This book was released on 2011 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth in wireless communication systems implies the exchange of large amounts of heterogeneous information using limited radio resources. Adaptive transmission power and rate control are two key aspects in optimum radio resource sharing with the potential to enhance performance. Adaptive algorithms are vital features of radio resource management in 4th generation (4G) communication systems and succeeding technologies as well as non-cellular systems. In this thesis novel adaptive scheduling and resource allocation techniques are developed in the context of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA). In this development transmitter and Quality of Service (QoS) constraints are imposed so as to maintain communication cost effectiveness and quality. -- This thesis makes several contributions. First, in the proposed scheduling and resource allocation method, system throughput, QoS constraints, and scheduling fairness are jointly integrated into a framework. This framework dynamically performs radio resource-allocation for multiple users, and effectively chooses optimal system parameters such as power and modulation rate to adapt to the varying channel quality of each resource block. In such systems, frequency-time resources are dynamically shared between users to enhance overall spectral efficiency. -- Second, the problem of maximizing the sum rate of two interfering users, while limiting the received interference at each user, in an OFDMA-based system operating in downlink is considered. In a cooperative two cell scenario, for each particular user (located in the edge of cooperative cell and within area common with neighboring cell), it is possible to incorporate the dominant interference effects of the neighboring cells within the received noise level.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information flow in a telecommunication network is accomplished through the interaction of mechanisms at various design layers with the end goal of supporting the information exchange needs of the applications. In wireless networks in particular, the different layers interact in a nontrivial manner in order to support information transfer. In this text we will present abstract models that capture the cross-layer interaction from the physical to transport layer in wireless network architectures including cellular, ad-hoc and sensor networks as well as hybrid wireless-wireline. The model allows for arbitrary network topologies as well as traffic forwarding modes, including datagrams and virtual circuits. Furthermore the time varying nature of a wireless network, due either to fading channels or to changing connectivity due to mobility, is adequately captured in our model to allow for state dependent network control policies. Quantitative performance measures that capture the quality of service requirements in these systems depending on the supported applications are discussed, including throughput maximization, energy consumption minimization, rate utility function maximization as well as general performance functionals. Cross-layer control algorithms with optimal or suboptimal performance with respect to the above measures are presented and analyzed. A detailed exposition of the related analysis and design techniques is provided.

This book was released on 2010-07-28 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-Layer Resource Allocation in Wireless Communications offers practical techniques and models for the design and optimisation of cross-layer resource allocation – one of the hottest topics in wireless communications. Resource allocation in wireless networks is traditionally approached either through information theory or communications networks. To break down the barriers between these distinct approaches, this book bridges the physical and network layers by providing cross-layer resource allocation techniques, models, and methodologies. Its unique approach allows optimisation of network resources and will enable engineers to improve signal quality, enhance network and spectrum utilization, increase throughput, and solve the problem of shadowing. Topics covered include different views of spectral efficiency, the role of spatial diversity, of delay in resource allocation, and possible extensions to OFDMA systems. This will be an ideal reference on cross-layer resource allocation between the PHY and MAC layers for R&D and network design engineers and researchers in universities dealing with sensor networks and cognitive systems. Gives a full description of the characteristics of the PHY layer that promote efficient resource allocation strategies Gives special emphasis on cross-layer design for spatial diversity schemes Provides a framework for interaction between the PHY and MAC layers, their parameters of performance and their relationship Presents resource allocation as a cross-layer design based on an optimization of MAC layer parameters with an accurate model of the PHY layer

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Next generation wireless and mobile communication systems are rapidly evolving to satisfy the demands of various network users. Due to the great success and enormous impact of IP networks, high-speed transmission is now possible for both indoor and outdoor wireless systems, internet access and web browsing have become the ruling paradigm for next generation system. It is envisioned that new generation wireless networks and hand-held terminals will support a wide variety of multimedia services such as multimedia web browsing, video and news on demand, mobile office system, stock market information, and so on, to mobile users anywhere, anytime in an uninterrupted and seamless way with low-powered handsets. The characteristics of wireless links, as well as the desire to maintain connectivity while on the move, offer significant challenges to provisioning quality of service and the related performance is of central interest. Since the resources (such as time, frequency and code) in the wireless segments of such networks are very limited, over-dimensioning the network resource is equivalent to poor capital investment, while congestion at busy hours could mean lost calls and lost revenues. It is therefore critical for wireless network designers to utilise these resources efficiently and effectively. In response to the above demand for next generation wireless and mobile communication systems, this book aims at providing a timely and concise reference of the current activities and findings in the relevant technical fields. The primary goal is to address the key technical issues pertaining to the integrated new systems and present novel technical contributions. The book contains 14 invited chapters from prominent researchers working in this area around the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adaptive techniques play a key role in modern wireless communication systems. The concept of adaptation is emphasized