This paper investigates the energy harvesting fading multiple-access channels, where the transmitters harvest random amounts of energy from the environment and the data transmissions are subject to statistical quality of service (QoS) constraints in the form of limitations on the buffer overflow probability. With the assumption that the channel state information (CSI) and harvested energy in all time...
To satisfy various quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of different services in future fifth generation wireless networks, wireless virtualized network (WVN) architectures have been proposed to concurrently fulfill diversified service demands via network slicing technologies. Considering the dynamic characteristics of wireless channels and user traffic, the resource allocation problem in a WVN with...
Due to the open access nature of wireless communication environment, physical layer security has brought increasingly high attention in recent years, attempting to protect the confidential communication away from eavesdroppers. In contrast to the current secrecy designs, which generally exploit the spatial Degree-of-Freedom (DoF) (e.g. MIMO and cooperative relay approaches) or the temporal DoF (e...
Fog Radio Access Network(F-RAN) is a promising technique for the fifth generation mobile communication system to provide high spectral and energy efficiency. In comparison with Cloud Radio Access Network, the Radio Units in F-RAN are equipped with local caches, which store popular content. In this paper, we investigate joint cooperative beamforming and radio units (RUs) operation in F-RAN system to...
This paper addresses the challenging problem of guaranteeing quality-of-service (QoS) requirements associated with parallel running queries in distributed stream processing engines. In such platforms, the real-time processing of streaming data often requires executing a set of user-defined queries over continues data flows. However, previous studies showed that guaranteeing QoS enforcement (such as...
Growing demands for mobile services in recent years has extraordinary increased the number of cellular operators and consequently the portion of energy that is consumed by cellular networks. Hence, green cellular network has been introduced, which suggests the use of energy optimization methods in cellular networks. One of the solutions to optimize the energy consumption of cellular networks is to...
In cellular mobile wireless networks, nonlinear channel fading is always a critical factor which will scientifically deteriorate the Quality of Service (QoS) for the users. However, it is difficult to describe the nonlinear channel fading by precise mathematical model because of its complexity. So, the control of wireless networks becomes an especial tough work. In this paper, a power and rate control...
The emerging 5G networks will enable control-oriented applications where sensors, actuators, processors and controllers are geographically distributed and wirelessly connected. One major challenge of networked control systems (NCSs) is how to guarantee the stability of all control loops in the presence of communication delay. Addressing this problem, the control community generally focuses on designing...
Existing telemedicine systems that rely on single telecommunication network are unable to guarantee the user is always connected to healthcare professionals anywhere and anytime. The use of heterogeneous wireless networks can overcome this issue. However, the existing handover schemes are not efficient enough for telemedicine application. This is because the preference of telemedicine user might change...
Telemedicine systems are becoming prevalent in today's healthcare scenarios, especially in India where a large portion of the population resides in remote and rural regions where availability of specialty healthcare is scant. Many such telemedicine system implementations can be found in the existing literature. Since critical data are being transmitted over these networks, the reliability of these...
The interference attack or better known as jamming attacks are very easy to implement affecting the service of any wireless communication system given the vulnerability of data sent to the user. This attack by denying the normal operation of the service detracts from the purpose of these systems. In general, a jamming attack is difficult to detect given the little experimental data provided by the...
To mitigate performance anomalies due to different transmission rates and to improve throughput performance in ad-hoc networks, a previous work has proposed a new method called user cooperative mobility. It also showed that the method achieved good improvement when users appropriately move. However, it only employed theoretical evaluation which does not include detailed behavior such as capture effect...
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...
Penetration of multimedia communications with mobile Wi-Fi and tethering requires wireless LANs (WLANs) to guarantee a specific bandwidth in densely deployed WLANs. IEEE802.11e (HCCA) with 802.11aa could use inefficiently radio frequency as well as fail to provide each WLAN with enough CFP period in which sending opportunity of a terminal is guaranteed. To guarantee a specific bandwidth even in densely...
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...
In recent years, the wireless body area network (WBAN) has become a heated topic in research, but its quality of service (QoS) has not received enough attention. The two operation modes of IEEE802.15.4 are analyzed, and the slotted CSMA/CA mechanism is found more suitable for the WBAN. With the simulation tool OPNET the network delays are proved to change in accordance with the parameter values of...
This paper investigates the multi-broker based network control and management paradigm for realizing scalable and cost-effective service provisioning in multi-domain software-defined optical networks. Experimental results verify the feasibility of the proposal and demonstrate ∼ 7.6× blocking reduction comparing with the conventional single-broker based solution.
Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) techniques are proposed as solutions to alleviate the negative impact of interference on system performance, while enhancing the provided Quality of Service (QoS). Typically, the available bandwidth is divided into inner and edge sub-bands. Users are also classified into interior and edge users. The available resources in each zone are exclusively allocated...
The distinguishing feature of the Fog Computing (FC) paradigm is that FC spreads communication and computing resources over the wireless access network, so as to provide resource augmentation to resource and energy-limited wireless (possibly mobile) devices. Since FC would lead to substantial reductions in energy consumption and access latency, it will play a key role in the realization of the Fog...
Software Defined Wireless Sensor Network (SDWSN) is realised by infusing Software Defined Network (SDN) model in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), Reason for that is to overcome the challenges of WSN. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning play an important role in our society, give rise to systems that can manage themselves. WSNs have been used in various industrial applications, where reliability...
