In this work, we combine the two notions of timely delivery of information in order to study their interplay; namely, deadline-constrained packet delivery due to latency constraints and freshness of information at the destination. More specifically, we consider a two-user multiple access setup with random access, in which user 1 is a wireless device with a queue and has external bursty traffic which is deadline-constrained, while user 2 monitors a sensor and transmits status updates to the destination. For this simple, yet meaningful setup, we provide analytical expressions for the throughput and drop probability of user 1, and an analytical expression for the average Age of Information (AoI) of user 2 monitoring the sensor. The relations reveal that there is a trade-off between the average AoI of user 2 and the drop rate of user 1: the lower the average AoI, the higher the drop rate, and vice versa. Simulations corroborate the validity of our theoretical results.

In this paper, we study the interplay between delay violation probability and average Age of Information (AoI) in a two-user wireless multiple access channel with multipacket reception (MPR) capability. We consider a system in which users have hetero geneous traffic characteristics: one has stringent delay constraints, while the other measures a source and transmits status updates in order to keep the AoI low. We show the effect of sensor sampling rate on the delay violation probability and that of the service rate of the delay-sensitive user on information freshness.
Many systems require frequent and regular updates of a certain information. These updates have to be transferred regularly from the source to the destination. We consider scenarios in which an old packet becomes completely obsolete, in the presence o f a new packet. In this context, if a new packet arrives at the source while it is transferring a packet, one needs to decide the packet to be dropped. New packet has recent information, but might require more time to transfer. Thus it is not clear as to which packet to be dis- carded, and this is the main focus of the paper. Recently introduced performance metrics, called average age of information (AAoI) and peak age of information (PAoI) of the information available at the destination, are the relevant performance measures. These type of systems do not require storage buffers, of size more than one, at the source queue. We consider single source / multiple sources regularly updating information to a single destination possibly over wireless channels to derive optimal drop policies that optimize the AAoI. We showed that the state independent (static) policies like dropping always the old packets or dropping always the new packets is optimal in many scenarios, among an appropriate set of stationary Markov policies. We consider relevant games when multiple sources compete. In many scenarios, the non-cooperative solution almost minimizes the social objective, the sum of AAoIs of all the sources.

This letter provides a simple but efficient technique, which allows each transmitter of an interference network, to exchange local channel state information with the other transmitters. One salient feature of the proposed technique is that a transmit ter only needs measurements of the signal power at its intended receiver to implement it, making direct inter-transmitter signaling channels unnecessary. The key idea to achieve this is to use a transient period during which the continuous power level of a transmitter is taken to be the linear combination of the channel gains to be exchanged.
Dual-Functional Radar-Communication (DFRC) system is an essential and promising technique for beyond 5G. In this work, we propose a powerful and unified multi-antenna DFRC transmission framework, where an additional radar sequence is transmitted apar t from communication streams to enhance radar beampattern matching capability, and Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) is adopted to better manage the interference. RSMA relies on multi-antenna Rate-Splitting (RS) with Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) receivers, and the split and encoding of messages into common and private streams. We design the message split and the precoders of the radar sequence and communication streams to jointly maximize the Weighted Sum Rate (WSR) and minimize the radar beampattern approximation Mean Square Error (MSE) subject to the per antenna power constraint. An iterative algorithm based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is developed to solve the problem. Numerical results first show that RSMA-assisted DFRC achieves a better tradeoff between WSR and beampattern approximation than Space-Division Multiple Access (SDMA)-assisted DFRC with or without radar sequence, and other simpler radar-communication strategies using orthogonal resources. We also show that the RSMA-assisted DFRC frameworks with and without radar sequence achieve the same tradeoff performance. This is because that the common stream is better exploited in the proposed framework. The common stream of RSMA fulfils the triple function of managing interference among communication users, managing interference between communication and radar, and beampattern approximation. Therefore, by enabling RSMA in DFRC, the system performance is enhanced while the system architecture is simplified since there is no need to use additional radar sequence and SIC. We conclude that RSMA is a more powerful multiple access for DFRC.
Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA), relying on multi-antenna Rate-Splitting (RS) techniques, has emerged as a powerful strategy for multi-user multi-antenna systems. In this paper, RSMA is introduced as a unified multiple access for multi-antenna radar-communication (RadCom) system, where the base station has a dual communication and radar capability to simultaneously communicate with downlink users and probe detection signals to azimuth angles of interests. Using RS, messages are split into common and private parts, then encoded into common and private streams before being precoded and transmitted. We design the message split and the precoders for this RadCom system such that the Weighted Sum Rate (WSR) is maximized and the transmit beampattern is approximated to the desired radar beampattern under an average transmit power constraint at each antenna. We then propose a framework based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) to solve the complicated non-convex optimization problem. Results highlight the benefits of RSMA to unify RadCom transmissions and to manage the interference among radar and communications, over the conventional Space-Division Multiple Access (SDMA) technique.
