Efficient Virtual Machine (VM) placement is a critical challenge in optimizing resource utilization in cloud data centers. This paper explores both exact and approximate methods to address this problem. We begin by presenting an exact solution based...
The proliferation of drones in civilian environments has raised growing concerns about their misuse, highlighting the need to develop efficient detection systems to protect public and private spaces. This article presents a hybrid approach for UAV de...
The vision of the sixth generation of communication systems, commonly known as 6G, entails a connected world that provides ubiquitous connectivity and fosters the digital transformation of society. As the number of devices, services, and users contin...
This paper presents a unified performance metric for evaluating the chronological wild geese optimization (CWGO) algorithm in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The metric combines key performance factors—energy consumption, delay, distance, and...
Digital terrestrial television is now implemented in many countries worldwide and is now mature. Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial, second generation (DVB-T2) is the European standard adopted or deployed by European and African countries which u...
This paper addresses the problem of side lobe interference in 5G networks by proposing a unique collaborative beamforming strategy based on Deep Q-Network (DQN) reinforcement learning. Our method, which operates in the sub-6 GHz band, maximizes beam...
This research aims to evaluate the reliability indices of a public address system (PAS) through the Markovian approach. Many organizations and businesses use this system to address or broadcast a message or pass on important information to the huge g...
In the past few years, one of the largest industries in the world, the agriculture sector, has faced many challenges, such as climate change and the depletion of limited natural resources. Smart Agriculture, based on IoT, is considered a transformati...
The intense diversity of the Next-Generation Networking environments like 6G and the forthcoming deployment of immersive applications with varied user-specific requirements transform the efficient allocation of resources into a real challenge. Tradit...
This paper aims to provide a general review of the fundamental ideas, varieties, methods, and experimental research of the most advanced frequency selective surfaces available today. Frequency-selective surfaces are periodic structures engineered to...
This work presents an in-depth evaluation of the telecommunications landscape in Mexico from 2015 to 2023. The study’s primary focus is on the disparities in broadband access, telecommunications infrastructure, and digital inclusion across vari...
This study presents a novel approach to enhancing the design and performance of OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) networks, with a particular focus on WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) for Best Effort (BE) se...
Technological developments within the maritime sector are resulting in rapid progress that will see the commercial use of autonomous vessels, known as Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASSs). Such ships are equipped with a range of advanced technol...
Massive MIMO deployments have been traditionally based on dedicated links in the front-haul, i.e., between the central processing units and the Access Points (APs). Recently, cell-free massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems based on se...
Nowadays, Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are widely deployed in communication areas due to their ease of implementation, dynamic self-organization, and cost-effectiveness. The design of routing protocols is critical for ensuring the performance and re...
Airtime fairness has emerged as a key approach to enhancing wireless throughput performance. However, existing research often overlooks the precise calculation of airtime, particularly in relation to TCP acknowledgments. This paper introduces a novel...
This paper presents the latest developments regarding the single-feed Quality Wideband Linear (QWL) wire array antenna, known for its broadband and high-gain electromagnetic characteristics and robust design. A systematic review of recent advances in...
Users are usually required to share several types of data, including their personal data, as different providers strive to offer high-quality services that are often tailored to end-users’ preferences. However, when it comes to personalizing se...
This paper proposes the GD (Geometric Distribution) algorithm, a novel approach to enhance the default Adaptive Data Rate (ADR) mechanism in the Long-Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN). By leveraging the Probability Mass Function (PMF) of the GD model...
