In this paper, we consider a multiuser uplink status update system, where a monitor aims to timely collect randomly generated status updates from multiple end nodes through a shared wireless channel. We adopt the recently proposed metric, termed age of information (AoI), to quantify the information timeliness and freshness. Due to the random generation of the status updates at the end node side, the monitor only grasps a partial knowledge of the status update arrivals. Under such a practical scenario, we aim to address a fundamental multiuser scheduling problem: how to schedule the end nodes to minimize the network-wide AoI? To solve this problem, we formulate it as a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP), and develop a dynamic programming (DP) algorithm to obtain the optimal scheduling policy. By noting that the optimal policy is computationally prohibitive, we further design a low-complexity myopic policy that only minimizes the one-step expected reward. Simulation results show that the performance of the myopic policy can approach that of the optimal policy, and is better than that of the baseline policy.
This paper considers a wireless network with a base station (BS) conducting timely status updates to multiple clients via adaptive non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)/orthogonal multiple access (OMA). Specifically, the BS is able to adaptively swit
It is becoming increasingly clear that an important task for wireless networks is to minimize the age of information (AoI), i.e., the timeliness of information delivery. While mainstream approaches generally rely on the real-time observation of user
We consider the age of information in a multicast network where there is a single source node that sends time-sensitive updates to $n$ receiver nodes. Each status update is one of two kinds: type I or type II. To study the age of information experien
Given $n$ randomly located source-destination (S-D) pairs on a fixed area network that want to communicate with each other, we study the age of information with a particular focus on its scaling as the network size $n$ grows. We propose a three-phase
We consider the age of information in a multihop multicast network where there is a single source node sending time-sensitive updates to $n^L$ end nodes, and $L$ denotes the number of hops. In the first hop, the source node sends updates to $n$ first
