Non-terrestrial networks (NTN) provide a revolutionary solution to bridge the digital divide in areas underserved by terrestrial network (TN). Particularly, low Earth orbit (LEO) …
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-empowered communications have gained significant attention in recent years due to the promise of agile coverage provision for a large number of …
We present a new framework based on quantization theory to design cellular networks optimized for both legacy ground users and uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) corridors …
The growing demand for broader bandwidth in cellular networks has turned the upper mid- band (7–24 GHz) into a focal point for expansion. However, the integration of terrestrial …
The International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT)-2030 framework recently adopted by the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) envisions …
In this article, we introduce a new mathematical framework for the analysis and design of UAV corridors in cellular networks, while considering a realistic network deployment …
As traditional cellular base stations (BSs) are opti-mized for 2D ground service, providing 3D connectivity to un-crewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) requires re-engineering of the existing …
Exploiting unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for delivery services is expected to reduce delivery time and human resource costs. However, the proximity of these UAVs to the …
Non-terrestrial networks (NTN) have emerged as a transformative solution to bridge the digital divide and deliver essential services to remote and underserved areas. In this context …
