Age of Information in Non-Terrestrial Networks with Energy Harvesting

Fangming Zhao, Nikolaos Pappas, Shi Jin +1

We analyze the timeliness of status-update delivery in a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite-assisted energy-harvesting Internet of Things network using the Age of Information (AoI) me…

Probing for Better Age of Information in Energy-Harvesting Random Access Networks

Ziyi Li, Fangming Zhao, Howard H. Yang

In this paper, we investigate the impact of channel probing and reservation on the Age of Information (AoI) in energy-harvesting (EH) random access networks, where each source reli…

Age-Threshold Slotted ALOHA for Optimizing Information Freshness in Mobile Networks

Fangming Zhao, Nikolaos Pappas, Chuan Ma +3

We optimize the Age of Information (AoI) in mobile networks using the age-threshold slotted ALOHA (TSA) protocol. The network comprises multiple source-destination pairs, where eac…
