Distributed Spectrum Access with Spatial Reuse [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 2013
Efficient distributed spectrum sharing mechanism is crucial for improving the spectrum utilization. The spatial aspect of spectrum sharing, however, is less understood than many other aspects. In this paper, we generalize a recently proposed spatial congestion game framework to design efficient distributed spectrum access mechanisms with spatial reuse.

A spatial data model for urban spatial–temporal accessibility analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geographical Systems, 2020
Time geography represents the uncertainty of the space-time position of moving objects through two basic structures, the space-time path and space-time prism, which are subject to the speed allowed in the travel environment. Thus, any attempt at a quantitative time-geographic analysis must consider the actual velocity with respect to space.
