Full-duplex (FD) wireless communication systems have become an important research issue since it can increase spectral efficiency through higher spectrum utilization. The main challenge in achieving FD is the cancellation of strong interference at the received interface from the transmitted interface of a node, namely, self-interference (SI). Therefore, a technique for SI cancellation using an oblique...
The software-defined approach of cloud radio access networks (C-RANs) enables supporting multiple virtual operators (VOs) on the same physical infrastructure. In this shared environment, a coordinator is needed to manage the sharing of resources between the VOs. Designing a coordinator is about striking a good balance between the flexibility given to the VOs, and the efficiency of the resource utilization...
In this paper, we study joint design of linear hybrid precoding and equalization for full-duplex (FD) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems such that the sum mean squared error is minimized across all mobile stations. To better resolve practical issues such as hardware complexity, power consumption, and overhead of channel estimation, hybrid processing, which consists of digital processing...
Highly dense wireless networks is one of the most important solutions for spectrum shortage expected by 2020. Motivated by a generally assumption that direct links between users in HD-MWR networks are usually ignored, this paper proposes high-dense multiway relay (HD-MWR) networks exploiting available direct links as side information (SI) to serve even higher number of users or devices required for...
In this paper, we study resource allocation in full-duplex OFDMA networks. We explore the joint optimization of subcarrier assignment, uplink-downlink user pairing, and power allocation to maximize the overall throughput with consideration of self-interference and inter-node interference. By using the dual method, we can decompose the original optimization problem into a primal problem and a dual...
Full-duplex (FD) has emerged as a promising solution for increasing the data rate of wireless communication systems. With FD, a wireless terminal can transmit and receive concurrently at the same frequency band. This paper focuses on the resource allocation in a FD multiuser system. With a FD-enabled base-station (BS) and multiple half-duplex (HD) mobile stations (MS), we are interested in jointly...
In future Internet of Things (IoT) networks, the explosive growth of mobile devices compel us to reconsider the effectiveness of the current frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) schemes. Devices' differentiated mobility features and diversified scattering environments make it more complicated to characterize the multi-user interference. In this paper, we thoroughly analyze the impacts of devices'...
In this paper, we develop a comprehensive analytical framework to characterize the performance of device-centric content availability in device-to-device (D2D) networks. Modeling the locations of devices as a variant of Thomas cluster process, we derive the coverage probability of a typical device when its content of interest is available at its kth closest device within the same cluster. Using the...
In this paper, statistical Quality of Service provisioning in next generation heterogeneous mobile cellular networks is investigated. To this aim, any active entity of the cellular network is regarded as a queuing system, whose statistical QoS requirements depend on the specific application. In this context, by quantifying the performance in terms of effective capacity, we introduce a lower bound...
In this paper, we analyze Luby Transform (LT) codes with unequal recovery time (URT-LT) and intermediate feedback. Different sets of information symbols within a message block are allocated different priorities, where the higher prioritized sets are to be recovered in a shorter time. We divide the encoding process into stages where in each stage different sets are allocated different selection probabilities...
Energy harvesting point-to-point communications are considered. The transmitter harvests energy from the environment and stores it in a finite battery. It is assumed that the transmitter has always data to transmit and the harvested energy is used exclusively for data transmission. As in practical scenarios prior knowledge about the energy harvesting process might not be available, we assume that...
Recent successful demonstrations of radios for in-band full-duplex (IBFD) wireless systems offer interesting network-level case studies. The impact of such a capability on a cellular network as a whole is an open research area. IBFD self-backhauling for small cells is one interesting use case of such a capability proposed in this paper. It refers to the use of same frequency band for backhaul and...
In this paper, we considers the resource allocation problems for video transmission in space based information networks. The queueing system analyzed in this work is composed of multiple users and a single server. To minimize both of the time average cost and delay of the system, and subject to the constraint that the queues in the system must be stable, we introduce a predictive backpressure algorithm...
Recent studies indicate the feasibility of in-band full-duplex (FD) wireless communications, where a wireless radio transmits and receives simultaneously in the same band. Due to its potential to increase the capacity, analyzing the performance of a cellular network that contains full-duplex devices is crucial. In this paper, we consider maximizing the weighted sum-rate of downlink and uplink of a...
Frame aggregation (FA) mechanisms improve the throughput of WLANs. In this paper, the effect of the FA mechanism on the throughput of wireless local area networks (WLANs) has been investigated. To this end, we propose an analytical model in order to analyze an IEEE 802.11n network comprised of an access point (AP) and several conventional nodes (CNs), all in the coverage area of each other. With respect...
In Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) network, Machine Type Communications (MTC) allows machines to transfer data with almost no human intervention. In MTC, power saving is one of the most important issues. In the meantime, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) proposes Discontinuous Reception (DRX) mechanism to allow user equipments (UEs) to receive data only at specified time slots and...
Self-interference (SI) significantly limits the performance of full-duplex (FD) radio devices if not properly cancelled. State-of-the-art SI cancellation (SIC) techniques at the receive chain implicitly set an upper bound on the transmit power of the device. This paper starts from this observation and proposes a transmit beamforming design for FD multiple-antenna radios that: i) leverages the inherent...
Our contribution in this paper is to propose a new solution called EQ-AODV (Energy and QoS supported AODV) for better performance in WMSNs (Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks). EQ-AODV aims to improve AODV protocol and make it effective for multimedia data in WMSNs. This improvement is based on the adaptation of the routing process of AODV according to two parameters. The first one is the energy...
Full-Duplex (FD) transceivers may be expensive in terms of complexity, power consumption, and price to be implemented in all user terminals. Therefore, techniques to exploit in-band full-duplex communication with FD base stations (BSs) and half-duplex (HD) users' equipment (UEs) are required. In this context, 3-node topology (3NT) has been recently proposed for FD BSs to reuse the uplink (UL) and...
Energy balance is a critical issue in wireless sensor networks. Several mixed data transmission (MDT) schemes have been proposed to achieve energy balance. However, most existing works are lack of theoretical study, especially understanding the relationship between network-wide energy balancing and lifetime optimization. In this paper, we conduct comprehensive theoretical analysis to the two-level...
