Smart meters are being deployed globally on a trial basis and are expected to enable remote reading and demand response among other advanced functions, by setting up a two-way communication network. However, it remains to be determined as to how these meters will transmit their data to an aggregation point. An elegant solution to this problem is the use of cooperative communication in a neighborhood...
Millimeter wave (mmWave) and Device-to-Device (D2D) communications have been considered as the key enablers of the next generation networks. We consider a D2D-enabled hybrid cellular network compromising of macro-cells coexisting with mmWave small cells. We investigate the dynamic resource sharing in downlink transmission to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) of the priority, or cellular users...
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a major technique that is expected to lead towards the fifth generation (5G) wireless communication networks, as it involves the sharing of space resources among users in a given scenario. In this paper, we propose an uplink (UL) NOMA setup that utilizes the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) infrastructure. As performed in related literature, K clients...
Smart meters are being deployed worldwide on a trial basis and are expected to enable remote reading and demand response among other advanced functions, by establishing a two-way communication network. A possible technique for transmitting data to the aggregation point is the use of cooperative communication in the neighborhood area network. This paper presents an experimental comparison between cooperative...
In this paper, a pilot reuse scheme has been considered for the uplink (UL) transmissions of a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Subsequently, a lower bound on the throughput of the system, that uses a maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver, has been derived, which is applicable for any number of antennas. The throughput, along with other metrics, has been used to differentiate...
Smart meters are being deployed worldwide on a trial basis and are expected to enable remote reading and demand response among other advanced functions, by establishing a two-way communication network. However, it remains to be determined as to how these meters would transmit their data to an aggregation point. Our paper employs a medium access control (MAC) protocol for a cooperative network to address...
