A constant need to increase the network capacity for meeting the growing demands of the
subscribers has led to the evolution of cellular communication networks from the first …

For wireless devices; information sharing from one device to another represents the most
significant task for typically discovering the right devices and connecting them is extremely …

Since the start of 5G work in 3GPP in early 2016, tremendous progress has been made in
both standardization and commercial deployments. 3GPP is now entering the second phase …

Given the escalating population across the globe, it has become paramount to construct
smart cities, aiming for improving the management of urban flows relying on efficient …

To offload and alleviate the heavy base station (BS) traffic load caused by the rapidly
growing video services, device-to-device (D2D) communication, as one of the most …

Abstract Device to Device and Cooperative communication are the two new emerging
technologies in the new era of communication technology which differ from the existing …

In this letter, we investigate cooperative device-to-device (D2D) communication in an uplink
cellular network, where D2D users act as relays for cellular users. We derive the outage …

Due to the heterogeneous and resource-constrained characters of Internet of Things (IoT),
how to guarantee ubiquitous network connectivity is challenging. Although LTE cellular …

This paper proposes to deploy multiple reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) in device-
to-device (D2D)-underlaid cellular systems. The uplink sum-rate of the system is maximized …

To meet the explosive demand on delivering high-definition video steams over cellular
networks, we design a Social-aware video multiCast (SoCast) system leveraging device-to …
