Long term evolution (LTE) carrier aggregation with 5 GHz unlicensed national informational
infrastructure band has been pointed out by the industry as a good solution to handle the …

Testbeds are essential for experimental evaluation as well as for product development. In
the context of LTE networks, existing testbed platforms are limited either in functionality …

Increasing capacity demands in emerging wireless technologies are expected to be met by
network densification and spectrum bands open to multiple technologies. These will, in turn …

Device-to-device (D2D) communication, which enables direct communication between
nearby mobile devices, is an attractive add-on component to improve spectrum efficiency …

Ensuring fair co-existence between unlicensed LTE and WiFi networks is currently of major
concern to both cellular operators and WiFi providers. Two main unlicensed LTE …

We study the fair coexistence of scheduled and random access transmitters sharing the
same frequency channel. Interest in coexistence is topical due to the need for emerging …

To alleviate the problem of scarce spectrum resources and meet the ever-increasing of
mobile broadband data traffic demands, Licensed Assisted Access (LAA)-Long Term …

To overcome the lack of spectrum resources, the proposal of extending LTE (Long Term
Evolution) to the readily available unlicensed spectrum is receiving much attention …

This paper provides a comprehensive survey on the coexistence of cellular and IEEE 802.11
standards from a holistic viewpoint that takes into account the coexistence of all existing and …

Using LTE in unlicensed bands will allow operators to access additional spectrum to meet
the increasing demand for mobile services. In this article, we provide an overview of the …
