On some extensions of Fast-Lipschitz optimization

The need of fast distributed solvers for optimization problems in networked systems has motivated the recent development of the Fast-Lipschitz optimization framework. In such an optimization, problems satisfying certain qualifying conditions, such as …

Poster: On the Immortality of Wireless Sensor Networks by Wireless Energy Transfer - A Node Deployment Perspective

The lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be substantially extended by transferring energy wirelessly to the sensor nodes. In this poster, a wireless energy transfer (WET) enabled WSN is presented, where a base station transfers energy …

A simplified interference model for outdoor millimeter wave networks

Industry 4.0 is the emerging trend of the industrial automation. Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication is a prominent technology for wireless networks to support the Industry 4.0 implementation. The availability of tractable accurate interference …

Auction-based dynamic distributed association in millimeter wave networks

Special characteristics of millimeter wave (mmWave) systems such as high vulnerability to random obstacles (due to high penetration loss) and mobility (due to directional communications) demand redesigning the existing algorithms or the association …

The Impact of beamforming and coordination on spectrum pooling in mmWave Cellular networks

Spectrum pooling is not typically used in current cellular networks, because it only provides a slight performance improvement while requiring heavy coordination among different cellular operators. However, these problems can be potentially overcome …

Enabling IEC 61850 communication services over public LTE infrastructure
