In an interference-limited 5G narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) heterogeneous
networks (HetNets), device-to-device (D2D) relaying technology can provide coverage …

This paper presents a quick block transport system for scalable Hyperledger Fabric (HLF)
blockchain over device-to-device (D2D)-assisted 5G networks. The objective of the …

In this article, a joint power control and pairing-based resource allocation problem in the
vehicle-to-everything (V2X) network are studied. This V2X network consists of a vehicle-to …

The device-to-device (D2D) relay technology is one of the key technologies in 5G networks,
and its coverage problem is important as it determines key properties in network …

Recently, device-to-device (D2D)-underlaid fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks have
received plenty of attention because of their ability to save network resources and to reduce …

Providing wireless coverage to users using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) encounters
two major challenges: deployment and channel allocation. To this end, solutions to both …

Device‐to‐device (D2D) communications help in improving the performance of wireless
services in cellular networks via enabling cooperation among mobile users. Further …

In this paper, we build a D2D-relay communications model where the D2D user is selected
as a relay to forward data for the users at the edge of the networks. We aim at maximizing …

To further enhance the performance of traditional wireless multicasting, in this paper a novel
multicast system is proposed based on non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and device …

Nowadays, to realize device sustainability and prolong device working time, energy harvest
(EH) has been introduced into D2D communication networks that allow each D2D …
