The mobile data traffic has risen exponentially in recent days due to the emergence of data
intensive applications, such as online gaming and video sharing. It is driving the …

The future generation networks (5G) are expected to achieve high data rates, reduced
latency, increased spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of the system. Since the …

With the tremendous demand for connectivity anywhere and anytime, existing network
architectures should be modified. To cope with the challenges that arise due to the …

Abstract Device to Device and Cooperative communication are the two new emerging
technologies in the new era of communication technology which differ from the existing …

Globalization and industrialization of agriculture although benefitted with adequate food
supplies, its negative side effects have also been realized particularly with respect to loss of …

Performance of wireless networks for Internet of Things (IoT) is suffering from exponential
growth of lightweight hand-held and smart IoT devices as well as the data flow in the …

To tackle the challenge of providing higher data rates within limited spectral resources we
consider the case of multiple operators sharing a common pool of radio resources. Four …

The business potential of device-to-device (D2D) communication including public safety and
vehicular communications will be realized only if direct communication between devices …

Recent studies foresee that there would be roughly 50 billion of machine type
communication (MTC) devices by 2020. Coping with the massive signaling overhead …

In this paper, we consider a heterogeneous network consisting of both macro Base Station
(MBS) and pico Base Stations (PBSs) in order to provide a spectrum allocation and mode …
