(English) As the Internet of Things (IoT) deployment proceeds, the number of radio solutions used in the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) space increases. This well-known process has led to fragmentation in the IoT space, as ...
(English) The most promising solution to reduce carbon emissions due to transportation is migrating from fossil-fuel vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs). In recent years, the decisive shift of drivers to use EVs has been ...
(English) This thesis studies and proposes solutions to some of the most relevant challenges in the Radio Access Network (RAN) management arising from its evolution beyond 5G and towards 6G. The tackled problems are selected ...
(English) Smart community services are reaching nearly every area of our daily life, often requiring private information from their users. The scope of all contributors to these services is to collaboratively share information ...
(English) Initial 5G networks were deployed to satisfy the users with higher data rates. Hence, to reduce the time to market and maximize the value of already deployed infrastructure, such deployments used the Non-Standalone ...
(English) The main objective of this thesis is contributing to IPv6 support over Low Rate Low Power Wireless Networks (LRLPWNs). One family of LRLPWNs is Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs), which includes technologies ...
(Enlish) In the past years, battery electric vehicles have been gaining market share. These vehicles are progressively seen as a viable option by customers of all kind. However, although manufacturers and research institutions ...
(English) Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies have gained significant momentum as wireless solutions for implementing Internet of Things (IoT) applications and services. The unique set of LPWAN features, such ...
(English) Online advertising makes possible most of the freely available online content and services. However, it is far from being mature and there are still controversial topics that need to be addressed. One of these ...
(English) With the development of industry and society, new verticals have emerged such as Industry 4.0, cooperative sensing, and massive IoT. These verticals require network robustness and availability to maintain high ...
(English) This doctoral thesis focuses on the design of strategies (i.e., exact and heuristic-based methods) to optimize the placement and reconfiguration of user plane functions (UPFs) in 5G and beyond networks. These ...
(English) Invoice factoring has been a popular way to provide cash flow for businesses. The primary function of a factoring system is to prevent an invoice from being factored twice. In order to prevent double factoring, ...
(English) A nano-network is a communication network at the nano-scale between nano-devices. Nanodevices face certain challenges in functionalities, because of limitations in their processing capabilities and power management ...
The SDN (Software-Defined Networks) architecture separates the data and the control planes of the networks. It logically centralizes the control of a network in a central point that is an SDN controller, which acts as a ...
5G cellular communication, especially with its hugely available bandwidth provided by millimeter-wave, is a promising technology to fulfill the coming high demand for vast data rates. These networks can support new use ...
5G/6G services and applications, in the context of the eMBB, mMTC and uRLLC network slicing framework, whose network infrastructure requirements may span beyond the coverage area of a single Infrastructure Provider (InP), ...
The explosion in data traffic, the physical resource constraints, and the insufficient financial incentives for deploying 5G networks, stress the need for a paradigm shift in network upgrades. Typically, operators are also ...
Ever-increasing energy consumption, the depletion of non-renewable resources, the climate impact associated with energy generation, and finite energy-production capacity are important concerns worldwide that drive the ...
Older generations of wireless networks, such as 1G and 2G were deployed using leased line, copper or fibre line as backhaul. Later, in 3G and 4G, microwave wireless links have also worked as backhaul links while the ...
This PhD thesis has the characteristic to span over a long time because while working on it, I was working as a research engineer at CTTC with highly demanding development duties. This has delayed the deposit more than I ...
