Virtual Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) is a promising uplink technology that can meet the throughput demand of Long-Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) systems. However, the complexity of scheduling virtual MIMO is a challenge; existing virtual MIMO is therefore limited to best effort applications. We investigate the resource allocation and scheduling problem in a heterogeneous virtual MIMO system...
Networked control systems typically involve multiple subsystems which share the communication network. In this system setting, besides the optimization of the quality of control of the considered networked control system, the efficient utilization of the communication resources contributes to part of the overall control objective. By realizing the fact that the packet delay variation can be roughly...
We consider the impacts of channel fading on the quality of service (QoS) performance of the IEEE 802.11 system. Traditional 2-D Markov chain models, while suitable for throughput analysis, are unable to capture the QoS performance due to the lack of a proper queueing model. We present a 3-D Markov chain queueing model that incorporates channel fading effects and solve the Markov chain efficiently...
In fire fighting having prompt and reliable tracking and communication in case of emergency is of paramount importance. We developed an integrated positioning, sensing and communication platform for tracking first responders in urban fire fighting. A Quality of Service (QoS) enabled TDMA MAC (QT-MAC) was designed to provide a low latency and high reliability service for critical data transfer, as...
Quality of Service (QoS) and queue management are important issues for IEEE 802.11 systems. However, existing 2-dimensional (2-D) Markov chain models of 802.11 systems are unable to capture the complete QoS performance and queueing behavior due to the lack of an adequate finite buffer model. We present a 3-dimensional (3-D) Markov chain that integrates the 802.11 system contention resolution and queueing...
