This work suggests a joint optimization of the aerial intelligent reflecting surface (AIRS) placement, passive beamforming, and base station (BS) association to improve the overall data throughput and fairness across downlink heterogeneous cellular networks. Differing from the related works in the l…
The beamforming problem of intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has been extensively considered from an optimization perspective assuming that channel state information (CSI) is available. However, the reality is that the existing prototypes seldom follow this model-based approach because channel es…
Conventional data compression methods typically model the information source as an i.i.d. stochastic process, thereby establishing the fundamental limit as entropy for lossless compression and as mutual information for lossy compression. However, the source in the real world (e.g., text, music, and…
The Normalized cut (NCut) problem is a fundamental and yet notoriously difficult one in the unsupervised clustering field. Because the NCut problem is fractionally structured, the fractional programming (FP) based approach has worked its way into a new frontier. However, the conventional FP techniqu…
Weighted minimum mean squared error (WMMSE) and fractional programming (FP) constitute two common approaches to the weighted sum-rate maximization in communication system design. One subtle issue with WMMSE and FP lies in the tuning of a Lagrange multiplier for the power constraint when it comes to…
A major challenge with the multi-ratio Fractional Program (FP) is that the existing methods for the maximization problem typically do not work for the minimization case. We propose a novel technique called inverse quadratic transform for the sum-of-ratios minimization problem. Its main idea is to re…
Robust optimization is an important task in wireless communications, because due to fading and feedback delay there is inherent uncertainty in channel state information in a wireless environment. This paper aims to show that a deep learning approach for network utility maximization can produce more…
The massive sensing data generated by Internet-of-Things will provide fuel for ubiquitous artificial intelligence (AI), while tremendous labels are required for AI model training via supervised learning. To tackle this challenge, a novel framework of wireless crowd labelling is proposed that downloa…
Pilot contamination is a main limiting factor in multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems due to the non-orthogonality of pilot sequences which can seriously impair the channel measurement. Recent work has suggested coordinating pilot sequence design across multiple cells by…
This paper proposes a joint uplink user scheduling and beam-forming algorithm for a multiple-antenna wireless cellular network. We show that coordinated optimization across the cells can significantly alleviate intercell interference, thereby improving the cell-edge rates in a multicell network. Unl…
