Open radio access network (ORAN) Alliance offers a disaggregated RAN functionality built using open interface specifications between blocks. To efficiently support various competing services, namely enhanced mobile broadband ...

In this paper, we study joint communication and computation offloading (JCCO) for hierarchical edge-cloud systems with ultra-reliable and low latency communications (URLLC). We aim to minimize the end-to-end (e2e) latency ...

With the emergence of ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC) services, link adaptation (LA) plays a pivotal role in improving the robustness and reliability of communication networks via appropriate modulation ...

The convergence of mobile edge computing (MEC) and blockchain is transforming the current computing services in wireless Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks, enabling task offloading with security enhancement based on ...

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have emerged as a game-changing technology to improve wireless network performance by intelligently manipulating and customizing the physical propagation environment. Such capability ...

To enable an intelligent, programmable and multi-vendor radio access network (RAN) for 6G networks, considerable efforts have been made in standardization and development of open RAN (O-RAN). So far, however, the applicability ...

Satellite edge computing (SEC) has emerged as a promising technology to deliver network services to remote users. Coupled with software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV), SEC can provide ...

We consider unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled wireless systems where downlink communications between a multi-antenna UAV and multiple users are assisted by a hybrid active-passive reconfigurable intelligent surface ...

With the emergence of ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC) services, link adaptation (LA) plays a pivotal role in improving the robustness and reliability of communication networks via appropriate modulation ...

Communication system design has been traditionally guided by task-agnostic principles, which aim at efficiently transmitting as many correct bits as possible through a given channel. However, in the era of cyber-physical ...
