We consider a minimum span channel allocation problem (MS-CAP) to overcome spectrum
scarcity and facilitate the efficiency of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled wireless …

We noted that communication performance of a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connection is
heavily affected by the radio interference from other connections or networks. Reliability is …

In this paper, we consider the simultaneous connectivity of primary and secondary networks
forming a cognitive model. It is assumed that the cognitive model includes guard zones that …

Small cells deliver cost-effective capacity and coverage enhancement in a cellular network.
In this work, we present the interplay of two technologies, namely Wi-Fi offloading and small …

We propose novel centralized minimum span frequency assignment (MS-FA) techniques
allowing partially overlapped channels (POCs) to improve cost and spectral efficiency for …

A working communication network is a key element in saving human lives after a disaster
event. However, analysis of past disaster events shows significant damage to common …

The Wireless mesh network (WMN) is a popular network architecture used to support
disaster recovery operations. However, few research works have addressed the capacity …

We consider a wireless network of static nodes where each transmitter-receiver pair
employs slotted Aloha, electing to transmit with a common contention probability p, and we …

Interference is the main performance-limiting factor in most wireless networks. Protocol
interference model is extensively used in the design of wireless networks. However, the …

This article focuses on the modeling of aggregated interference in cognitive radio-based
Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN). We develop two distribution models to represent …
