Joint Container Placement and Task Provisioning in Dynamic Fog Computing
TL;DR: A low-complex particle-swarm-optimization-based metaheuristic and a greedy heuristic capable of flexible service provisioning in a dynamic fog computing environment are proposed that aim to optimize the number of served end-users with a predefined delay-threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerial Platforms with Reconfigurable Smart Surfaces for 5G and Beyond
Safwan Alfattani,Wael Jaafar,Yassine Hmamouche,Halim Yanikomeroglu,Abbas Yongacoglu,Ngoc Dung Dao,Peiying Zhu +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss comprehensive approaches to the integration of reconfigurable smart surfaces (RSS) in aerial platforms, and propose a control architecture workflow for UAVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Access in Aerial Networks: From Orthogonal and Non-Orthogonal to Rate-Splitting
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive survey of key multiple access technologies adopted for aerial networks, where aBSs are deployed to serve ground users is presented, and the weighted sum-rate performance of a two-user network served by an RSMA-based aBS is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Downlink Performance of RSMA-Based UAV Communications
TL;DR: This correspondence presents an in-depth look into the integration of rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) with UAV-BSs and downlink transmissions, and proposes a novel alternating optimization method.
Journal ArticleDOI
