This article proposes a video quality assessment (VQA) mechanism for next-generation (5G) mobile networks, following the small cell deployment architecture. The proposed method uses the structural similarity (SSIM) index as a reduced reference metric and is suitable for implementation as a virtual network function (VNF) within an IT infrastructure located close to the small cell. It enables the in-service...
With the wide adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) and specifically e-Health applications, the nature of mobile applications, the increased traffic and the increasing number of connected devices are changing the requirements of wireless mobile networking. Addressing such foreseen increase in number of connected mobile devices, our work proposes a new trend of on-demand mobile small-cells with caching...
Recently, enormous growth of mobile data traffic can be load to operator's core network. Offloading traffic is a promising solution to alleviate the load. The 3GPP proposes the offloading solutions such as local IP access (LIPA) and selected IP traffic offload (SIPTO). Based on the LIPA/SIPTO, many relate works provides the offloading procedures and schemes but it doesn't take the network condition...
Dense heterogeneous networks (HetNets) that comprise a number of small cells and their overlay macro cells is viewed as the solution for supporting explosive-growth user traffic in the next decade. In order to reduce the number of handovers in HetNets, the high speed mobiles should attach to the macro cells as much as possible. This paper proposes a Doppler-based Speed Classification (DSC) method...
