The emerging software defined networking (SDN) paradigm separates the data plane from
the control plane and centralizes network control in an SDN controller. Applications interact …

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) have grown substantially and instigated numerous
deployments during the previous decade thanks to their simple implementation, easy …

With the advent of multiple radio interfaces on a single device, wireless mesh networks start
to achieve significant improvement in network capacity, latency, and fault tolerance. The …

This paper considers the deployment of intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) technology for
wireless multi-hop backhauling of multiple basestations (BSs) connected in a mesh …

The increasing demand for wireless services has led to a severe energy consumption
problem with the rising of greenhouse gas emission. While the renewable energy can …

The book series Microwave and RF Design is a comprehensive treatment of radio frequency
(RF) and microwave design with a modern “systems-first” approach. A strong emphasis on …

Effective routing design can significantly improve the whole network performance. In order to
achieve the global best network performance, the problem of routing can be formulated as a …
