Directional Antennas (DAs) provide higher gain, and reduce interference by directing beams toward the desired receiver. In this paper, we propose a new joint optimization framework considering the energy consumption and throughput in DAs Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). We formulate the joint optimization problem as a Mixed Integer Linear Problem (MILP) using a weighted objective function of both the...
We investigate the global throughput maximization of distributed spectrum reusing (DSR) in cognitive radio (CR) network, which reaches the two-dimensional spectrum multiplexing. Most previous works only consider the temporal-domain accessing, which greatly underutilize the spectrum resources. In this paper, we propose a new temporal-spatial spectrum reusing scheme by fully exploiting the location...
Wireless backhauling is a promising technology for Ultra-Dense Networks (UDN). Resource management for access and backhaul is a key issue. Different from conventional resource allocation approaches, we partition radio resources for access and backhaul, taking into account the impacts of cooperative transmission modes. This problem is formulated to maximize the area throughput of UDN to obtain the...
Due to the difficulty of coordination in multi-cell random access, it is a practical challenge how to achieve the optimal throughput with decentralized transmission. In this paper, we propose a decentralized multi-cell aware opportunistic random access (MA-ORA) protocol that almost achieves the optimal throughput scaling in a multi-cell random access network with one access point (AP) and multiple...
Interference management through power control in wireless ad hoc networks has both the hidden terminal problem which induces collisions, and the exposed terminal problem which prohibits concurrent transmissions. Both problems are caused by the varied interference range induced by the adjusted transmission power. Through observing that the nodes adopt the power control mechanism induces collisions...
This paper investigates the performance of cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems, where one near user works as a decode-and-forward (DF) full-duplex (FD) or half-duplex (HD) relaying to help far user. Two cooperative relay scenarios are considered insightfully. 1) The first scenario is that no direct link exists between the base station (BS) and the far user; and 2) The second...
Deployment of low power base-stations (referred to as HetNet) within cellular systems can improve system capacity, coverage and enhance users experience. However, the inter-tier and intra-tier interference in such systems can significantly impact overall system performance, which makes interference and spectral resource management more complex. To build, operate HetNet networks, mobile operators have...
The S-ALOHA (i.e. slotted-ALOHA) protocol is recently regaining interest in Lower Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) handling M2M traffic. Despite intensive studies since the birth of S-ALOHA, the special features of M2M traffic and requirements highlight the importance of analytical models taking into account performance-affecting factors and giving a thorough performance evaluation. Fulfilling this...
In this paper, we consider the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer assisted cooperative nonorthogonal multiple access (SWIPT-CNOMA) system, in which the near NOMA users with strong channel conditions serve as energy harvesting (EH) relays to help the far NOMA users with poor channel conditions. For the considered system, a new power splitting (PS) protocol for EH relay is proposed...
In this paper, a multi-scale approach to spectrum sensing in cognitive cellular networks is proposed. In order to overcome the huge cost incurred in the acquisition of full network state information, a hierarchical scheme is proposed, based on which local state estimates are aggregated up the hierarchy to obtain aggregate state information at multiple scales, which are then sent back to each cell...
Devlce-to-devlce (D2D) communications are capable of enhancing the total cell throughput, reducing power consumption and increasing the instantaneous data rate. In this paper we propose a distributed power allocation scheme for D2D communications overlaying an OFDMA network, so that D2D communications take place on dedicated resources but are supervised by the BS. The proposed scheme addresses the...
Small cells are being deployed at increasing rates to meet the multimedia communication demand in mobile network, but inter cell interference is a challenge in the heterogeneous network. In this study, we proposed a novel method to solve the small cell placement and the interference management problem. In order to achieve a tradeoff between the quality of service of cell edges user and the whole system...
Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) are constituted by different types of base stations (eNBs), the objective of Beyond LTE does dispose more Pico eNBs to meet the traffic demand of user equipment (UE). The LTE Time Division Duplexing (TDD) system had been defined 7 uplink-downlink sub-frame configurations. For instance, two neighboring eNBs of TDD system using different uplink-downlink configuration,...
High throughput satellites have proven to be an excellent solution to provide Internet services to white spots or to complement other existing infrastructures. With the use of multi-beam antennas, the same frequency may be reused dozens of times across a single satellite coverage area, increasing the system capacity and profitability. Legacy frequency reuse patterns such as uncoordinated 4-color scheme...
Device-to-device (D2D) communication is a promising technique to enhance spectrum efficiency of the cellular systems by enabling direct transmissions between end users close to each other. However, the arising interference issue should be carefully addressed to obtain the potential spectrum efficiency gains. In this paper, we develop an approximate interior point method to maximize the sum throughput...
Cache-partitioned architectures allow subsections of the shared last-level cache (LLC) to be exclusively reserved for some applications. This technique dramatically limits interactions between applications that are concurrently executing on a multicore machine. Consider n applications that execute concurrently, with the objective to minimize the makespan, defined as the maximum completion time of...
In wireless networks, interferences between transmissions are modelled either in time or frequency domain. In this article, we jointly analyze interferences in the time-frequency domain using a stochastic geometry model assuming the total time-frequency resources to be a two-dimensional plane and transmissions from Internet of Things (IoT) devices time-frequency patterns on this plane. To evaluate...
Random access protocols relying on the transmission of packet replicas in multiple slots and exploiting interference cancellation at the receiver have been shown to achieve performance competitive with that of orthogonal schemes. So far the optimization of the repetition degree profile, defining the probability for a user to transmit a given number of replicas, has mainly been performed targeting...
Millimeter wave (mmWave) communication has been a promising technology of future fifth generation (5G) cellular networks. Due to the tremendous propagation loss of mmWave communication, device-to-device (D2D) communications are widely used over directional mmWave networks to improve the network throughput. In this paper, a new time resource sharing scheme is proposed based on Stackelberg game for...
The increasing demand for data usage drives the efforts for higher throughput in telecom and data networks. Having higher throughput helps users to save time. Evidences from existing operators also demonstrate that when subscribers experience higher throughput, their data usage increases which provides a recurring revenue boost. Operators not only enhance user experience and revenue, they also make...
