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 Robust Mobile Data Transport written by Yung-Chih Chen and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in wireless technologies and the pervasive influence of multi-homed devices have significantly changed the way people use the Internet. These changes of user behavior and the evolution of multi-homing technologies have brought a huge impact to today's network study and provided new opportunities to improve mobile data transport. In this thesis, we investigate challenges related to human mobility, with emphases on network performance at both system level and user level. More specifically, we seek to answer the following two questions: 1) How to model user mobility in the networks and use the model for network provisioning? 2) Is it possible to utilize network diversity to provide robust data transport in wireless environments? We first study user mobility in a large scale wireless network. We propose a mixed queueing model of mobility and show that this model can accurately predict both system-level and user-level performance metrics. Furthermore, we demonstrate how this model can be used for network dimensioning. Secondly, with the increasing demand of multi-homed devices that interact with heterogeneous networks such as WiFi and cellular 3G/4G, we explore how to leverage this path diversity to assist data transport. We investigate the technique of multi-path TCP (MPTCP) and evaluate how MPTCP performs in the wild through extensive measurements in various wireless environments using WiFi and cellular 3G/4G simultaneously. We study the download latencies of MPTCP when using different congestion controllers and number of paths under various traffic loads and over different cellular carriers. We further study the impact of short flows on MPTCP by modeling MPTCP's delay startup mechanism of additional flows. As flow sizes increase, we observe that traffic in cellular networks exhibits large and varying packet round trip times, called bufferbloat. We analyze the phenomenon of bufferbloat, and illustrate how bufferbloat can result in numerous MPTCP performance issues. We provide an effective solution to mitigate the performance degradation. Finally, as popular content is replicated at multiple locations, we develop mechanisms that take advantage of this source diversity along with path diversity to provide robust mobile data transport. We demonstrate this in the context of online video streaming, because of its popularity and significant contribution to Internet traffic. We therefore propose MSPlayer, a client-based solution for online video streaming that adjusts network traffic distribution over each path to network dynamics. MSPlayer bypasses the deployment limitations of MPTCP while maintaining the benefits of path diversity, and exploits different content sources simultaneously. MSPlayer can significantly reduce video start-up latency and quickly refill playout buffer for high quality video streaming. We evaluate MSPlayer's performance through YouTube.

Download or read book Realistic Mobility Modeling and Simulation for Mobile Wireless Network in Urban Environments written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobility clearly is an integral issue in mobile wireless networks. However, little research has focused on realistic mobility. Unrealistic mobility models, such as the popular Random Waypoint or Random Walk models, may result in incorrect conclusions regarding the performance evaluation of mobile wireless network protocols. This thesis introduces a mobility model and simulator that attempt to generate realistic mobility for mobile wireless network simulation in an urban setting. The mobility models are based on data collected in a number of surveys. The result is a 3-layer hierarchical model. The highest layer is an activity model that determines the high level activity (e.g., working). The second layer is a task model that determines the specific task within an activity (e.g., meeting with three people). The third layer is an agent model that determines how mobile nodes move from one location to another (e.g., how a node navigates down a crowded hallway). A mobility simulator implements the mobility model and is based on the technique of discrete event simulation with rescheduling. This simulator is the first realistic simulator for mobile wireless networks. It is hoped that this simulator will greatly increase the fidelity of mobile wireless network performance evaluation. Further, it is hoped that this work is usher in a new investigation of urban mobile wireless networks.

Download or read book Modeling and Design of Next generation Heterogeneous Wireless Networks written by Ahmed H. Zahran and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The service integration of different wireless access technologies is envisioned as a viable approach to accommodate the expected increase in the demand on wireless resources. This vision originates a new networking paradigm that introduces a new vertical mobility dimension, which significantly magnifies the mobility impact on the system performance and creates new challenging design issues that necessitate adopting novel innovative approaches to handle the inherent system heterogeneity.Clearly, vertical mobility is completely dismissed in the current mobility models that are primarily developed for homogeneous cellular systems. Hence, the development of new mobility models that consider vertical mobility in heterogeneous systems evolves as a crucial requirement for proper system design and performance evaluation. These models should satisfy general mobility modeling requirements such as flexibility and analytical tractability. More importantly, they should accommodate the correlation between the mobile terminal (MT) cell residence time (CRT) and the durations spent by the MT under the umbrellas of different technological coverage cocktails. In this dissertation, we developed a novel CRT mobility modeling framework that realizes the aforementioned modeling requirements. This framework is used to develop mobility models for two-tier and n-tier heterogeneous systems. Based on these models, we developed generic performance evaluation frameworks to estimate several salient performance metrics. Additionally, we employed the developed mobility modeling and performance evaluation frameworks to study several interesting network planning and dimensioning problems.In a complementary research direction, we studied vertical mobility management in heterogeneous systems. The asymmetric nature of vertical mobility is a novel design challenge that invalidates the traditional handoff decision mechanisms, which are based on comparing the signal strength from different base Stations of the same network. Hence, the vertical handoff decision should adopt novel mechanisms that consider a predetermined set of user preferences and network design goals. Consequently, we developed a novel flexible vertical handoff approach that, can adapt to different operating parameters such as, user mobility, required handoff delay, and different application requirements.

Download or read book Analytical Modeling of Wireless Communication Systems written by Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless networks represent an inexpensive and convenient way to connect to the Internet. However, despite their applications across several technologies, one challenge still remains: to understand the behavior of wireless sensor networks and assess their performance in large-scale scenarios. When a large number of network nodes need to interact, developing suitable analytical models is essential to ensure the appropriate coverage and throughput of these networks and to enhance user mobility. This is intrinsically difficult due to the size and number of different network nodes and users. This book highlights some examples which show how this problem can be overcome with the use of different techniques. An intensive parameter analysis shows the reader how to the exploit analytical models for an effective development and management of different types of wireless networks.
