Predictive Algorithm for Handover Decisions between LTE and LTE-A Networks Open
A heterogeneous wireless network needs to maintain seamless mobility and service continuity; for this reason, we have proposed an approach based on the combination of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference …
Two-Stage Adaptive Relay Selection and Power Allocation Strategy for Cooperative CR-NOMA Networks in Underlay Spectrum Sharing Open
In this paper, we consider a novel cooperative underlay cognitive radio network based on non-orthogonal multiple access (CR-NOMA) with adaptive relay selection and power allocation. In secondary networks, dedicated relay assistance and use…
Competition Between Service Providers With Strategic Resource Allocation: Application to Network Slicing Open
[EN] We propose and analyze a business model for a set of operators that use the same physical network. Each operator is entitled to a share of a network operated by an Infrastructure Provider (InP) and uses network slicing mechanisms to r…
Modeling of Duty-Cycled MAC Protocols for Heterogeneous WSN with Priorities Open
