Transfer Learning for Tilt-Dependent Radio Map Prediction IEEE Trans. Cognit. Commun. Netw. (IF 4.574) Pub Date : 2020-01-08 Claudia Parera; Qi Liao; Ilaria Malanchini; Cristian Tatino; Alessandro E. C. Redondi; Matteo Cesana
Machine learning will play a major role in handling the complexity of future mobile wireless networks by improving network management and orchestration capabilities. Due to the large number of parameters that can be monitored and configured in the network, collecting and processing high volumes of data is often unfeasible or too expensive at network runtime, which calls for taking resource management

A Software Defined Radio Cross-Layer Resource Allocation Approach for Cognitive Radio Networks: From Theory to Practice IEEE Trans. Cognit. Commun. Netw. (IF 4.574) Pub Date : 2020-01-03 Grigorios Kakkavas; Konstantinos Tsitseklis; Vasileios Karyotis; Symeon Papavassiliou
Software Defined Radio (SDR)-enabled cognitive radio network architectures are expected to play an important role in the future 5G networks. Despite the increased research interest, the current implementations are of small-scale and provide limited functionality. In this paper, we contribute towards the alleviation of the limitations in SDR deployments by developing and evaluating a resource allocation
