Multicell cooperation in 5G next-generation wireless networks is essential to increasing
multiuser channel capacity. Multiple base stations need to coherently process their …

Next generation wireless networks face the challenge of increasing energy consumption
while satisfying the unprecedented increase in the data rate demand. To address this …

In this paper, we investigate the energy efficiency of downlink transmissions in
heterogeneous networks. Our objective is to satisfy the rate requirement of users while …

As current cellular networks are becoming increasingly heterogeneous, traditional cell
association rule based on the downlink reference signal receiving power (RSRP) no longer …

A heterogeneous network (HetNet) based on the long-term evolution advanced standard
has been developed to improve the system performance; in this HetNet, macrocells and low …

In this paper, we perform a system-level feasibility analysis of full-duplex (FD) relay-aided
cellular networks that are equipped with multiple antennas at the base stations (BSs) and …

Providing high date rates that are independent of user location in the network is one of the
Fifth Generation (5G) wireless network goals. This goal becomes even more challenging …

With the rapid development of wireless networking technologies, the Internet of Things and
heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) tend to be integrated to form a promising wireless …

In this paper, we address the uplink resource scheduling problem in single carrier frequency-
domain multiple access systems. In particular, we focus on the efficiency and fairness trade …

The growth of mobile devices and their traffic volume make it necessary for mobile network
operators to provide higher capacity. As traditional macrocell-based cellular networks could …
