The pervasiveness of wireless technology has indeed created massive opportunity to
integrate almost everything into the Internet fabric. This can be seen with the advent of …

For conventional wireless networks, the main target of resource allocation (RA) is to
efficiently utilize the available resources. Generally, there are no changes in the available …

Mobile-edge computation offloading (MECO) off-loads intensive mobile computation to
clouds located at the edges of cellular networks. Thereby, MECO is envisioned as a …

This paper investigates a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based MAC protocol for
heterogeneous wireless networking, referred to as a Deep-reinforcement Learning Multiple …

Spectrum efficiency is one of the key performance metrics in 5G communication networks.
To enhance spectrum efficiency, advanced spectrum sharing techniques are normally used …

In cellular networks, proximity users may communicate directly without going through the
base station, which is called Device-to-device (D2D) communications and it can improve …

In cognitive radio (CR) systems, the spectrum efficiency (SE) of the secondary users (SUs) is
always limited by the interference temperature constraint imposed on the primary users …

Cognitive radio (CR) has emerged as a promising technology to exploit the unused portions
of spectrum in an opportunistic manner. The fixed spectrum allocation of governmental …

The spectrum efficiency (SE) and security of the secondary users (SUs) in the cognitive radio
networks (CRNs) have become two main issues due to the limitation interference to the …

This paper provides an overview of cognitive radio (CR) networks, with focus on the recent
advances in resource allocation techniques and the CR networks architectural design. The …
