On Cloud Radio Access Networks:Information Theoretic Considerations

Abstract: Cloud radio access networks (C-RANs) emerge asappealing architectures for next-generation wireless/cellularsystems whereby the processing/decoding is migrated fromthe local base-stations/radio units (RU) to a control/centralunits (CU) in the "cloud".

This is facilitated by fronthaul links connecting the RUs to themanaging CUs. We focus on oblivious RUs, and hence thefronthaul links carry digital information about the basebandsignals, in the uplink from the RUs to the CU and vice versa inthe downlink. The high data rate service demands in C-RANs,imply that even with fast (optical) fronthauls, efficientcompression of the basedand signals is of critical importance.

In this talk we review the basic approaches to this setting, withfocus on advanced signal processing solutions, emerging bynetwork information theoretic concepts. Analysis and numericalresults illustrate the considerable performance gains to beexpected for standard simple cellular models.

Caching at the Edge: Efficient on-DemandVideo Streaming over Wireless

Abstract: Video is responsible for 66% of the 100x increase ofwireless data traffic predicted in the next few years. This talk

gives a survey of a novel transmission paradigm based on thefollowing two key properties: (i) video shows a high degree ofasynchronous content reuse, and (ii) storage is the fastest-increasing quantity in modern hardware. Based on theseproperties, we suggest caching in helper stations (femto-caching) and/or directly into the user devices, combined withhighly spectrally efficient short-range communications todeliver video files. We present results based on uncoded device-to-device and network coded multicast delivery that show a``Moore's law'' for throughput: namely, in a certain regime of

sufficiently high content reuse, the per-user throughput


5/31

increases linearly with the cache size, and it is independent ofthe number of users, despite the fact that these users makeindependent and individual video files requests, i.e., the systemdoes not exploit the naive broadcasting property of the wireless

medium to send the same source to everybody. We also discussdynamic adaptive schemes for smooth streaming in suchnetworks, that can be regarded as a multiuser multiple serverversion of DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP), andcan be derived systematically from a general Network UtilityMaximization problem, where the network utility is a function ofthe user video qualities, capturing a desired notion of fairness.

Frugal Sensing and Estimation overWireless Networks

Abstract: Spectrum sensing and channel estimation are twoimportant background tasks needed for efficient wirelessnetwork operations. As we move towards truly agile spectrumaccess, channel and spectrum state communication overheadscan become a serious burden unless we design appropriatesensing and estimation strategies that can do the job well withverylimited, judicious feedback. In this talk, we will consider twofrugal sensing and estimation problems in this regime:crowdsourced power spectrum sensing using a network ofsensors broadcasting few bits; and channel tracking fortransmit beamforming in FDD mode. In the case of spectrum

sensing, the approach can be seen as generalizing classicalspectral analysis to the case of spectrum estimation frompower inequalities. We will discuss both passive and activesensing strategies, ranging from energy minimization tomaximum likelihood, cutting plane, and parametric model-basedmethods. We will show that accurate power spectrum sensing ispossible from few bits, even for dense spectra. Turning tochannel estimation and tracking for transmit beamforming, wewill consider a downlink scenario where the receiver has verylimited computation and uplink communication capabilities.

Shifting the estimation burden from the receiver to thetransmitter, we will explore effective channel acquisition andtracking strategies using coarse and infrequent CSI feedback.

Designing a Possible 5G Framework withGFDM

Abstract: Two of the main challenges for designing the physicallayer of the 5G cellular system are:

- Low latency, requiring very short packet sizes, mostlikely shorter than the duration of one LTE OFDM

symbol- Massive M2M, requiring at least 10K sensors to beconnected to a cell, which again requires relaxing therequirement on synchronization to minimize theoverhead and maximize the power efficiency of M2Mdevices

Another challenge is that it would be of great advantage if theclocking system of 5G was compatible with LTE. The largenumber of LTE bands which need to be addressed by terminalshas created a major challenge in designing clocking and

frequency architectures.When using multi-carrier modulation,the short packet size challenge leads to very short symbols.This leads to a highly increased subcarrier spacing whencompared with LTE. Hence, per subcarrier now frequencyselectivity of the channel kicks in, which again leads to inter-symbol-interference and inter-carrier-interference.

