Long term evolution (LTE) wireless local area networks (WLAN) aggregation (LWA) has
recently emerged as a promising technology for mobile data offloading. In this paper, non …

This paper investigates the trade-off between throughput and energy consumption in
heterogeneous networks with dual connectivity and backhaul delay. The problem of traffic …

We investigate the effect of bursty traffic in a long term evolution (LTE) and Wi-Fi aggregation
(LWA)-enabled network. The LTE base station routes packets of the same IP flow through …

Multi-connectivity is considered as a 5G key technique to improve both the user performance
and the overall resource utilization. In this paper, we examine a resource allocation problem …

With the objective of reducing energy cost, we study the stochastic optimization of traffic off-
loading via dual-connectivity by joint cell activation and user association. Particularly …

Unlicensed spectrum is very appealing for LTE operators to expand their capacity cost-
effectively. Hence, they have recently been exploring various capacity-expansion …

In the fifth and beyond (5G/B5G) communication, wireless networks are evolved towards
offering various services of different use cases and, therefore, need to span a wide range of …

5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology (5G) utilizes the Access Traffic Steering,
Switching, and Splitting (ATSSS) rule to enable multi-path data transmission, which is …

In heterogeneous wireless networks, service providers typically employ multiple radio
access technologies to satisfy the requirements of quality of service (QoS) and improve the …

Traffic splitting across different radio access technologies in Multi-RAT heterogeneous
networks plays a crucial feature in the recently introduced 3GPP-Release-13 cellular …
