With millimeter wave bands emerging as a strong candidate for 5G cellular networks, next-generation systems may be in a unique position where spectrum is plentiful. To assess the potential value of this spectrum, this paper derives scaling…

We study a continuous-time dynamical system of nodes diffusively coupled over a hierarchical network to examine the efficiency and performance tradeoffs that organizations, teams, and command and control units face while achieving…

Ad-hoc networks are independent of any infrastructure. The nodes are autonomous and make their own decisions. They also have limited energy resources. Thus, a node tends to behave selfishly when it is asked to forward the packets of other…

In this paper, a lower bound on the capacity of wireless ad hoc erasure networks is derived in closed form in the canonical case where $n$ nodes are uniformly and independently distributed in the unit area square. The bound holds almost…

In this paper, we propose a novel decentralized framework for optimizing the transmission strategy of Irregular Repetition Slotted ALOHA (IRSA) protocol in sensor networks. We consider a hierarchical communication framework that ensures…

We introduce \emph{ScalableMax}, a novel communication scheme for achieving max-consensus in a network of multiple agents which harnesses the interference in the wireless channel as well as its multicast capabilities. In a sufficiently…

An analog communication channel typically achieves its full capacity when the distribution of inputs is discrete, composed of just K symbols, such as voltage levels or wavelengths. As the effective noise level goes to zero, for example by…

Many real networks in nature and society share two generic properties: they are scale-free and they display a high degree of clustering. We show that these two features are the consequence of a hierarchical organization, implying that small…

Wireless access through a large distributed network of low-complexity infrastructure nodes empowered with cooperation and coordination capabilities, is an emerging radio architecture, candidate to deal with the mobile data capacity crunch.…

In this letter, we propose a new routing strategy with a single free parameter $\alpha$ only based on local information of network topology. In order to maximize the packets handling capacity of underlying structure that can be measured by…

The transmission capacity of an ad-hoc network is the maximum density of active transmitters per unit area, given an outage constraint at each receiver for a fixed rate of transmission. Most prior work on finding the transmission capacity…

This paper develops a framework for analyzing and designing dynamic networks comprising different classes of nodes that coexist and interact in one shared environment. We consider {\em ad hoc} (i.e., nodes can leave the network unannounced,…

Capacity gain from transmitter and receiver cooperation are compared in a relay network where the cooperating nodes are close together. When all nodes have equal average transmit power along with full channel state information (CSI), it is…

If each node of an idealized network has an equal capacity to efficiently exchange benefits, then the network's capacity to use energy is scaled by the average amount of energy required to connect any two of its nodes. The scaling factor…

This article introduces a metric for performance evaluation of medium access schemes in wireless ad hoc networks known as local capacity. Although deriving the end-to-end capacity of wireless ad hoc networks is a difficult problem, the…

We introduce a framework to study slotted Aloha with cooperative base stations. Assuming a geographic-proximity communication model, we propose several decoding algorithmswith different degrees of base stations' cooperation…

When implementing hierarchical federated learning over wireless networks, scalability assurance and the ability to handle both interference and device data heterogeneity are crucial. This work introduces a new two-level learning method…

In network models of spiking neurons, the joint impact of network structure and synaptic parameters on activity propagation is still an open problem. Here we use an information-theoretical approach to investigate activity propagation in…

The underwater acoustic channel is characterized by a path loss that depends not only on the transmission distance, but also on the signal frequency. Signals transmitted from one user to another over a distance $l$ are subject to a power…

An intuitive overview of the scalability of a variety of types of wireless networks is presented. Simple heuris- tic arguments are demonstrated here for scaling laws presented in other works, as well as for conditions not previously…
