Remarkable research activities and major advances have been occurred over the past
decade in multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems. Several …

User association is necessary in dense millimeter wave (mmWave) networks to determine
which base station a user connects to in order to balance base station loads and maximize a …

This paper investigates joint user association (UA) and user scheduling (US) for load
balancing over the downlink of a wireless heterogeneous network by formulating a network …

User scheduling (US) is the process of dynamic selection of the set of active users out of all
available users to serve in each time slot. This is done to optimize the system performance …

High data rates, high spectral efficiency, flexibility, and low delays over the air interface will
be important features in next-generation wireless systems. The overall challenge will be …

In this paper, we study several ways in which mobile terminals can backoff on their uplink
transmit power in order to extend battery lifetimes. This is particularly effective when a …

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) assisted semi-grant-free (SGF) transmission has
recently received significant research attention due to its outstanding ability of serving grant …

We introduce a comprehensive modeling framework for the problem of scheduling a finite
number of finite-length jobs where the available service rate is time-varying. The main …

Recent work on channel modeling and prediction has shown the feasibility of predicting the
mobile radio channel, quite accurately, several milliseconds ahead in time for realistic …

This letter investigates and analyzes multiuser scheduling for ambient backscatter (AmBack)
communication systems by taking the fairness issue into account. In contrast to traditional …
