Device-to-device (D2D) communication is one of the most promising solutions to the dramatic increase of wireless networks traffic load. In D2D communications, mobile nodes can communicate in a semi-autonomous way, with minimal or no control by the base station (BS). In this context, we address the problem of the coexistence of cellular and D2D tiers in the uplink frequencies, where a D2D source is...
Efficient transmission power control is indispensable for cellular networks. It not only provides a high energy efficiency, but also maintains reliable connections. With the emergence of 5G mobile technology, the presence of device-to-device (D2D) communications within the cellular network has stimulated research on radio resource sharing. In this paper, we consider an underlay D2D network operating...
Sharing the spectrum among multiple operators seems promising in millimeter wave (mmWave) systems. One explanation is the highly directional transmission in mmWave, which reduces the interference caused by one network on the other networks sharing the same resources. In this paper, we model a mmWave cellular system where an operator that primarily owns an exclusive-use license of a certain band can...
Full duplex MIMO communication is one of the key techniques for 5G wireless communication. The main challenge in full duplex operation is the cancellation of the self-interference (SI). In this paper, Transmit Antenna Cancellation technique is considered with symmetric placement of antennas to cancel SI in full duplex MIMO systems. The performance of a full duplex system with this cancellation technique...
The asymptotic sum rate performance of multi-cell/multi-user cognitive massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with underlay spectrum sharing is investigated. Specifically, each cell consists of a licensed (primary) multi-user massive MIMO system and a cognitive (secondary) multi-user MIMO system which is allowed to utilize the licensed frequency spectrum provided that the intra-cell...
This paper investigates secrecy and connection performance for uplink transmission in a two-tier heterogeneous network with non-uniformly deployed low- power small base stations (BSs). All BSs and the eavesdropper are equipped with multiple antennas. We propose an aggregate interference approximation approach to characterize the statistics of interference generated by users associated with small BSs...
Caching at base stations (BSs) is a promising way to offload traffic and eliminate backhaul bottleneck in heterogeneous networks (HetNets). In this paper, we investigate the optimal content placement maximizing the successful offloading probability in a cache- enabled HetNet where a tier of multi-antenna macro BSs (MBSs) is overlaid with a tier of helpers with caches. Based on probabilistic caching...
In this paper, the application of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) into $K$-tier heterogeneous networks (HetNets) is investigated. A new promising transmission framework is proposed, in which massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is employed in macro cells and NOMA is adopted in small cells. For maximizing the biased average received power at mobile users, a massive MIMO and NOMA based...
The rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) has brought big challenges to the traditional cellular networks such as super dense devices and deep fading channels. These new challenges will lead to a significant transmission efficiency degradation and increase the device's power consumption, especially in the uplink. A huge pressure will be also imposed to the enhanced Node B's (eNB) scheduler...
In this paper, we investigate the physical layer security for heterogeneous networks (HetNets), where the confidential message transmitted to each legitimate user can be eavesdropped by multiple eavesdroppers. To enhance the secrecy performance, we introduce friendly jammers and full duplex users in our model. We propose a jammer selection scheme based on average user received jamming power. The jammers...
In this paper, we propose a novel anti- eavesdropping scheme by introducing friendly jammers to a wireless network of things (WNoT). In particular, we establish a theoretical framework to evaluate the eavesdropping risk of WNoT with friendly jammers and the eavesdropping risk of WNoT without jammers. Our theoretical model takes into account various channel conditions such as the path loss and Rayleigh...
We propose a novel model for the NLOS interference power distribution in a cellular system employing MIMO beamforming transmission in mmWave spectrum. The proposed model is a mixture of the Inverse Gaussian and the Inverse Weibull distributions, both are two-parameter medium-to-heavy tail distributions. To estimate the parameters of the mixture model, we design an expectation maximization algorithm...
This article investigates the mobility management of an ultra dense cellular network (UDN) from an energy-efficiency (EE) point of view. Many dormant base stations (BSs) in a UDN do not transmit signals, and thus a received power based handover (HO) approach as in traditional cellular networks is hardly applicable. In addition, the limited front/backhaul capacity compared to a huge number of BSs makes...
In this paper, we study the impact of the base station (BS) idle mode capability (IMC) on the network performance in dense small cell networks (SCNs). Different from existing works, we consider a sophisticated path loss model incorporating both line-of-sight (LoS) and non- line-of-sight (NLoS) transmissions. Analytical results are obtained for the coverage probability and the area spectral efficiency...
This paper studies a transmission scheme for in-band full-duplex communication system, which is established on the base of complementary codes. Having ideal correlation properties, complementary codes are capable of providing effective mitigation of self-interference (SI) introduced by co-frequency co-time full-duplex (CCFD) communications, an efficient multiple access for multiple users as well as...
Under the conditions where performance in a massive MIMO network is limited by pilot contamination, the uplink signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) exhibits different distributions when using different pilot allocation schemes. By utilising different sets of orthogonal pilot sequences, as opposed to reused sequences amongst adjacent cells, the resulting SIR distribution is more favourable with respect...
This article investigates the performance of an ultra-dense network (UDN) from an energy-efficiency (EE) standpoint leveraging the interplay between stochastic geometry (SG) and mean-field game (MFG) theory. In this setting, base stations (BSs) (resp. users) are uniformly distributed over a two-dimensional plane as two independent homogeneous Poisson point processes (PPPs), where users associate to...
In this paper, we investigate the outage performance of multihop full duplex decode and forward relay system, in which information gets forwarded from a source node to a destination node with the help of multiple relays in cascade. We derive an exact analytical expression for the end-to-end outage probability considering the effects of co-channel interference caused by inter-relay links and the echo...
In this paper, we study the connectivity probability of linear multi-hop ad hoc networks operating in an interference-limited environment. The nodes in the network are assumed to form a Poisson point process (PPP), and they generate mutual interference during communications. A node communicates to other nodes in the network by using its intermediate neighbors as relays. The average node density plays...
The maximal ratio combining (MRC) receiver has excellent performance in the uplink of massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems under favorable propagation, but the performance degrades very much in a harsh channel because of interference. Theoretical analysis showing this phenomenon is given for a particular class of fading channel. A novel receiver, exploiting preemphasis/deemphasis...