Another challenge exists when addressing the integration of amassive amount of asynchronous M2M terminals in a multi-carrier multiple-access system. In this case sometime/frequency resources, as e.g. a resource block of LTE,

arrive asynchronously in time and in frequency at the base

station. This leads to inter-carrier and inter-symbolinterference. Summarizing, a large challenge is thatorthogonality of a classic multi-carrier modulation is lost. Apossible way out is to move to advanced multicarrier systems,

which are not necessarily based on orthogonal signaling.

A promising approach is GFDM, Generalized Frequency DivisionMultiplexing. One basic feature is tail-biting filtering whichallows for spectral/time engineering of transmission packets,i.e. a tradeoff of time leakage and frequency leakage can becarefully engineered such that tough requirements can be met.As a result, for GFDM tough synchronization requirements incase of a multiple subcarrier based access as in OFDMA do notexist. This allows for asynchronous operations of differentterminals in a multiple-access scenario. Also, extremely small

out-of-band leakage enables addressing multiple challenges.First, it allows for dense packing in spectrum, second, it allowsfor a digital generation of signals for/with discontinuousspectrum aggregation, dramatically relaxing the requirementson analog filters, and therefore thirdly, it allows for cost-effective multiband transceiver designs, as needed to operate inthe massive amount of frequency bands of 3GPP systems.

Finally, we want to show a possible frame structure with GFDM,which perfectly matches the clocking architecture of the

existing LTE system. Hence, by proposing GFDM as a newwaveform for 5G, the requirements can be met without breakingwith current implementation architectures and concepts. On thecontrary, LTE can be easily generated as a special case of a 5GGFDM transceiver.

5G Efficient Wireless Design

Abstract: Assume that one is given the ability to design fromscratch a network deployment to uniformly cover a given areawith maximal energy efficiency (EE). What are the optimalnumber of antennas, active users, and transmitpower taking

into account the mobility pattern? The aim of this talk is toanswer this fundamental question. We consider jointly the uplinkand downlink with different processing schemes at the basestation and propose a new realistic power consumption modelthat reveals how the above parameters affect the EE. Closed-form expressions for the EE-optimal value of each parameterare provided for several signal processing schemes. Theexpressions prove in particular how the parameters interactand highlight in which regime Massive MIMO or Small Cells arethe answer.

High Performance Random Access Schemesfor Satellite Networks From Theory to

PracticeAbstract: Over the past years there has been a fast growingdemand for low-cost interactive satellite terminals supportingboth fixed and mobile services, such as consumer broadbandaccess, machine-to-machine communications, SCADA,transaction and safety of life applications. These networks aregenerally characterized by a large population of terminalssharing the available resources under very dynamic trafficconditions. In particular, in the return link (user to network) ofcommercial satellite broadband access networks, residential

users are likely to generate a large amount of low duty cyclebursty traffic with extended inactivity periods. A similarsituation occurs in satellite mobile networks whereby a largenumber of terminals typically generate infrequent packets forsignalling transmission as well for positionreporting or othermessaging applications. These services call for the developmentof efficient multiple access protocols able to cope with theabove operating conditions. The traditional Combined Free andDemand Assignment Multiple Access (CF-DAMA) satelliteprotocol used in many professional satellite networks will not

perform optimally. Besides, for short packet transmissions, thesignalling overhead used for the reservation of the channel iscomparable to the capacity needed for the transmission of themessage.

The talk will provide a review of modern RA schemes well suitedfor the provision of the above-mentioned services over thesatellite channel with potential spin-off in terrestrial wirelessapplications such as Machine-to-Machine. First the keyterrestrial random access techniques and their applicability tothe satellite environment will be shortly reviewed. Then modern

random access schemes with high performance over the


8/31

satellite environment will be discussed reporting someanalytical, simulation and real implementation performance.Capacity bounds for spread-spectrum and non-spread-spectrum RA schemes will be also reviewed to assess the

current RA techniques sub-optimality. Satellite systems andstandards adopting random access for the return link will alsobe listed. Finally, the future research perspectives will beillustrated.

Low Power Wi-Fi How IEEE 802.11ah isTransforming M2M

Abstract:In 5 years the number of smart devices accessing tothe Internet will 5 times exceed peoples population, and most of

the devices will access the Internet by wireless. Unfortunatelyexisting wireless networking technologies cannot supportswarms of battery supplied devices transmitting shortmessages. To work up the emerging M2M market with itschallenging demands, 3GPP, IEEE, IETF and other internationalorganizations are currently adopting their standards.