in the Adaptation in Wireless Communications Series through a unified framework across all layers of the wireless protocol stack ranging from the physical layer to the application layer, and from cellular systems to next-generation wireless networks. Adaptation and Cross Layer Design in Wireless Networks is devoted to adaptation in the data link layer, network layer, and application layer. The book presents state-of-the-art adaptation techniques and methodologies, including cross-layer adaptation, joint signal processing, coding and networking, selfishness in mobile ad hoc networks, cooperative and opportunistic protocols, adaptation techniques for multimedia support, self –organizing routing, and tunable security services. It presents several new theoretical paradigms and analytical findings which are supported with various simulation and experimental results. Adaptation in wireless communications is needed in order to achieve high capacity and ubiquitous communications. The current trend in wireless communication systems is to make adaptation dependent upon the state of the relevant parameters in all layers of the system. Focusing on simplified cross layer design approaches, this volume describes advanced techniques such as adaptive resource management, adaptive modulation and coding, 4G communications, QoS, diversity combining, and energy and mobility aware MAC protocols. The first volume in the series, Adaptive Signal Processing in Wireless Communications (cat no.46012) covers adaptive signal processing at the physical layer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current dominate layered networking architecture, in which each layer is designed and operated independently, results in inefficient and inflexible resource use in wireless networks due to the nature of the wireless medium, such as time-varying channel fading, mutual interference, and topology variations. In this thesis, we focus on resource allocation and scheduling in wireless orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) networks based on joint physical and medium access control (MAC) layer optimization. To achieve orders of magnitude gains in system performance, we use two major mechanisms in resource management: exploiting the time variance and frequency selectivity of wireless channels through adaptive modulation, coding, as well as packet scheduling and regulating resource allocation through network economics. With the help of utility functions that capture the satisfaction level of users for a given resource assignment, we establish a utility optimization framework for resource allocation in OFDM networks, in which the network utility at the level of applications is maximized subject to the current channel conditions and the modulation and coding techniques employed in the network. Although the nonlinear and combinatorial nature of the cross-layer optimization challenges algorithm development, we propose novel efficient dynamic subcarrier assignment (DSA) and adaptive power allocation (APA) algorithms that are proven to achieve the optimal or near-optimal performance with very low complexity. Based on a holistic design principle, we design max-delay-utility (MDU) scheduling, which senses both channel and queue information. The MDU scheduling can simultaneously improve the spectral efficiency and provide right incentives to ensure that all applications can receive their different required quality of service (QoS). To facilitate the cross-layer design, we also deeply investigate the mechanisms of channel-aware scheduling, such as efficiency, fairness, and stability. First, using extreme value theory, we analyze the impact of multiuser diversity on throughput and packet delay. Second, we reveal a generic relationship between a specific convex utility function and a type of fairness. Third, with rigorous proofs, we provide a method to design cross-layer scheduling algorithms that allow the queueing stability region at the network layer to approach the ergodic capacity region at the physical layer.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We develop channel aware scheduling and resource allocation schemes with cross-layer optimization for several problems in multiuser wireless networks. We consider problems of distributed opportunistic scheduling, where multiple users contend to access the same set of channels. Instead of scheduling users to the earliest available idle channels, we also take the instantaneous channel quality into consideration and schedule the users only when the channel quality is sufficiently high. This can lead to significant gains in throughput compared to system where PHY and MAC layers are designed separately and the wireless fading channels are abstracted as time invariant, fixed rate channels for scheduling purposes. We first consider opportunistic spectrum access in a cognitive radio network, where a secondary user (SU) share the spectrum opportunistically with incumbent primary users (PUs). Similar to earlier works on distributed opportunistic scheduling (DOS), we maximize the throughput of SU by formulating the channel access problem as a maximum rate-of-return problem in the optimal stopping theory framework. We show that the optimal channel access strategy is a pure threshold policy, namely the SU decides to use or skip transmission opportunities by comparing the channel qualities to a fixed threshold. We further increase the spectrum utilization by interleaving SU's packets with periodic sensing to detect PU's return. We jointly optimize the rate threshold and the packet transmission time to maximize the average throughput of SU, while limiting interference to PU. Next, we develop channel-aware opportunistic spectrum access strategies in a more general cognitive radio network with multiple SUs. Here, we additionally take into account the collisions and complex interaction between SUs and sharing of resources between them. We derive strategies for both cooperative settings where SUs maximize their sum total of throughputs, as well as non-cooperative game theoretic settings, where each SU tries to maximize its own throughput. We show that the optimal schemes for both scenarios are pure threshold policies. In the non-cooperative case, we establish the existence of Nash equilibrium and develop best response strategies that can converge to equilibria, with SUs relying only on their local observations. We study the trade-off between maximal throughput in the cooperative setting and fairness in the non-cooperative setting, and schemes based on utility functions and pricing that mitigate this tradeoff. In addition to maximizing throughput and fair sharing of resources, it is important to consider network/scheduling delays for QoS performance of delay-sensitive applications. We study DOS under both network-wide and user-specific average delay constraints. We take a stochastic Lagrangian approach and characterize the corresponding optimal scheduling policies accordingly, and show that they have a pure threshold