The Internet of Things (IoT) makes the home smarter by real-time sensing of the situation and transmission of data to the cloud. As IoT devices continue to expand rapidly, a critical need arises for effective device-type identification methods. ...

The fifth generation (5G) of mobile networks may offer a custom logical and virtualized network called network slicing. This virtualization opens a new opportunity to share infrastructure resources and encourage cooperation between several ...

• Motivation: SB needs to minimize cost & fulfill service requirements.
• Contribution: Problem formulation of NS & config assignment to minimize the SB cost.
• Method: IBM CPLEX used for deriving optimal solutions.
• Finding 1: ...

Securing end-to-end communication in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANET) is crucial due to zero trust between the communicating entities. Additionally, the underlying communication needs to be lightweight in many cases, especially when vehicles are ...

• Mutual authentication and key agreement in Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication.
• Secure message exchange in Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication.
• Re-authentication of pre-authenticated vehicle user without support of ...

Today, the applications of AI/ML techniques are so pervasive and numerous that they cannot be easily listed. However, some of the most successful and well-known applications include search engines, targeted advertisements, recommendation systems, ...

The combination of full-duplex communication (FDC) and millimeter wave integrated access and backhaul (mmWave IAB) is a highly implementable technique in beyond 5G era. However, the technical challenges such as sub-channel allocation and ...

Cellular networks are facing serious economic and ecological challenges due to the exponential increase in mobile traffic. As a promising direction, mobile operators are equipping base stations with renewable energy and battery systems along with ...

5G NR enables three types of use case scenarios viz. enhance mobile broadband (eMBB), ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC), and massive machine type communication (mMTC). The eMBB is suitable for applications that demand higher ...

Real-time performance is one of the most vital metrics in Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) based Industrial Internet of Things (IIoTs) applications. Since the relative geographic relationship between data sink and wireless sensors affects ...

At present, most of the fingerprint-based positioning methods require the target to stay static in the process of data collection, which are not applicable to the target positioning in a moving state. Common dynamic localization and tracking ...

With the development of the 5th generation (5G) networks and the massive amount of data, the operation and maintenance (O&M) mindset needs to change from “post-maintenance” to “pre-prevention”. In the wireless network, the fault has propagation ...

Digital Twins (DTs) have been proposed as digital replicas of physical entities (e.g., manufacturing equipment), which one can observe in real-time and interact with. Digital Twins of Networks (DTNs) are increasingly being discussed in the ...

This study proposed a fusion-based approach of Wi-Fi fingerprint positioning with relatively accurate UWB ranging in dense wireless networks (DWNs) to optimize indoor localization accuracy. Such an optimization was achieved through a proposed ...
