcity of available spectrum resources, nevertheless,…
The ever-increasing demand for broadband and IoT wireless connectivity has recently urged the regulators around the world to start opening the 6 GHz spectrum for unlicensed use. These bands will, for example, permit the use of additional…
The introduction of Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) as a cellular IoT technology aims to support massive Machine-Type Communications applications. These applications are characterized by massive connections from a large number of…
Obtaining access to exclusive spectrum, cell sites, Radio Access Network (RAN) equipment, and edge infrastructure imposes major capital expenses to mobile network operators. A neutral host infrastructure, by which a third-party company…
In the context of 5G, infrastructure sharing has been identified as a potential solution to reduce the investment costs of cellular networks. In particular, it can help low-income regions build 5G networks more affordably and further bridge…
Wireless indoor coverage and data capacity are important aspects of cellular networks. With the ever-increasing data traffic, demand for more data capacity indoors is also growing. The lower frequencies of the legacy frequency bands of…
We consider a single-cell massive MIMO full-duplex wireless communication system, where the base-station (BS) is equipped with a large number of antennas. We consider the setup where the single-antenna mobile users operate in half- duplex,…
Due to large reflection and diffraction losses in the THz band, it is arguable to achieve reliable links in the none-line-of-sight (NLoS) cases. Intelligent reflecting surfaces, although are expected to solve the blockage problem and…
