Mobile edge computing (MEC) integrated with multiple radio access technologies (RATs) is a promising technique for satisfying the growing low-latency computation demand of emerging intelligent internet of things (IoT) applications. Under the distributed MapReduce framework, this paper investigates the joint RAT selection and transceiver design for over-the-air (OTA) aggregation of intermediate values (IVAs) in wireless multiuser MEC systems, while taking into account the energy budget constraint for the local computing and IVA transmission per wireless device (WD). We aim to minimize the weighted sum of the computation mean squared error (MSE) of the aggregated IVA at the RAT receivers, the WDs IVA transmission cost, and the associated transmission time delay, which is a mixed-integer and non-convex problem. Based on the Lagrange duality method and primal decomposition, we develop a low-complexity algorithm by solving the WDs RAT selection problem, the WDs transmit coefficients optimization problem, and the aggregation beamforming problem. Extensive numerical results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and merit of our proposed algorithm as compared with other existing schemes.

Traffic load balancing and radio resource management is key to harness the dense and increasingly heterogeneous deployment of next generation $5$G wireless infrastructure. Strategies for aggregating user traffic from across multiple radio access tech
nologies (RATs) and/or access points (APs) would be crucial in such heterogeneous networks (HetNets), but are not well investigated. In this paper, we develop a low complexity solution for maximizing an $alpha$-optimal network utility leveraging the multi-link aggregation (simultaneous connectivity to multiple RATs/APs) capability of users in the network. The network utility maximization formulation has maximization of sum rate ($alpha=0$), maximization of minimum rate ($alpha to infty$), and proportional fair ($alpha=1$) as its special cases. A closed form is also developed for the special case where a user aggregates traffic from at most two APs/RATs, and hence can be applied to practical scenarios like LTE-WLAN aggregation (LWA) and LTE dual-connectivity solutions. It is shown that the required objective may also be realized through a decentralized implementation requiring a series of message exchanges between the users and network. Using comprehensive system level simulations, it is shown that optimal leveraging of multi-link aggregation leads to substantial throughput gains over single RAT/AP selection techniques.
This paper considers an energy harvesting (EH) based multiuser mobile edge computing (MEC) system, where each user utilizes the harvested energy from renewable energy sources to execute its computation tasks via computation offloading and local compu
ting. Towards maximizing the systems weighted computation rate (i.e., the number of weighted users computing bits within a finite time horizon) subject to the users energy causality constraints due to dynamic energy arrivals, the decision for joint computation offloading and local computing over time is optimized {em over time}. Assuming that the profile of channel state information and dynamic task arrivals at the users is known in advance, the weighted computation rate maximization problem becomes a convex optimization problem. Building on the Lagrange duality method, the well-structured optimal solution is analytically obtained. Both the users local computing and offloading rates are shown to have a monotonically increasing structure. Numerical results show that the proposed design scheme can achieve a significant performance gain over the alternative benchmark schemes.
Age of Information (AoI), defined as the time elapsed since the generation of the latest received update, is a promising performance metric to measure data freshness for real-time status monitoring. In many applications, status information needs to b
e extracted through computing, which can be processed at an edge server enabled by mobile edge computing (MEC). In this paper, we aim to minimize the average AoI within a given deadline by jointly scheduling the transmissions and computations of a series of update packets with deterministic transmission and computing times. The main analytical results are summarized as follows. Firstly, the minimum deadline to guarantee the successful transmission and computing of all packets is given. Secondly, a emph{no-wait computing} policy which intuitively attains the minimum AoI is introduced, and the feasibility condition of the policy is derived. Finally, a closed-form optimal scheduling policy is obtained on the condition that the deadline exceeds a certain threshold. The behavior of the optimal transmission and computing policy is illustrated by numerical results with different values of the deadline, which validates the analytical results.
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has emerged as a promising technology for achieving high spectrum and energy efficiency in future wireless communication networks. In this paper, we investigate an RIS-aided single-cell multi-user mobile edge
computing (MEC) system where an RIS is deployed to support the communication between a base station (BS) equipped with MEC servers and multiple single-antenna users. To utilize the scarce frequency resource efficiently, we assume that users communicate with BS based on a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) protocol. Each user has a computation task which can be computed locally or partially/fully offloaded to the BS. We aim to minimize the sum energy consumption of all users by jointly optimizing the passive phase shifters, the size of transmission data, transmission rate, power control, transmission time and the decoding order. Since the resulting problem is non-convex, we use the block coordinate descent method to alternately optimize two separated subproblems. More specifically, we use the dual method to tackle a subproblem with given phase shift and obtain the closed-form solution; and then we utilize penalty method to solve another subproblem for given power control. Moreover, in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm, we propose three benchmark schemes: the time-division multiple access (TDMA)-MEC scheme, the full local computing scheme and the full offloading scheme. We use an alternating 1-D search method and the dual method that can solve the TDMA-based transmission problem well. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can increase the energy efficiency and achieve significant performance gains over the three benchmark schemes.
Symbiotic radio (SR) is emerging as a spectrum- and energy-efficient communication paradigm for future passive Internet-of-things (IoT), where some single-antenna backscatter devices, referred to as Tags, are parasitic in an active primary transmissi
on. The primary transceiver is designed to assist both direct-link (DL) and backscatter-link (BL) communication. In multi-tags SR systems, the transceiver designs become much more complicated due to the presence of DL and inter-Tag interference, which further poses new challenges to the availability and reliability of DL and BL transmission. To overcome these challenges, we formulate the stochastic optimization of transceiver design as the general network utility maximization problem (GUMP). The resultant problem is a stochastic multiple-ratio fractional non-convex problem, and consequently challenging to solve. By leveraging some fractional programming techniques, we tailor a surrogate function with the specific structure and subsequently develop a batch stochastic parallel decomposition (BSPD) algorithm, which is shown to converge to stationary solutions of the GNUMP. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by numerical examples in terms of the achieved system throughput.
