Weighted Sum Rate Maximization for ITS-Aided Arrays in Multi-User MIMO
Robbert Beerten, Wen Shang, Tugce Kobal
This work explores the potential of integrating an Intelligent Transmissive Surface (ITS) into an antenna array to improve beamforming performance. We show that integrating a moder…
Anchor-and-Connect: Robotic Aerial Base Stations Transforming 6G Infrastructure
Wen Shang, Yuan Liao, Vasilis Friderikos +1
Despite the significant attention that aerial base stations (ABSs) have received recently, their practical implementation is severely weakened by their limited endurance due to the…
Joint Robotic Aerial Base Station Deployment and Wireless Backhauling in 6G Multi-hop Networks
Wen Shang, Yuan Liao, Vasilis Friderikos +1
Due to their ability to anchor into tall urban landforms, such as lampposts or street lights, robotic aerial base stations (RABSs) can create a hyper-flexible wireless multi-hop he…
The Energy-Delay Pareto Front in Cache-enabled Integrated Access and Backhaul mmWave HetNets
Wen Shang, Vasilis Friderikos
In this paper, to address backhaul capacity bottleneck and concurrently optimize energy consumption and delay, we formulate a novel weighted-sum multi-objective optimization proble…
