The thesis is dedicated to studying methods to improve the efficiency of random access schemes and to facilitate their deployment in machine-type communications (MTC). First, a joint user activity identification and channel estimation…

In secure summation, $K$ users, each holds an input, wish to compute the sum of the inputs at a server without revealing any information about {\em all the inputs} even if the server may collude with {\em an arbitrary subset of users}. In…

Consider $L$ users, who each hold private data, and one fusion center who must compute a function of the private data of the $L$ users. To accomplish this task, each user may utilize a public and noiseless broadcast channel in a…

We consider a multi-agent network where each node has a stochastic (local) cost function that depends on the decision variable of that node and a random variable, and further the decision variables of neighboring nodes are pairwise…

We propose SwiftAgg, a novel secure aggregation protocol for federated learning systems, where a central server aggregates local models of $N$ distributed users, each of size $L$, trained on their local data, in a privacy-preserving manner.…

UAVs are capable of improving the performance of next generation wireless systems. Specifically, UAVs can be exploited as aerial base-stations (UAV-BS) for supporting legitimate ground users in remote uncovered areas or in environments…

The emergence of the Internet-of-Things and cyber-physical systems necessitates the coordination of access to limited communication resources in an autonomous and distributed fashion. Herein, the optimal design of a wireless sensing system…

In this work, we focus on solving a decentralized consensus problem in a private manner. Specifically, we consider a setting in which a group of nodes, connected through a network, aim at computing the mean of their local values without…

This paper develops algorithms for decentralized machine learning over a network, where data are distributed, computation is localized, and communication is restricted between neighbors. A line of recent research in this area focuses on…

Dynamic spectrum access (DSA) is regarded as an effective and efficient technology to share radio spectrum among different networks. As a secondary user (SU), a DSA device will face two critical problems: avoiding causing harmful…

In this paper, we investigate the transmission latency of the secure aggregation problem in a \emph{wireless} federated learning system with multiple curious servers. We propose a privacy-preserving coded aggregation scheme where the…

This paper considers a random access system where each sender can be in two modes of operation, active or not active, and where the set of active users is available to a common receiver only. Active transmitters encode data into independent…

We propose a distributed spectrum access algorithm for cognitive radio relay networks with multiple primary users (PU) and multiple secondary users (SU). The key idea behind the proposed algorithm is that the PUs negotiate with the SUs on…

Privacy-preserving data aggregation in ad hoc networks is a challenging problem, considering the distributed communication and control requirement, dynamic network topology, unreliable communication links, etc. Different from the widely…

We study information-theoretic security for discrete memoryless interference and broadcast channels with independent confidential messages sent to two receivers. Confidential messages are transmitted to their respective receivers with…

We consider distributed optimization over a $d$-dimensional space, where $K$ remote clients send coded gradient estimates over an {\em additive Gaussian Multiple Access Channel (MAC)} with noise variance $\sigma_z^2$. Furthermore, the…

We consider the multiple-access communication problem in a distributed setting for both the additive white Gaussian noise channel and the discrete memoryless channel. We propose a scheme called Distributed Rate Splitting to achieve the…

This paper focuses on decentralized composite optimization over networks without a central coordinator. We propose a novel decentralized symmetric ADMM algorithm that incorporates multiple communication rounds within each iteration, derived…

In this paper, the fundamental limits of decentralized simultaneous information and energy transmission in the $K$-user Gaussian multiple access channel (G-MAC), with an arbitrary $K \geqslant 2$ and one non-colocated energy harvester (EH),…

Decentralized optimization, particularly the class of decentralized composite convex optimization (DCCO) problems, has found many applications. Due to ubiquitous communication congestion and random dropouts in practice, it is highly…
