Joint allocation of spectrum and user association is considered for a large cellular network. The objective is to optimize a network utility function such as average delay given traffic statistics collected over a slow timescale. A key challenge is scalability: given $n$ Access Points (APs), there are $O(2^n)$ ways in which the APs can share the spectrum. The number of variables is reduced from $O(2^n)$ to $O(nk)$, where $k$ is the number of users, by optimizing over local overlapping neighborhoods, defined by interference conditions, and by exploiting the existence of sparse solutions in which the spectrum is divided into $k+1$ segments. We reformulate the problem by optimizing the assignment of subsets of active APs to those segments. An $ell_0$ constraint enforces a one-to-one mapping of subsets to spectrum, and an iterative (reweighted $ell_1$) algorithm is used to find an approximate solution. Numerical results for a network with 100 APs serving several hundred users show the proposed method achieves a substantial increase in total throughput relative to benchmark schemes.
A scalable framework is developed to allocate radio resources across a large number of densely deployed small cells with given traffic statistics on a slow timescale. Joint user association and spectrum allocation is first formulated as a convex opti
In this paper, we consider a single-cell multi-user orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) network with one unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which works as an amplify-and-forward relay to improve the quality-of-service (QoS) of the user
We integrate a wireless powered communication network with a cooperative cognitive radio network, where multiple secondary users (SUs) powered wirelessly by a hybrid access point (HAP) help a primary user relay the data. As a reward for the cooperati

In this paper, we investigate the performance of a dual-hop block fading cognitive radio network with underlay spectrum sharing over independent but not necessarily identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Nakagami-$m$ fading channels. The primary network
