Blind-spots, where wireless signals do not reach within the coverage range, often emerge in
a dynamic environment due to obstacles, geographical location or mobility of cellular users …

This paper proposes a Mobility and Activeness aware Relay Selection (MARS) algorithm for
multi-hop D2D communication underlaying cellular networks. MARS takes into account the …

This paper proposes an adaptive relay selection method that exploits the social network and
establishes a physical domain and social domain-based model named the Social-based …

The current 5G and conceived 6G era with ultra-high density, ultra-high frequency
bandwidth, and ultra-low latency can support emerging applications like Extended Reality …

Cellular D2D networks consist of numerous D2D user equipments (UEs) carried by human
beings with multiple social attributes, which accordingly connotes an overlapping community …

By allowing each UE or network service provider to access the information of social
networks, socially aware D2D communication has been introduced recently as a new …

Device-centric architecture is an aspect of fifth generation communication whereby
devices/user equipment is able to directly communicate with other devices with minimal …

This letter investigates a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based spectrum access
scheme for device-to-device (D2D) communication underlay cellular networks. Specifically …

Device-to-device (D2D) communications allows user equipment (UE) that are in close
proximity to communicate with each other directly without using a base station. Relay …

Device-to-device (D2D) communication is regarded as a promising technology to support
spectral-efficient Internet of Things (IoT) in beyond fifth-generation (5G) and sixth-generation …