structure. Next, we consider the use of different types of channel quality information, i.e., channel state information (CSI) and channel distribution information (CDI) in the opportunistic scheduling design for MIMO ad hoc networks. CSI is highly dynamic in nature and provides time diversity in the wireless channel, but is difficult to track. CDI offers temporal stability, but is incapable of capturing the instantaneous channel conditions. We design a new class of cross-layer opportunistic channel access scheduling framework for MIMO networks where CDI is used in the network context to group the simultaneous transmission links for spatial channel access and CSI is used in the link context to decide when and which link group should transmit based on a pre designed threshold. We thereby reap the benefits of both the temporal stability of CDI and the time diversity of CSI. Finally, we consider a novel application of cross layer optimization for communication of progressive coded images over OFDM wireless fading channels. We first consider adaptive modulation based on the instantaneous channel state information. An algorithm is proposed to allocate power and constellation size at each subchannel by maximizing the throughput. We next consider both the variance and the average of the throughput when deciding the constellation size for adaptive modulation. Simulation results confirm that cross-layer optimization with adaptive modulation enhances system performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys state-of-the-art optimization modeling for design, analysis, and management of wireless networks, such as cellular and wireless local area networks (LANs), and the services they deliver. The past two decades have seen a tremendous growth in the deployment and use of wireless networks. The current-generation wireless systems can provide mobile users with high-speed data services at rates substantially higher than those of the previous generation. As a result, the demand for mobile information services with high reliability, fast response times, and ubiquitous connectivity continues to increase rapidly. The optimization of system performance has become critically important both in terms of practical utility and commercial viability, and presents a rich area for research. In the editors' previous work on traditional wired networks, we have observed that designing low cost, survivable telecommunication networks involves extremely complicated processes. Commercial products available to help with this task typically have been based on simulation and/or proprietary heuristics. As demonstrated in this book, however, mathematical programming deserves a prominent place in the designer's toolkit. Convenient modeling languages and powerful optimization solvers have greatly facilitated the implementation of mathematical programming theory into the practice of commercial network design. These points are equally relevant and applicable in today’s world of wireless network technology and design. But there are new issues as well: many wireless network design decisions, such as routing and facility/element location, must be dealt with in innovative ways that are unique and distinct from wired (fiber optic) networks. The book specifically treats the recent research and the use of modeling languages and network optimization techniques that are playing particularly important and distinctive roles in the wireless domain.
Download or read book Optimal Cross Layer Design for CDMA SFBC Wireless Systems written by Taimour Aldalgamouni and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for high speed reliable wireless services has been rapidly growing. Wireless networks have limited resources while wireless channels suffer from fading, interference and time variations. Furthermore, wireless applications have diverse end to end quality of service (QoS) requirements. The aforementioned challenges require the design of spectrally efficient transmission systems coupled with the collaboration of the different OSI layers i.e. cross layer design. To this end, we propose a code division multiple access (CDMA)-space frequency block coded (SFBC) systems for both uplink and downlink transmissions. The proposed systems exploit code, frequency and spatial diversities to improve reception. Furthermore, we derive closed form expressions for the average bit error rate of the proposed systems. In this thesis, we also propose a cross layer resource allocation algorithm for star CDMA-SFBC wireless networks. The proposed resource allocation algorithm assigns base transceiver stations (BTS), antenna arrays and frequency bands to users based on their locations such that their pair wise channel cross correlation is minimized while each user is assigned channels with maximum coherence time. The cooperation between the medium access control (MAC) and physical layers as applied by the optimized resource allocation algorithm improves the bit error rate of the users and the spectral efficiency of the network. A joint cross layer routing and resource allocation algorithm for multi radio CDMA-SFBC wireless mesh networks is also proposed in this thesis. The proposed cross layer algorithm assigns frequency bands to links to minimize the interference and channel estimation errors experienced by those links. Channel estimation errors are minimized by selecting channels with maximum coherence time. On top, the optimization algorithm routes network traffic such that the average end to end packet delay is minimized while avoiding links with high interference and short coherence time. The cooperation between physical, MAC and network layers as applied by the optimization algorithm provides noticeable improvements in average end to end packet delay and success rate.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The work here proposes a framework for resource-allocation in mobile worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) networks with quality of service (QoS) support that aims to balance between service provider's revenue and subscriber's satisfaction. Since a better optimization can be achieved with the exchange of information across protocol layers, a cross-layer design approach is followed to efficiently utilize the scarce radio resources available to Mobile WiMAX networks. In particular, the thesis presents a resource-allocation algorithm at the physical (PHY) layer that supports multiple connections with diverse service classes and QoS requirements. The algorithm prioritizes each connection bases on the QoS requirements (for example the required minimum data rate and maximum latency), queue status, and channel condition of every connection. Resources are then allocated in a way that maximizes the system throughput while meeting the overall transmit-power constraint and QoS guarantees, and ensuring fairness among users. The algorithm is shown to provide a performance that is comparable to the maximum system throughput approach which does not support QoS or fairness.