For example, the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee(LMSC) has formed IEEE 802.11ah Task Group (TGah) to extendthe applicability area of IEEE 802.11 networks by designing anenergy efficient protocol, which allows thousands of indoor andoutdoor devices working at the same area. Apart from new PHYlayer providing much longer transmission range than the legacyone, TGah has put much effort in improving channel access byreducing channel busy time, collisions and power consumptionin typical M2M scenarios, when thousands of stations transmitshort packets. Although IEEE 802.11ah is expected to be adoptedin 2016, the main part of work has already been done and thestandard development process is at the refinement stage now.

In the tutorial we will focus on M2M requirements and verypromising revolutionary improvements developed by TGah tomeet them.

Designing Intelligent Energy HarvestingCommunication Networks

Abstract: Devices powered by energy harvesting (EH) areincreasingly being deployed in practice, in place of theirtraditional, battery-operated counterparts, when factors suchas the sheer number of nodes or inaccessibility render batteryreplacement difficult and cost-prohibitive. Their deploymentspans the whole gamut of autonomous networked systems:from machineto- machine and sensor networks, to smartbuildings and grid asset monitoring. It is no surprise that theglobal EH market is rapidly expanding: it is expected to reach1894.87 million dollars by 2017 at an estimated annual growthrate of 24.31. In addition, the interest of the communications and

networking research community on EH technologies has steadily


10/31

been growing, as manifested by the ever-increasing number ofpublications and workshops on this topic. In contrast tobatteryoperated devices, where minimizing energy consumptionis crucial to prolong lifetime, in EH-powered devices, the

objective is the intelligent management of the harvested energyto ensure long-term, uninterrupted operation. This tutorial willprovide a comprehensive overview of recent developments inthe design of energy management policies for EHcommunication systems. We focus on analytical models thatcapture the main challenges related to their design: theintermittent nature of harvested energy, the limited capacityand energy leakage in energy storage devices, and theconstraints on device size and complexity. We will describeanalytical tools from communication theory, Markov decisionprocesses and learning theory which are employed tocharacterize the optimal policies, and to evaluate theperformance of low-complexity, near-optimal policies. Thetutorial will examine in detail point-to-point as well as multi-user networks and explore the implications of EH on theirperformance.

Smart Device to Smart DeviceCommunication for 5G

Abstract: A nalysts predict an explosive growth in trafficdemand on mobile broadband systems over the coming yearsdue to the popularity of streaming video, gaming, and othersocial media services. While 4G wireless technologies aremaking a significant effort to keep up with this demand, theexpectation is that cellular deployments will fall short of the

required capacity unless there is a dramatic shift towardssmaller cells. There is already a significant interest in femtoand picocells deployments for this reason. However, there isanother method of creating small cells that the wirelessindustry has yet to capitalize on, namely direct connectivitybetween clients in close proximity. 3GPP is currently working toenable smart device-to-device (D2D) communications withinRelease 12 of LTE-Advanced (LTE-A). This tutorial considers D2Dcommunication over LTE-A band and aims to motivateresearchers, operators and manufacturers to broaden their

knowledge on D2D communication. While explaining D2Dcommunication, we consider 3GPP LTE-A as a baseline.Moreover, this tutorial explains all fundamental requirementsfor deploying D2D network under cellular system from anarchitectural, technical and business point of view and presentsreal life applications and use cases. In the end, detailed systemlevel simulation will be performed to analyze the performanceof D2D communication in LTE-A system. Energy and throughputefficiency of the system will be used as a performance metrics.

Objectives: Although ad-hoc WLAN mode has been available in

802.11 for many years, the usage has been rather limited

compared with the infrastructure mode. Nevertheless, therehas been an increased interest in D2D communication recently,as manifested by the WiFi Direct specifications and proposalsfor LTE-A D2D standardization. A key motivation for D2D

connectivity is the potential for operators to offload traffic fromthe core network, and the framework for a new communicationparadigm to support social networking through localization asshown in Figure 1. The current ad-hoc mode of communicationdoes not support this functionality due to configurationcomplexity. As a first step towards LTE-A D2D, 3GPP hasrecently consolidated a move towards a D2D technology(Release 12 June 2012) on this topic and besides 3GPP, IEEE802.15.4g smart utility networks (SUN) is also profoundlyfocused on D2D technology.

