Offloading is an effective method for extending the lifetime of handheld mobile devices by
executing some components of applications remotely (eg, on the server in a data center or in …

Emergence of new types of services has led to various traffic and diverse delay
requirements in fifth-generation (5G) wireless networks. Meeting diverse delay requirements …

In this paper, a random access scheme is introduced, which relies on the combination of
packet erasure correcting codes and successive interference cancellation (SIC). The …

Information theory has not yet had a direct impact on networking, although there are
similarities in concepts and methodologies that have consistently attracted the attention of …

The effect of multipacket reception (MPR) on stability and delay of slotted ALOHA based
random-access systems is considered. A general asymmetric MPR model is introduced and …

In this paper, a novel cognitive multiple-access strategy in the presence of a cooperating
relay is proposed. Exploiting an important phenomenon in wireless networks, source …

We revisit the stability problem of systems consisting of N buffered terminals accessing a
common receiver over the collision channel by means of the standard ALOHA protocol. We …

We investigate the stable packet arrival rate region of a discrete-time slotted random access
network, where the sources are distributed as a Poisson point process. Each of the sources …

Currently, most Landsat satellites are deployed in the low earth orbit (LEO) to obtain high-
resolution data of the Earth surface and atmosphere. However, the return channels of LEO …

We study the use of channel state information (CSI) for random access in fading channels.
Traditionally, random access protocols have been designed by assuming simple models for …
