Outage Performance of Multi-tier UAV Communication with Random Beam Misalignment
Weihao Wang, Zesong Fei, Jing Guo +2
By exploiting the degree of freedom on the altitude, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication can provide ubiquitous communication for future wireless networks. In the case of c…
Underlay Drone Cell for Temporary Events: Impact of Drone Height and Aerial Channel Environments
Xiaohui Zhou, Salman Durrani, Jing Guo +1
Providing seamless connection to a large number of devices is one of the biggest challenges for the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. Using a drone as an aerial base station (ABS)…
Uplink Coverage Performance of an Underlay Drone Cell for Temporary Events
Xiaohui Zhou, Jing Guo, Salman Durrani +1
Using a drone as an aerial base station (ABS) to provide coverage to users on the ground is envisaged as a promising solution for beyond fifth generation (beyond-5G) wireless netwo…
Design of Non-orthogonal Multiple Access Enhanced Backscatter Communication
Jing Guo, Xiangyun Zhou, Salman Durrani +1
Backscatter communication (BackCom), which allows a backscatter node (BN) to communicate with the reader by modulating and reflecting the incident continuous wave from the reader,…
Power Beacon-Assisted Millimeter Wave Ad Hoc Networks
Xiaohui Zhou, Jing Guo, Salman Durrani +1
Deployment of low cost power beacons (PBs) is a promising solution for dedicated wireless power transfer (WPT) in future wireless networks. In this paper, we present a tractable mo…
Massive Machine Type Communication with Data Aggregation and Resource Scheduling
Jing Guo, Salman Durrani, Xiangyun Zhou +1
To enable massive machine type communication (mMTC), data aggregation is a promising approach to reduce the congestion caused by a massive number of machine type devices (MTDs). In…
