In this paper, we examine the impact of uplink spectrum allocation on the backhaul energy
allocation in a decentralized setting. We consider that two small base stations (SBSs) use …

This paper considers the problem of renewable energy allocation for a cellular backhaul
network where each backhaul node can request renewable energy from a microgrid to …

We aim at maximizing the sum rate of secondary users (SUs) in OFDM-based
Heterogeneous Cognitive Radio (CR) Networks using RF energy harvesting. Assuming SUs …

Rapidly rising energy costs and increasingly rigid environmental standards have led to an
emerging trend of addressing the “energy efficiency” aspect of wireless cellular networks. In …

Reducing the power consumption of base stations is crucial to enhancing the energy
efficiency of cellular networks. As the number of mobile users increases exponentially …

Both cognitive radio and femtocell have been considered as promising techniques in
wireless networks. However, most of previous works are focused on spectrum sharing and …

The explosive growth of heterogeneous mobile data traffic with stringent Quality of Service
(QoS) requirements put significant pressure on the existing network infrastructure and also …

Both cognitive radio and femtocell have been considered as promising techniques in
wireless networks. However, most of previous works are focused on spectrum sharing and …

Wireless telecommunications is experiencing a massive penetration of wireless devices and
an exponential growth in wireless applications. To accommodate the expected service …

Device coordination in open spectrum systems is a challenging problem, particularly since
users experience varying spectrum availability over time and in different locations. In this …
