Long Term Evolution (LTE) and LTE-Advanced are traditionally defined for human to human (H2H) communication, they are excellent candidates as a communication technologies in the smart grid environment. The 3GPP standard recently adopted the use of LT E to support low powered sensor devices which they classify as machine type communication (MTC). In this work we evaluated the performance of widely...
The core concept of Smart Grid (SG) is to enhance the level of intelligent management for power grid by the application of modern information, communication and other advanced technologies. With wide coverage, high reliability and large capacity, the Long-Term-Evolution (LTE) network is widely used in the SG wireless communication. However, SG is different from traditional cellular networks. Many...
This paper proposes a new scheduling scheme which based on user perception, Channel- and QoS-Aware (known as E-MQS scheduler) for real-time traffics in LTE downlink direction. The proposed scheduling scheme is based on the extension of the E-model and the consideration of Maximum Queue Size (MQS) as a an essential factor for the metric. The proposed scheduling scheme is evaluated in LTE heterogeneous...
In this paper we have studied downlink packet scheduling algorithms proposed for LTE cellular networks. The study emphasize on six most promising scheduling algorithms such as: FLS, EXP rule, LOG rule, PF, MLWDF, EXP/PF.
The smart grid is a modern electricity grid that uses wireless technologies to control and supervise the substation and the electricity generation and consumption sides. Several wireless technologies can be used for smart grid communication such as Long-Term evolution (LTE) and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX). However, LTE is the most compatible network for the smart grid because...
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) has been adopted in the newest fifth generation radio networks (5G) such as Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs) and Heterogeneous Cloud Radio Access Networks (H-CRANs). Therefore, new scheduling strategies should be projected. In 5G radio networks, restricted requirements must be considered to implement an effective service to users such as throughput,...
Nowadays, the current trend is to integrate WiFi with Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks in order to meet the growing demand for huge amounts of data traffic and provide ubiquitous coverage. Seamless mobility between heterogeneous networks with the required Quality of Services (QoS) provisioning for Mobile Terminals (MTs) is one of the most challenging issues while considering LTE-WiFi integration...
The QoS (Quality of Service) requirements of real time (RT) applications are within the most important challenges that LTE (Long Term Evolution) must provide. However, due to the limited radio resources, it is important to take advantage of these resources efficiently. User traffic can be classified into two main classes which are RT (Real Time) and NRT traffic. To respond to RTs QoS requirements,...
In this paper, a new call admission control scheme is proposed for Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. The calls are classified into new and handoff calls (HCs and NCs). The call admission control scheme gives the priority of handoff call in admission, without totally neglecting new calls. The proposed scheme guarantees quality of service and prevents network congestion. Simulation results show that...
In this paper we introduce and asses the performance of a new scheduling algorithm based on Earliest Due Date (EDD) mechanism. Our proposed scheduling algorithm enhances the performance of Real-Time (RT) flows such as video and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) in Long Term Evolution (LTE) cellular networks especially in downlink. The proposed scheduling scheme provides the lowest Packet Loss Ratio...
In 5G, heterogeneous broadband networks will emerge to a common set of objectives to offer the end users higher capacity, robustness, security, QoS, and more in a unified and converged manner. In order to provide end-to-end QoS support to application services over the heterogeneous networks, a common QoS framework is proposed in this paper. The framework consists of a two-level scheduling scheme:...
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is rapidly flourishing in the global market due to its speed, coverage, relative ease of deployment, and consistency. However, Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning scheme is not fully defined for LTE, and it is left open for researchers to explore. In this paper, we propose a QoS provisioning technique for LTE. This technique involves a two-level scheduling scheme, consisting...
In recent decades, staggering number of mobile applications have been developed in the wireless technology arena. The Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) and the Long Term Evolution (LTE) have become the most common wireless technologies used for those applications. Mobile applications are classified into Real-Time (RT) and Non Real-Time (NRT). The growth in the number of users burdens the network with more...

With the design of data communications in mind, 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE) mobile network is now considered as the most promising technology for Internet of EveryThings (IoE). The IoE incorporates four pillars: people, process, data, and things. The pillars interact in a way that establishes three main connections in the IoE environment: people communicate with people (P2P), machines communicate...
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is a broadband wireless technology that promises to high throughput. In order to simultaneously support several mobile users with real time and non-real time applications, the resource management and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements of delay-sensitive traffic should be carefully aware. In this paper, The Delay-Aware with Resource Block Management Scheduling Algorithm...
This paper proposes a new cross-layer based packet scheduling scheme for multimedia traffic in Long Term Evolution (LTE)/LTE Advanced (LTE-A) network.
