Small cell enchantment is emerging as the key technique for wireless network evolution. One challenging problem for small cell enhancement is how to achieve high data rate with as-low-as-possible control and computation overheads. As a solution, we propose a low-complexity distributed optimization framework in this paper. Our solution includes two parts. One is a novel implicit information exchange mechanism that enables channel-aware opportunistic scheduling and resource allocation among links. The other is the sub-gradient based algorithm with a polynomial-time complexity. What is more, for large scale systems, we design an improved distributed algorithm based on insights obtained from the problem structure. This algorithm achieves a close-to-optimal performance with a much lower complexity. Our numerical evaluations validate the analytical results and show the advantage of our algorithms.

Next-generation networks are expected to be ultra-dense with a very high peak rate but relatively lower expected traffic per user. For such scenario, existing central controller based resource allocation may incur substantial signaling (control commu nications) leading to a negative effect on the quality of service (e.g. drop calls), energy and spectrum efficiency. To overcome this problem, cognitive ad-hoc networks (CAHN) that share spectrum with other networks are being envisioned. They allow some users to identify and communicate in `free slots thereby reducing signaling load and allowing the higher number of users per base stations (dense networks). Such networks open up many interesting challenges such as resource identification, coordination, dynamic and context-aware adaptation for which Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence framework offers novel solutions. In this paper, we discuss state-of-the-art multi-armed multi-player bandit based distributed learning algorithms that allow users to adapt to the environment and coordinate with other players/users. We also discuss various open research problems for feasible realization of CAHN and interesting applications in other domains such as energy harvesting, Internet of Things, and Smart grids.
This paper investigates learning-based caching in small-cell networks (SCNs) when user preference is unknown. The goal is to optimize the cache placement in each small base station (SBS) for minimizing the system long-term transmission delay. We mode l this sequential multi-agent decision making problem in a multi-agent multi-armed bandit (MAMAB) perspective. Rather than estimating user preference first and then optimizing the cache strategy, we propose several MAMAB-based algorithms to directly learn the cache strategy online in both stationary and non-stationary environment. In the stationary environment, we first propose two high-complexity agent-based collaborative MAMAB algorithms with performance guarantee. Then we propose a low-complexity distributed MAMAB which ignores the SBS coordination. To achieve a better balance between SBS coordination gain and computational complexity, we develop an edge-based collaborative MAMAB with the coordination graph edge-based reward assignment method. In the non-stationary environment, we modify the MAMAB-based algorithms proposed in the stationary environment by proposing a practical initialization method and designing new perturbed terms to adapt to the dynamic environment. Simulation results are provided to validate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithms. The effects of different parameters on caching performance are also discussed.

The simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surface (STAR-RIS) is capable of providing full-space coverage of smart radio environments. This work investigates STAR-RIS aided downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) multi-cell networks, where the energy of incident signals at STAR-RISs is split into two portions for transmitting and reflecting. We first propose a fitting method to model the distribution of composite small-scale fading power as the tractable Gamma distribution. Then, a unified analytical framework based on stochastic geometry is provided to capture the random locations of RIS-RISs, base stations (BSs), and user equipments (UEs). Based on this framework, we derive the coverage probability and ergodic rate of both the typical UE and the connected UE. In particular, we obtain closed-form expressions of the coverage probability in interference-limited scenarios. We also deduce theoretical expressions in traditional RIS aided networks for comparison. The analytical results show that there exist optimal energy splitting coefficients of STAR-RISs to simultaneously maximize the system coverage and ergodic rate. The numerical results demonstrate that: 1) RISs enhance the system coverage and NOMA schemes help improve the rate performance; 2) in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions, STAR-RISs outperform traditional RISs while in high SNR regions the conclusion is opposite.
We design a framework for truthful double multi-channel spectrum auctions where each seller (or buyer) can sell (or buy) multiple spectrum channels based on their individual needs. Open, market-based spectrum trading motivates existing spectrum owner s (as sellers) to lease their selected idle spectrum channels to new spectrum users (as buyers) who need the spectrum desperately. The most significant requirement is how to make the auction economic-robust (truthful in particular) while enabling spectrum reuse to improve spectrum utilization. Additionally, in practice, both sellers and buyers would require to trade multiple channels at one time, while guaranteeing their individual profitability. Unfortunately, none of the existing designs can meet all these requirements simultaneously. We address these requirements by proposing True-MCSA, a framework for truthful double multi-channel spectrum auctions. True-MCSA takes as input any reusability-driven spectrum allocation algorithm, introduces novel virtual buyer group (VBG) splitting and bidding algorithms, and applies a winner determination and pricing mechanism to achieve truthfulness and other economic properties while improving spectrum utilization and successfully dealing with multi-channel requests from both buyers and sellers. Our results show that the auction efficiency is impacted by the economic factors with efficiency degradations within 30%, under different experimental settings. Furthermore, the experimental results indicate that we can improve the auction efficiency by choosing a proper bidding algorithm and using a base bid. True-MCSA makes an important contribution on enabling spectrum reuse to improve auction efficiency in multi-channel cases.

Passive monitoring utilizing distributed wireless sniffers is an effective technique to monitor activities in wireless infrastructure networks for fault diagnosis, resource management and critical path analysis. In this paper, we introduce a quality of monitoring (QoM) metric defined by the expected number of active users monitored, and investigate the problem of maximizing QoM by judiciously assigning sniffers to channels based on the knowledge of user activities in a multi-channel wireless network. Two types of capture models are considered. The user-centric model assumes frame-level capturing capability of sniffers such that the activities of different users can be distinguished while the sniffer-centric model only utilizes the binary channel information (active or not) at a sniffer. For the user-centric model, we show that the implied optimization problem is NP-hard, but a constant approximation ratio can be attained via polynomial complexity algorithms. For the sniffer-centric model, we devise stochastic inference schemes to transform the problem into the user-centric domain, where we are able to apply our polynomial approximation algorithms. The effectiveness of our proposed schemes and algorithms is further evaluated using both synthetic data as well as real-world traces from an operational WLAN.
