In order to achieve higher data rates and more reliable QoS, coordinated multipoint transmission/ reception (CoMP) is raised in 3GPP release 10 and beyond. Cooperative transmission can effectively improve the performance of cell-edge users with the cost of exchange load between service eNodeB and cooperative eNodeB. Previous work of 3GPP release 11 has noticed the modeling of cooperative backhaul...
We propose a novel admission control policy for database queries. Our methodology uses system measurements of CPU utilization and query backlogs to determine interference between queries in execution on the same database server. Query interference may arise due to the concurrent access of hardware and software resources and can affect performance in positive and negative ways. Specifically our admission...
The existing response-time analysis for messages in Controller Area Network (CAN) with CAN controllers facilitating transmission abort requests in transmission buffers does not support mixed messages. The existing analysis assumes that a message is queued for transmission either periodically or sporadically. However, a message can also be queued both periodically and sporadically using a mixed transmission...
The embedded-systems industry is about to make a transition to multi-core platforms. This is a highly risky step as several essential problems are not yet solved. In particular, the performance analysis problem has no viable solution for the existing multi-core designs. The main culprit is the interference on shared resources. Several alternative approaches both in architecture and system design and...
Finding suitable multi-hop routing paths for video streaming remains a challenging issue for 802.11 based multihop wireless networks. In this paper, we present an analytical approach that takes cross-layer factors into account and propose a new routing metric based on optimizing a queueing model that considers local data transmission rates, interference and packet drop rates. Simulation results using...
Driven by the increasing demand for high speed communication of the in-vehicle automotive systems, car manufacturers and suppliers have developed the FlexRay communication protocol. Being dedicated to safety and time-critical applications, the availability of appropriate timing analysis methods for the prediction of the FlexRay timing behaviour is essential. Consequently, several analysis solutions...
This work considers the scheduling problem for the packets with strict maximum tolerable delay (deadline) constraint. We discuss a multiuser scheduling scheme which schedules the users based on their instantaneous channel conditions, packet deadline and backlog of the buffered packets. The scheme is analyzed in large system limit for the single and multicell cases. The aim is to minimize the system...
Filterbank Multicarrier (FBMC) modulation is a potential candidate for cognitive radio (CR) wireless networks due to its high spectrum efficiency and low interference among neighboring bands. Within the CR network it is important that the base station (BS) can localize the mobile station (MS) to better distribute radio resources. While most research has focused on interference within the FBMC network,...
There is little understanding about how network applications can benefit from mathematical/heuristic optimization techniques, such as cross-layer design. We propose CLASS, a component-based framework for evaluating and comparing network optimization techniques, such as cross-layer design. CLASS uniquely integrates network optimization with high-fidelity simulation to provide an “optimize-and-verify”...
The majority of research into schedulability analysis for CAN is based on the assumption that the highest priority message ready for transmission at each node on the network will be entered into arbitration on the bus. In practice; however, some CAN device drivers and communications stacks implement queuing policies that are not strictly priority-based, invalidating this assumption. In this paper,...
This paper proposes a throughput-aware routing algorithm for enhancing throughput and decreasing end-toend delay in industrial cognitive radio sensor networks (ICRSNs). In ICRSNs, the throughput is downgraded by interference from primary networks; consequently, end to end delay is increased. The proposed routing algorithm is targeted at large-scale networks where data are forwarded through different...
An accurate channel estimation is crucial for the novel time domain synchronous orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) scheme in which pseudo noise (PN) sequences serve as both guard intervals (GI) for OFDM data symbols and training sequences for synchronization/channel estimation. This paper studies the channel estimation method based on the cross-correlation of PN sequences. A theoretical...
Wireless multimedia applications are major services of next generation wireless networks. This paper is one of the first to study the efficient utilization of network resources for increasing the number of concurrent multimedia flows when a channel becomes saturated. We theoretically study the flow scheduling policy with the motivation of ameliorating the trade-off between limited channel resources...
Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) transmission schemes can provide large spectral efficiency gains in cellular networks. Because of the coordination among neighbor basestations, the planning interval for resource allocation with CoMP is longer than for uncoordinated local transmission modes. Especially for bursty data traffic, this planning interval might be too long to keep up with changes in offered...
Cooperative communication, which utilizes neighboring nodes to relay the overhearing information, has been employed as an effective technique to deal with the channel fading and to improve the network performances. And network coding, which combines several packets together for transmission, is very helpful to reduce the redundancy at the network and to increase the overall throughput. Introducing...
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular network is considered to be a promising resource reuse technique, and it is basically developed for lots of local services. Considering the differences of the quality of services (QoS) between cellular and D2D users, the resource allocation scheme for D2D should flexibly allocate resource for D2D, rather than limiting one D2D user to share...
This paper presents the analysis on communication range and interference range of the IEEE 802.15.4g Smart Utility Networks (SUN). Firstly, error performance analysis corresponding to different propagation environments based on realistic measurement is conducted. Secondly, the effective communication range of SUN devices in these propagation channels are presented and discussed. Thirdly, in the presence...
Load Balancing is typically used in cellular wireless networks in the frequency domain to balance paging, access, and traffic load across the available bandwidth. In this paper we extend the concept of Load Balancing to the Spatial domain. We develop two approaches — Network Load Balancing and Single-Carrier MultiLink — for Spatial Load Balancing. While these techniques are applicable to both cellular...
LTE (Long Term Evolution) has been standardized in 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) to provide higher data throughput as well as lower latency for various IP based services including web browsing, VoIP (Voice over IP), video streaming and so on. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of TCP and UDP when handover is executed in an LTE system. The performance is degraded due to the interference...
Recently, Delay-Tolerant Space-Time Codes (DT-STCs) have been designed for cooperative communications. They are optimal in synchronous transmission and preserve their full-diversity order for arbitrary delays in asynchronous case. In this paper, we investigate these DT-STCs in femtocell networks where Femtocell Access Points can assist Macrocell Base Stations to transmit data information to users...
