Abstract Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) network aims to provide a very high data rate with
minimum latency to an ultra-dense user environment. To achieve this demand, the possible …

For the past years, the analysts have been predicting a tremendous and continuous
increase in mobile traffic, causing much of industry and academia to seek out any and all …

Device-to-device (D2D) communications over the licensed wireless spectrum has been
recently proposed as a promising technology to meet the capacity crunch of next generation …

Mobile communication has evolved through various generations and is currently on the
verge of its fifth generation (5G). The continually increasing number of subscribers and data …

In this paper we jointly address two fundamental issues in device-to-device (D2D) overlaid
cellular networks: 1) how to partition the spectrum assuming orthogonal cellular and D2D …

In 5G cellular networks, device‐to‐device (D2D) communications help greatly improve
spectral efficiency and reduce communication latency. However, interference is intrinsic to …

While operators have finally started to deploy fourth generation broadband technology,
many believe it will still be insufficient to meet the anticipated demand in mobile traffic over …

We study device-to-device (D2D) enabled hierarchical cellular networks consisting of a
macro base station (BS), a dense network of access nodes (ANs) and mobile users, where …

One of the most significant fifth-generation (5G) technology enablers will be device-to-device
(D2D) communication, which refers to the capability of direct communication between two or …

The proliferation of novel network access devices and demand for high quality of service by
the end users are proving to be insufficient and are straining the existing wireless cellular …
