Providing ubiquitous connectivity to diverse device types is the key challenge for 5G and
beyond 5G (B5G). Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are expected to be an important …

Aerial-ground interference mitigation is a challenging issue in the emerging cellular-
connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications. Due to the strong line-of-sight …

In this work, we develop a pair of rate-diverse encoder and decoder for a two-user Gaussian
multiple access channel (GMAC). The proposed scheme enables the users to transmit with …

The operation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) imposes various challenges on radio
spectrum management to achieve safe operation, efficient spectrum utilization, and …

In this paper, we investigate the application of the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)
technique into the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) aided relay networks. Specifically, we first …

Abstract 5G wireless networks require highly spectral-efficient multiple access techniques,
which play an important role in determining the performance of mobile communication …

In this paper, we investigate downlink transmissions in a wireless communication system
enabled by a swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) which are spatially dispatched to …

Hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks (HSTNs) are considered to be a promising solution in
dealing with coverage and mobility challenges encountered in 5 th generation (5G) …

This article puts forth a new channel coding paradigm for multi-source information streams
with Age of Information (AoI) requirements. The recently introduced AoI metric characterizes …

This paper explores the application of physical-layer network coding (PNC) for short-packet
transmissions. PNC can potentially reduce the communication delay in relay-assisted …
