This paper studies the performance of a transmission and reception scheme for massive access under some practical challenges. One challenge is the near-far problem, i.e., an access point often receives signals from different transmitting devices at vastly different signal strengths. Another challenge is that the signals from different devices may be subject to arbitrary, analog, and heterogeneous ...Show More
The fundamental communication problem in the wireless Internet-of-Things (IoT) is to discover a massive number of devices and to provide them with reliable access to shared channels. Oftentimes these devices transmit short messages randomly and sporadically. This paper proposes a novel signaling scheme for grant-free massive access, where each device encodes its identity and/or information in a sp...Show More
In this article, we study an energy-efficient nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) enabled multiaccess edge computing (MEC) system with strict latency requirements. We aim to minimize the energy consumption of all users by optimizing the resource allocation (including power and computation resources) and subchannel assignment, subject to the given latency constraint. The formulated problem, howeve...Show More
The Internet-of-Things (IoT) platform is faced with critical challenges posed by the conflict between resource-hungry IoT applications and resource-constrained IoT devices. Mobile-edge computing provides a promising solution by allowing IoT devices to offload their computation to nearby edge servers to enable fast and energy-efficient data processing. In this article, we study a scenario, where tw...Show More
Mobile edge computing (MEC) has been considered as a promising technique to support computation-intensive and latency-sensitive multimedia applications (e.g., video analytics and real-time target tracking) in future 5G/6G systems, by enabling mobile terminals to offload computation workloads to edge servers. In this paper, we study a computation offloading scenario with hybrid multiple access meth...Show More
In this paper, we study resource allocation (including power and computation resources) and channel assignment in an uplink Non-orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA)-based Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) system. Our objective is to minimize the total energy consumption of all users. The problem, however, is a non-convex combinatorial optimization problem. We first investigate the hidden convexity by refor...Show More
