Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a particular class of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that utilizes moving cars as nodes to establish wireless communications and exchange information between them without the need of infrastructure. VANET is a promising technology used to provide safety, efficiency, and comfort to the road users. Routing protocol has become one of the most challenging tasks for VANET...
Opportunistic communications through wireless ad-hoc mesh networks have been thoroughly studied in the context of military infrastructureless deployments, sensor networks and even human-centered pervasive networking. However, due to the lack of a model that accurately computes the probability distribution of the delay, we usually content ourselves with the mean values. Such an approach can limit both...
Due to the limitation of frequency resources, Long Term Evolution(LTE) is usually applied for the train-ground communication applications of Communication(CBTC) service, Wireless Local Network (WLAN) is used for the train ground applications of Passenger Information System (PIS) service and Closed Circuit Television(CCTV) service. Train ground communication systems for PIS and CCTV applications are...
QoS of applications in an edge node of mobile edge computing (MEC) could degrade due to congestion of wireless access or short of mobile edge computing resource. In order to improve QoS such as TCP throughput, we propose a VM migration method, which takes a VM from congested node to another node in a mobile edge. Users can choose a far but less-congested node, instead of a near but congested node...
The ability to provide a high Quality of Service is a crucial aspect in the acceptance and widespread dispersion of the Industrial Internet of Things and it has a key role to enhance the end user experience. The emerging fog cloud computing architectural concept aims to diminish the experienced latency while simultaneously providing a seemingly unlimited quantity of computational power by moving computations...
BBR is a recently proposed congestion control. Instead of using packet loss as congestion signal, like many currently used congestion controls, it uses an estimate of the available bottleneck link bandwidth to determine its sending rate. BBR tries to provide high link utilization while avoiding to create queues in bottleneck buffers. The original publication of BBR shows that it can deliver superior...
Recently, 5G systems started to explore the usage of mmWave bands both for access and backhaul. Cellular systems operating at such frequencies would achieve a significantly higher capacity than current systems due to the large frequency block available. Due to the propagation characteristics, highly directional mmWave links may frequently switch between Line-of-sight, Non Line-of-sight and outage...
Network performance is one of the most important entities in today’s long-distance networks. TCP congestion control mechanisms play an important role in these networks. Most of the current TCP congestion control mechanisms which are also known as TCP variants, detect congestion and slow down the packets transmission to avoid further congestion in the network. In this paper, three classes...
Multilayer Clustered Designing Algorithm is exploited to present MCDA - Hot Spot algorithm; a technique to increase the network throughput by alleviating the impact of hotspot issue on network lifetime. The network nodes in the hot spot region are in a flat layer form in contrast to rest of the network nodes that are grouped into clusters. This design substantially helps in achieving goal above. This...
The network infrastructures have been rapidly upgraded in many high-performance networks (HPNs). However, such infrastructure investment has not led to corresponding performance improvement in big data transfer, especially at the application layer, largely due to the complexity of optimizing transport control on end hosts. We design and implement ProbData, a PRofiling Optimization Based DAta Transfer...
We investigate adaptive transmission for tactical packet radio networks in which a source uses fountain coding to multicast a file to a number of destinations over time-varying links. We examine two strategies from the literature for packet-by-packet adaptation of the modulation and channel code. The maximum data-recovery rate philosophy attempts to maximize the throughput for each transmitted packet...
Joint pushing and proactive caching holds the promise of significantly increasing the throughput and decreasing the latency of content-centric wireless networks. In this work, we import the pushing and caching mechanism into a traditional packet-oriented network for decreasing the average queueing delay. Since the decreasing relies on extra costs paid for the pushing-caching mechanism, such as the...
Dual Connectivity(DC) is one of the key technologies standardized in Release 12 of the 3GPP specifications for the Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. It attempts to increase the per-user throughput by allowing the user equipment (UE) to maintain connections with the MeNB (master eNB) and SeNB (secondary eNB) simultaneously, which are inter-connected via non-ideal backhaul. In this paper, we focus...
ECN thresholds have limited operational range and very strict scope. Lower thresholds exacerbate the queue underflow while higher thresholds increase the queueing delays. In this paper, an Adaptive ECN (A-ECN) marking scheme is proposed to enhance the performance of ECN. A-ECN can adaptively adjust ECN marking thresholds in different scenarios to achieve good generality. Therefore, network operators...
TCP LoLa is a new delay-based congestion control that supports both, low queuing delay and high network utilization in high speed wide-area networks. This is particularly useful for traffic mixes consisting of bandwidth demanding and delay sensitive flows (e.g., long file transfer and interactive "web 2.0" traffic). TCP LoLa keeps the queuing delay at the bottleneck link low around a fixed...
Interactive video streaming requires very low latency and high throughput. Traditional latency based congestion control algorithm performs poorly in fairness. This results in very poor video quality to adaptive video streaming. Software defined networks (SDN) enables us to solve the problem by designing a network controller in the routers. This paper presents a SDN-centric TCP where sending rate of...
In a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), there are a large number of nodes whose power supply and computational capability are limited. The nodes in a wireless sensor network can be fixed or move randomly. Thus in these networks, to forward a data packet from one node to another needs to use specific strategies with very different characteristics. Accordingly the data forwarding strategy among nodes plays...
Recently, many applications for co-operative Intelligent Transportation System (C-ITS) using wireless vehicle communication technology such as DSRC have been developed to improve traffic problems and provide user convenience. Above all, broadcast message sets such as CAM and DENM are very useful for vehicle safety. However, V2X systems must design system parameters in highly congested traffic conditions,...
The LTE system that traditionally uses the licensed band have added the new technology, licensed assisted access (LAA), that enables to use 5 GHz unlicensed band with existing licensed band. Coexistence with Wi-Fi is major part of the LAA technology and regulations relating to coexistence has been revised after LAA technology emerged in Europe. Channel occupancy time (COT) is a critical parameter...
In this paper, we propose a cross-layer design framework for transmitting Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP) traffic over cognitive cooperative networks, which considers the energy efficient transmissions for different delay-aware packets. The adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) is used in the cooperative transmission system. The queueing process is considered in the buffer aided relay and source...
