In traditional cellular networks, cell edge users suffer from severe interference. This paper considers a cell free network scenario that multiple base stations (BSs) serve a group of users without cell boundary. Each user can only be served by its own BS according to the traditional cellular network paradigm, while in the user centric cell free network, users can be associated with multiple nearby...
We study energy-efficient secure link adaptation for large-scale device-to-device (D2D) underlaid cellular networks, where base stations (BSs), D2D transmitters, and eavesdroppers (Eve nodes) are distributed as independent homogeneous Poisson point processes. First, we analyze the impact of the underlaid D2D network on the secrecy performance, i.e., secrecy spectral efficiency (SE) and secrecy energy...
We investigate the energy efficiency (EE) maximization problem under the scenario of Device-to-Device (D2D) communications underlaying cellular networks. By jointly considering time-varying channels and stochastic arrivals, we propose a distributed power allocation algorithm for both D2D user groups (DUGs) and cellular user terminals (CUTs) with long- term quality of service (QoS) provision. To effectively...
In this paper, we study joint energy cooperation and traffic management in renewable energy powered cellular system where a centralized unit manages the traffic and the energy cooperation among BSs. We first formulate a stochastic optimization problem which aims at minimizing the total on-grid energy consumption while satisfying the quality-of-service (QoS) requirement of classes of services, i.e...
Recently, mobile cloud offloading is a promising technique to deal with the increasingly complex applications on mobile devices, meeting the ever- increasing energy requirements. However, cloud offloading with multiple mobile devices may cause considerable mutual interference, which may result in intolerable time delay and more energy consumption. In this paper, a novel offloading decision method...
To achieve a significant boost on capacity performance in the next generation (5G) cellular network, novel radio access technologies (RAT) are demanded to make the system more spectrum efficient. As a promising multiple access scheme for 5G cellular network, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has attracted extensive research attention recently. Existing works show that NOMA posses the potential...
Video streaming applications and services (VASs) consume an enormous amount of scarce resources in mobile devices and cellular wireless networks due to the demand for high data rates of video streaming. The limited resource of wireless media and unreliable nature of wireless channels in cellular networks make VASs challenging to deliver videos at high quality of experience (QoE). Therefore, in this...
Abstract-Research efforts to incorporate multicast and broadcast transmission into the cellular network architecture are gaining momentum, particularly for multimedia streaming applications. Layered division multiplexing (LDM), a form of nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA), can potentially improve unicast throughput and broadcast coverage with respect to traditional orthogonal frequency division...
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is one of the key technologies to get to very high data rates in future 5G networks through offloading part of the cellular traffic onto D2D networks. While extensive research is targeted on addressing the many challenges D2D brings along in cellular networks, security issues have not gained much attention, especially that the direct connections between proximity...
The popularity of personal devices has been creating a new location-based content era, where users produce, share and access content anytime and anywhere. Mobile devices in the same area can cooperate to each other by using a Device-to-Device (D2D) communication and maximize the usage of network resources and allow the creation of new applications and experiences. In this paper, we investigate the...
In this paper, we propose a new downlink non-orthogonal multiuser superposition transmission scheme for future 5G cellular networks, which we refer to as the lattice partition multiple access (LPMA). In this proposed design, the base station transmits multilevel lattice codes for multiple users. Each user's code level corresponds to a distinct prime and is weighted by a product of all distinct primes...
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications are considered as one of the key technologies for 5G wireless communication systems. In this paper, a frequency reuse scheme, in which multiple D2D links share spectrum resources with multiple cellular links simultaneously, is studied. Two novel concepts are introduced, namely the D2D pool and the cellular pool. D2D links in the D2D pool reuse uplink resource...
In this paper, we present a stochastic geometry based framework to analyze the coverage probability and ergodic rate with different channel allocations for device-to-device (D2D) communications. Different from existing works, we assume there are two different kinds of users, cellular users and D2D users, in the muti-channel uplink cellular network. Specifically, cellular users can upload data to the...
The growing density of cellular users is placing an unprecedented demand on radio spectrum. Cognitive cellular networks can alleviate spectrum demand through dynamic spectrum access. In order to be fully functional, cellular users not only need spectrum access but also require network access. However, a cellular carrier grants network access only to accredited users. In this paper, we focus on the...
Modern cellular networks utilising the long-term evolution (LTE) and the coming 5G set of standards face an ever-increasing demand for low-latency mobile data from connected devices. Header compression is employed to minimise the overhead for IP-based cellular network traffic, thereby decreasing the overall bandwidth usage and, subsequently, transmission delays. We employ machine learning approaches...
In this paper, we consider device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular networks, where D2D users harvest radio frequency (RF) power from uplink cellular transmissions. This paper addresses two important issues for energy harvesting-based D2D cellular networks. The first is how the energy harvested from cellular ambient RF signals affects the D2D spectral efficiency. Using tools from...
In this paper, we provide an analytical framework to analyze heterogeneous downlink mmWave cellular networks consisting of tiers of randomly located base stations (BSs) where each tier operates in a mmWave frequency band. Signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) coverage probability is derived for the entire network using tools from stochastic geometry. The distinguishing features of mmWave...

We further study an underlay spectrum sharing between the 3D DSCs network and traditional cellular networks modeled by 2D Poisson Point Processes. We derive the explicit expressions for the downlink DSCs coverage probability and achievable throughput.We obtain the optimal density of DSCs aerial base stations...
Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications have attracted great attention from both academia and industry. In this paper, with recent advances in wireless network virtualization and software- defined networking (SDN), we propose a novel framework for M2M communications in software- defined cellular networks with wireless network virtualization. In the proposed framework, according to different functions...
The exponential growth in data traffic and dramatic capacity demand in fifth generation (5G) has inspired the move from traditional single-tier cellular networks towards heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets). To face the coming trend in 5G, the high availability requirement in new applications, needs to be satisfied to achieve low latency service. In this work, we present a tractable multi-tier...
