“…Therefore, to maximize the performance from a global perspective, the cross-layer optimization framework for cooperative radio resource management (RRM) is essential for future C-RANs. The concept of cross-layer optimization is not new [105], and solving this kind of optimization problems is known to be computationally complex. However, with the cloud-computing enabled C-RANs, the time has come to consider the use of advanced cooperative signal processing techniques and efficient cooperative RRM algorithms for network provision.…”

Abstract-As a promising paradigm to reduce both capital and operating expenditures, the cloud radio access network (C-RAN) has been shown to provide high spectral efficiency and energy efficiency. Motivated by its significant theoretical performance gains and potential advantages, C-RANs have been advocated by both the industry and research community. This paper comprehensively surveys the recent advances of C-RANs, including system architectures, key techniques, and open issues. The system architectures with different functional splits and the corresponding characteristics are comprehensively summarized and discussed. The state-of-the-art key techniques in C-RANs are classified as: the fronthaul compression, large-scale collaborative processing, and channel estimation in the physical layer; and the radio resource allocation and optimization in the upper layer. Additionally, given the extensiveness of the research area, open issues and challenges are presented to spur future investigations, in which the involvement of edge cache, big data mining, socialaware device-to-device, cognitive radio, software defined network, and physical layer security for C-RANs are discussed, and the progress of testbed development and trial test are introduced as well.

“…This approach reduces the typical overhead from employing one hop overlay systems as routing updates from the underlay are forwarded to the overlay which in turn can scale down its own update mechanisms. OnehopMANET follows the manager method of cross-layering [25] to optimize the network layer's routing information transfer. A notification board is used as a vertical plane managing the information sharing between the application and the network layers.…”

When used together, Peer-to-Peer overlays and MANET complement each other well. While MANET provides wireless connectivity without depending on any pre-existing infrastructure, P2P overlays provide data storage/retrieval functionality. However, both systems face common challenges: maintaining connectivity in dynamic and decentralized networks. In this paper we evaluate the performance of OnehopMANET[1] as a structured P2P over MANET system that uses cross-layering with a proactive underlay. We compare the performance of OnehopMANET with two recent structured P2P over MANET systems (MA-SP2P and E-SP2P) that use the same underlay protocol (OLSR) and that have been shown to outperform other proposals. Through simulation we show that OnehopMANET achieves a better performance in terms of file discovery delay, lookup fail rate and total traffic load for all the simulated scenarios.
