In order to manage Quality of Service (QoS) and energy efficiency in the optical access network, an online Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) algorithm with adaptive sleep cycle is presented. This DBA algorithm has the ability to allocate an additional bandwidth to the end user within a single sleep cycle whose duration changes depending on the current buffers occupancy. The purpose of this DBA algorithm...
Today, triple play services may be regarded as required services in telecommunication sector. In the access network, Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) is considered as one of the best solutions to provision triple-play-services. In EPON, the Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) algorithm plays a key role to meet the Quality-of-Service (QoS) requirements. Therefore, in this paper, we conduct the...
Efficient and optimized data transfer in broadband is the anchor point of digital economy in modern era. One the most challenging issues for providing different services in broadband is the bandwidth allocation. That is a real-time multi dimensional problem solving requiring to satisfy QOS and SLA constraints at the same time. In this paper, we present a real-time adaptive framework for the problem...
Cognitive networks (CN) introduce an adaptable architecture that enables efficient sharing of transmission resources among heterogeneous networks. While quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning is always an important issue, the channel switching frequency at the secondary networks has a clear impact on the QoS performance of a CN. A secondary network returns a borrowed channel when demanded by the primary...
In this paper we propose a utility-based scheduling mechanism for mixed traffic in wireless networks to mitigate the problem that current scheduling algorithms cannot have a good performance in mixed traffic. The proposed algorithm called UBSA (Utility-Based Scheduling Algorithm) works in wired-wireless hybrid networks. Packets of diverse QoS (Quality of Service) classes are allocated to different...
Proper admission control in cognitive radio networks is critical in providing QoS guarantees to secondary unlicensed users. In this paper, we study the admission control and channel allocation problem in overlay cognitive radio networks under the maximum cumulative delay constraint. We formulate it as a Markov decision process problem, and then solve it by transforming the original formulation into...
TCP, the facto standard used in today's Internet, has been found to perform poorly in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). This is exacerbated by contention with increasing UDP-based high priority multimedia traffic and the class differentiation introduced in current QoS protocols, which results into TCP starvation and increased spurious timeouts. In this paper, we propose a cross-layer TCP enhancement...
The next-generation packet-based wireless cellular network will provide real-time services for delay-sensitive applications. To make the next-generation cellular network successful, it is critical that the network utilizes the resource efficiently while satisfying quality of service (QoS) requirements of realtime users. In this paper, we consider the problem of power control and dynamic channel allocation...
Since the emergence of Ethernet PONs (EPONs) several mechanisms have been proposed aiming to enhance the performance of traffic multiplexing and upstream channel arbitration. Efficient resource utilization should feature several properties including among others support for multiple service classes, Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) for services with varying (in time) capacity demand and bounded...
We propose and analyze a handoff scheme with channel borrowing in integrated wireless mobile networks. Channels in each cell are divided into two parts and pre-allocated to real-time and non-real-time services. Each type of service is allowed to borrow channels from the other under certain conditions. A non-real-time service call can borrow an unused channel assigned to real-time service but it can...
