The incorporation of user-assisted cooperative relaying into beamspace massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system can extend the coverage area and improve the spectral and energy efficiency for millimeter wave (mmWave) communications when a dynamic cluster of mobile user terminals (MUTs) is formed within a beam. We propose threshold-based user-assisted cooperative relaying into a beamspace mMIMO NOMA system in a downlink scenario. Specifically, the intermediate MUTs between the next-generation base station (gNB) and the cell-edge MUT become relaying MUTs after the successful decoding of the signal of the cell-edge MUT only when they meet the predetermined signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) threshold. A zero forcing (ZF) precoder and iterative power allocation are used to minimize both inter- and intra-beam interferences to maximize the system sum rate. We then evaluate the performance of this system in a delay-intolerant cell-edge MUT scenario. Moreover, the outage probability of the cell-edge MUT of the proposed scheme is investigated and an analytic expression is derived. Simulation results confirm that the proposed threshold-based user-assisted cooperative relaying beamspace mMIMO NOMA system outperforms the user-assisted cooperative relaying in beamspace mMIMO NOMA, beamspace MIMO-NOMA, and beamspace MIMO orthogonal multiple access (OMA) systems in terms of spectrum efficiency, energy efficiency, and outage probability.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of electrical devices that are connected to the Internet wirelessly. This group of devices generates a large amount of data with information about users, which makes the whole system sensitive and prone to malicious attacks eventually. The rapidly growing IoT-connected devices under a centralized ML system could threaten data privacy. The popular centralized machine learning (ML)-assisted approaches are difficult to apply due to their requirement of enormous amounts of data in a central entity. Owing to the growing distribution of data over numerous networks of connected devices, decentralized ML solutions are needed. In this paper, we propose a Federated Learning (FL) method for detecting unwanted intrusions to guarantee the protection of IoT networks. This method ensures privacy and security by federated training of local IoT device data. Local IoT clients share only parameter updates with a central global server, which aggregates them and distributes an improved detection algorithm. After each round of FL training, each of the IoT clients receives an updated model from the global server and trains their local dataset, where IoT devices can keep their own privacy intact while optimizing the overall model. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed method, we conducted exhaustive experiments on a new dataset named Edge-IIoTset. The performance evaluation demonstrates the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed intrusion detection model by achieving an accuracy (92.49%) close to that offered by the conventional centralized ML models’ accuracy (93.92%) using the FL method.
