IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications

Enhancement of the Publication Process for IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications

Communications has been incredible since its inception in 2001. The journal now receives 1600 plus submissions per year and has become one of the most downloaded journals within IEEE Xplore. However, we should not stop there, and our goal is to continuously enhance the journal and build on its current success. by the journals steering committee. My role is to oversee and monitor the publication...

Joint Optimal Power Control and Beamforming in Wireless Networks Using Antenna Arrays - Communications, IEEE Transactions on

The interference reduction capability of antenna arrays and the power control algorithms have been considered separately as means to increase the capacity in wireless communication networks. The minimum variance distortionless response beamformer maximizes the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) when it is employed in the receiver of a wireless link. In a system with omnidirectional a...

Random Access With Multi-Packet Reception SUBMITTED TO THE IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

The queuing performance of a finite-user slotted-Aloha type random access protocol with multipacket reception capability at the base station is considered. The system evolution under this protocol can be described by a finite dimensional Markov chain, which is not amenable to analysis due to complex interactions between user queues. A “user-centric” analysis approach is proposed, which focuses ...

An Integrated Services MAC Protocol For Local Wireless Communications - Vehicular Technology, IEEE Transactions on

This paper proposes a medium-access control (MAC) protocol for integrated voice/data services in local wireless communications. The proposed protocol is a hybrid of R-Aloha and Aloha reservation adapted to local wireless environment. In the proposed hybrid Aloha-reservation/R-Aloha (HAR) protocol, data messages are transmitted using Aloha-reservation protocol, whereas voice packets are transmit...
