TL;DR: A dynamic distributed edge caching scheme to jointly minimize the request service delay and fronthaul traffic load and outperforms the baseline schemes under both static and time-variant user requests.

TL;DR: A collaborative filtering approach that enables the small base stations (SBSs) to exploit the correlation across similar user and application requirements to predict the QoE that a UE-SBS association delivers, and yields more precise bandwidth allocations reaching up to 19% spectrum savings, compared to conventional cell association approaches.

TL;DR: Simulation results show that the proposed integrated mmW-sub 6 GHz MAC protocol yields significant performance gains, in terms of maximizing the saturation throughput and minimizing the delay experienced by the STAs.

TL;DR: In this paper, a joint load balancing and interference mitigation problem is formulated as a network utility maximization subject to wireless backhaul constraints, and the problem is decoupled into dynamic scheduling of macro cell users, backhaul provisioning of self-backhauled small cells, and offloading macrocell users to small cells.

TL;DR: A two-timescale fronthaul-aware SDN control mechanism is proposed in which the controller maximizes the time-averaged network throughput by enforcing a coarse correlated equilibrium in the long timescale.
