Among the LTE-A communication techniques, Device-to-Device (D2D) communication
which is defined to directly route data traffic between spatially closely located mobile user …

The capacity scaling law of wireless networks has been considered as one of the most
fundamental issues. In this survey, we aim at providing a comprehensive overview of the …

Data collection is a common operation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), of which the
performance can be measured by its achievable network capacity. Most existing works …

In this paper, we consider a cognitive radio system, consisting of a primary user (PU), a
secondary user (SU) transmitter, and a SU receiver. The SUs are equipped with directional …

A major obstacle stunting the application of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is the lack of
a general throughput analysis theory for such networks. The available works in this area …

In a hybrid wireless network that combines a mobile ad-hoc network and an infrastructure
network, efficient and reliable data routing is important for high throughput. Existing routing …

A substantial body of the literature exists addressing the capacity of wireless networks.
However, it is commonly assumed that all nodes in the network are identical. The issue of …

In this paper, we investigate the theoretical per-node transmission limit of hybrid wireless
networks over fading channels. We formulate a hybrid wireless network model, in which a …

Network capacity investigation has been intensive in the past few years. A large body of
work on wireless network capacity has appeared in the literature. However, so far most of …

In underlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs), the connectivity of secondary users (SUs) is
difficult to be guaranteed due to the existence of primary users. Most prior studies only …
