Multi-carrier, multi-band, and multi-layer cellular layouts using 3D beamforming for 5G ultradense networks

Leila Aissaoui Ferhi, Kaouthar Sethom, Fethi Choubani, Ridha Bouallegue
InnoV’Com Laboratory, Higher School of Communications (SUP’COM), Tunisia

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) beamforming and higher order sectorization (HOS) represent two fundamental features to boost the capacity of ultradense heterogeneous networks and fulfill the huge data rate requirements for next-generation mobile networks (5G). The capacity gain depends on the antenna pattern, the inter-cell interference (ICI), and the cellular layout whose design is considered as the main step in the life cycle of a cellular network.» Read the summary

Distributed scheduling with efficient collision detection for end-to-end delay optimization in 6TiSCH multi-hop wireless networks

Inès Hosni1,2
1 University of Tunis El Manar, National Engineering School of Tunis, Communications Systems Laboratory, LR-99-ES21, 1002, Tunis, Tunisia
2 College of Computer and Information Sciences, Jouf University, Sakakah, Saudi Arabia

Abstract It is expected that the IEEE 802.15.4e-TSCH designed for wireless industrial sensor networks will be used in IoT systems. This standard relies on techniques such as channel hopping and bandwidth reservation to ensure both energy savings and reliable transmissions. Since many applications may require low end-to-end delay (e.g.,» Read the summary