D2D communication uses cellular spectrum (license band)supported by a cellular infrastructure and promises three typesof gain: the proximity of user equipment (UE) may allow forextremely high bit rates, low delays and low energyconsumption; the reuse gain implies that radio resources maybe simultaneously used by cellular as well as D2D links,tightening the reuse factor, even on reuse-1 system; finally, thehop gain refers to using both uplink and downlink resourceswhen communicating via the access point in the cellular mode.Moreover, D2D communication may extend the cellular coverageand facilitate new types of wireless peer-to-peer serviceswhilst at the same time increase the energy efficiency ofcommunication. It is clear that D2D can offer a palette ofinteresting colours that can paint new business opportunitiesfor mobile stakeholders promoting its candidacy for nextgeneration wireless

Energy Efficiency in 5G Heterogeneous andSmall-Cell Wireless Networks

Abstract:The exponential increase of wireless devices and thedemand for higher communication rates has put forward theissue of sustainable growth of modern wireless communicationsystems. Future wireless networks will be required to provide

much higher data-rates, but at a similar power consumption aspresent networks, which makes energy efficiency optimization anatural need. Also, saving energy is important in order to extendthe lifetime of battery-powered devices and to reduce theamount of electromagnetic pollution. Thus, a crucial challenge infuture wireless networks is the development of resourceallocation schemes able to strike the optimal balance betweenreliably transmitting with high rates and saving as much energyas possible. The aim of this tutorial is to provide a solidtheoretical framework to model and handle energy-efficientproblems in future heterogeneous and small-cell networks, as

well as to describe the latest findings in the field.

The tutorial is divided into two parts. Energy-efficient problemsare naturally formulated as fractional problems in which theratio between the performance in terms of rate and reliability,and the consumed energy, is to be optimized. The first part ofthe tutorial provides the audience with a comprehensiveoverview on fractional programming theory, explaining theconcepts and key-tools to understand and formulate energy-efficient problems. By means of simple examples we will showhow different energy-efficient problems from real-worldsystems fit into the fractional theory framework. The essential


13/31

notion of generalized convexity is introduced and the mostpopular approaches and algorithms to solve fractional problemsare described. At the end of Part I, the audience will be able totackle the widely-encountered single-ratio maximization

problem, as well as more advanced problems such as themaximization of a sum of ratios or of the minimum of a family ofratios, which are also often encountered in heterogeneousnetworks and in worst-case designs. The second part of thetutorial focuses on state-of-the-art applications and results. Inparticular, OFDMA, MIMO, and multi-hop networks areconsidered, with particular emphasis on future heterogeneousand small-cell wireless networks.

The focus is both on cooperative resource allocation schemesto be centrally implemented, and on distributed algorithms

which allow for self-organizing networks. Centralized anddistributed schemes are compared in terms of performance,feedback requirements, and computational complexity, clearlypointing out pros and cons of the two approaches. The latestresearch directions and open issues are discussed, describingthe challenges that future cellular networks pose as far asenergy-efficient designs are concerned. The target audienceincludes both academic researchers interested in studying thetheoretical foundation of energy-efficient wirelesscommunications, and industry practitioners wishing to learn thelatest results and findings about energy efficiency in wirelessnetworks.

Network Processing with BayesianGraphical Models, with Applications toDistributed Positioning and Sensing

Abstract:Bayesian inference in wireless networks is based ona number of generic building blocks. Two of these blocks areBayesian graphical models and average consensus, which are

arguably the most important. Using these building blocks relies


14/31

on knowledge from Bayesian statistics, wirelesscommunications, graph theory, and optimization. The aim of thistutorial is to provide an introduction of both tools and applythem to several practical distributed inference problems,

selected from recent technical literature. Our approach ishands-on with many practical problems, which are solved by theattendants. At the same time, we will go over fundamentalresults in terms of applicability and convergence. A final part ofthe tutorial will be devoted to distributed control strategies forwireless networks, with the explicit aim to improve theinference. This part relies on tools from Fisher information andinformation theory.
