Age of Information in Multi-Relay Networks with Maximum Age Scheduling

no code implementations20 Mar 2025 Gabriel Martins de Jesus, Felippe Moraes Pereira, João Luiz Rebelatto, Richard Demo Souza, Onel Alcaraz López

The latter two algorithms are newly proposed to let relays decide which one(s) will transmit in a given time slot, requiring less signaling than the former algorithms.

Probabilistic Allocation of Payload Code Rate and Header Copies in LR-FHSS Networks

no code implementations4 Oct 2024 Jamil de Araujo Farhat, Jean Michel de Souza Sant'Ana, João Luiz Rebelatto, Nurul Huda Mahmood, Gianni Pasolini, Richard Demo Souza

We evaluate the performance of the LoRaWAN Long-Range Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (LR-FHSS) technique using a device-level probabilistic strategy for code rate and header replica allocation.

Reinforcenment Learning-Aided NOMA Random Access: An AoI-Based Timeliness Perspective

no code implementations4 Oct 2024 Felippe Moraes Pereira, Jamil de Araujo Farhat, João Luiz Rebelatto, Glauber Brante, Richard Demo Souza

In this paper, we investigate the age-of-information (AoI) of a power domain non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network, where multiple internet-of-things (IoT) devices transmit to a common gateway in a grant-free random fashion.

Non-Orthogonal Multiple-Access Strategies for Direct-to-Satellite IoT Networks

no code implementations4 Sep 2024 Felipe Augusto Tondo, Jean Michel de Souza Sant'Ana, Samuel Montejo-Sánchez, Onel Luis Alcaraz López, Sandra Céspedes, Richard Demo Souza

Comparing FTP and CTP with regular ALOHA for 100 (600) devices, we find goodput improvements of 65% (29%) and 52% (101%), respectively.

Distributed MIMO Networks with Rotary ULAs for Indoor Scenarios under Rician Fading

no code implementations27 Jun 2024 Eduardo Noboro Tominaga, Onel Luis Alcaraz López, Tommy Svensson, Richard Demo Souza, Hirley Alves

Nevertheless, current 5G networks cannot fully meet the very stringent requirements regarding latency, reliability, and number of connected devices of most MTC use cases.

Performance Analysis of ML-based MTC Traffic Pattern Predictors

no code implementations4 Apr 2023 David E. Ruiz-Guirola, Onel L. A. Lopez, Samuel Montejo-Sanchez, Richard Demo Souza, Mehdi Bennis

Herein, we assess the performance of several machine learning (ML) methods to predict Poisson and quasi-periodic MTC traffic in terms of accuracy and computational cost.

Statistical Analysis of Received Signal Strength in Industrial IoT Distributed Massive MIMO Systems

no code implementations2 May 2022 Eduardo Noboro Tominaga, Onel Luiz Alcaraz López, Richard Demo Souza, Hirley Alves

The Fifth Generation (5G) of wireless networks introduced native support for Machine-Type Communication (MTC), which is a key enabler for the Internet of Things (IoT) revolution.

Network Slicing for eMBB and mMTC with NOMA and Space Diversity Reception

no code implementations13 Jan 2021 Eduardo Noboro Tominaga, Hirley Alves, Onel Luiz Alcaraz López, Richard Demo Souza, João Luiz Rebelatto, Matti Latva-aho

In this work we study the coexistence in the same Radio Access Network (RAN) of two generic services present in the Fifth Generation (5G) of wireless communication systems: enhanced Mobile BroadBand (eMBB) and massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC).

Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access and Network Slicing: Scalable Coexistence of eMBB and URLLC

no code implementations12 Jan 2021 Eduardo Noboro Tominaga, Hirley Alves, Richard Demo Souza, João Luiz Rebelatto, Matti Latva-aho

The diverse requirements of these services in terms of data-rates, number of connected devices, latency and reliability can lead to a sub-optimal use of the 5G network, thus network slicing is proposed as a solution that creates customized slices of the network specifically designed to meet the requirements of each service.

Hybrid Coded Replication in LoRa Networks

1 code implementation9 Jan 2020 Jean Michel de Souza Sant'Ana, Arliones Hoeller, Richard Demo Souza, Samuel Montejo-Sánchez, Hirley Alves, Mario de Noronha Neto

Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) are wireless connectivity solutions for Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications, including industrial automation.
