The characteristic feature of 5G and beyond networks is the diversity of services, which is
required to support different user needs. However, the requirements for these services are …

The network-assisted full-duplex (NAFD) system realizes flexible duplex in the spatial
domain within the same time-frequency resource. With the explosive growth of the number of …

Network-assisted full-duplex (NAFD) cell-free (CF) networks use half-duplex access points
(APs) to enable the network-level in-band full-duplex. By dynamically allocating each AP to …

Joint processing coordinated multipoint transmission (JP-CoMP) has gained high attention
as part of the effort to cope with the increasing levels of demand in the next-generation …

The deployment of heterogeneous networks (HetNets) is one of the promising approaches
to meet the 5G requirements. The traditional user association approach is inefficient for …

Over time, load balancing systems in cellular networks have been key to avoiding overload
problems in the network and to maintaining a correct resource allocation and performance …

Healthcare IoT (H-IoT) has been rigorously extending its applications to hospitals to deliver
important medical data remotely and continuously with various types of smart medical …

Ultra-dense networks (UDNs) have become an important architecture for the fifth generation
(5G) networks. A large number of small base stations (SBSs) are deployed to provide high …

In today's wireless communication systems, the exponentially growing needs of mobile
users require the combination of new and existing techniques to meet the demands for …

The deployment of small cells in cellular networks increases their overall capacity, however,
the proximity of small cells to one another also causes significant interference. To reduce …
