“…To evaluate the freshness of status updates, researchers have introduced the concept of the age of information (AoI) [ 1 ], which is defined as the time elapsed since the the generation of the most recent status update. Previous studies [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ] have focused on developing scheduling algorithms that minimize the average AoI across the network in the generate-at-will scenario, which means the generation of status update packets can be controlled. Various low-complexity algorithms were presented in [ 2 ] to minimize the average AoI in the network, demonstrating their proximity to the theoretical lower bound.…”
