Book Wireless Multimedia Network Technologies

Download or read book Wireless Multimedia Network Technologies written by Rajamani Ganesh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of invited papers that were presented at the Ninth IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications, September 5-8, 1998, Boston, MA. These papers are meant to provide a global view of the emerging third-generation wireless networks in the wake of the third millennium. Following the tradition of the PIMRC conferences, the papers are selected to strike a balance between the diverse interests of academia and industry by addressing issues of interest to the designers, manufacturers, and service providers involved in the wireless networking industry. The tradition of publishing a collection of the invited papers presented at the PIMRC started in PIMRC’97, Helsinki, Finland. There are two benefits to this tradition (1) it provides a shorter version of the proceedings of the conference that is more focused on a specific theme (2) the papers are comprehensive and are subject of a more careful review process to improve the contents as well as the presentation of the material, making it more appealing for archival as a reference book. The production costs of the book is subsidized by the conference and the editors have donated the royalty income of the book to the conference.

Book Power Control in Wireless Cellular Networks

Download or read book Power Control in Wireless Cellular Networks written by Mung Chiang and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2008 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transmit power in wireless cellular networks is a key degree of freedom in the management of interference, energy, and connectivity. Power control in both the uplink and downlink of a cellular network has been extensively studied, especially over the last 15 years, and some of the results have enabled the continuous evolution and significant impact of the digital cellular technology. This survey provides a comprehensive discussion of the models, algorithms, analysis, and methodologies in this vast and growing literature. It starts with a taxonomy of the wide range of power control problem formulations, and progresses from the basic formulation to more sophisticated ones. When transmit power is the only set of optimization variables, algorithms for fixed SIR are presented first, before turning to their robust versions and joint SIR and power optimization. This is followed by opportunistic and non-cooperative power control. Then joint control of power together with beamforming pattern, base station assignment, spectrum allocation, and transmit schedule is surveyed one-by-one. Throughout the survey, we highlight the use of mathematical language and tools in the study of power control, including optimization theory, control theory, game theory, and linear algebra. Practical implementations of some of the algorithms in operational networks are discussed in the concluding section. As illustrated by the open problems presented at the end of most chapters, in the area of power control in cellular networks, there are still many under-explored directions and unresolved issues that remain theoretically challenging and practically important.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's wireless communications and networking practices are tightly coupled with economic considerations, to the extent that it is almost impossible to make a sound technology choice without understanding the corresponding economic implications. This book aims at providing a foundational introduction on how microeconomics, and pricing theory in particular, can help us to understand and build better wireless networks. The book can be used as lecture notes for a course in the field of network economics, or a reference book for wireless engineers and applied economists to understand how pricing mechanisms influence the fast growing modern wireless industry. This book first covers the basics of wireless communication technologies and microeconomics, before going in-depth about several pricing models and their wireless applications. The pricing models include social optimal pricing, monopoly pricing, price differentiation, oligopoly pricing, and network externalities, supported by introductory discussions of convex optimization and game theory. The wireless applications include wireless video streaming, service provider competitions, cellular usage-based pricing, network partial price differentiation, wireless spectrum leasing, distributed power control, and cellular technology upgrade.

Book Interference Calculus

Download or read book Interference Calculus written by Martin Schubert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-20 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a mathematical framework for modeling and optimizing interference-coupled multiuser systems. At the core of this framework is the concept of general interference functions, which provides a simple means of characterizing interdependencies between users. The entire analysis builds on the two core axioms scale-invariance and monotonicity. The proposed network calculus has its roots in power control theory and wireless communications. It adds theoretical tools for analyzing the typical behavior of interference-coupled networks. In this way it complements existing game-theoretic approaches. The framework should also be viewed in conjunction with optimization theory. There is a fruitful interplay between the theory of interference functions and convex optimization theory. By jointly exploiting the properties of interference functions, it is possible to design algorithms that outperform general-purpose techniques that only exploit convexity. The title “network calculus” refers to the fact that the theory of interference functions constitutes a generic theoretical framework for the analysis of interference coupled systems. Certain operations within the framework are “closed”, that is, combinations of interference functions are interference functions again. Also, certain properties are preserved under such operations. This, provides a methodology for analyzing different multiuser performance measures that can be expressed as interference functions or combinations of interference functions.

Book Utility based Power Control for Packet switched Wireless Networks

Download or read book Utility based Power Control for Packet switched Wireless Networks written by Zhuyu Lei and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient management of radio resources is crucial in maintaining peak performance of cellular wireless networks under resources constraints. As wireless networks evolve toward 3G/4G and beyond with broadband multimedia services, managing radio resources to satisfy diverse Quality-of-Service requirements is becoming even more critical. Battery energy conservation for portable terminals on the move is another important aspect in wireless networks. Due to the limit on battery life-time, each unit of battery energy saved directly translates to an increase in the value of communication for a subscriber. In this work, we investigate a uplink power control problem for packet-switched data services, with a focus on energy efficiency for mobile terminals. Packet-switched data differ fundamentally from circuit-switched data in the burstiness of traffic and the connectionless nature of communications. Based on a utility-maximization approach from microeconomics, we define a probabilistic utility model as a performance metric for a wireless data user, which takes into account both the traffic burstiness and average packet delay requirement. Game-theoretic approach is then utilized to study a distributed power control strategy to simultaneously maximize the utility for each individual user in the system. In general, the problem is mathematically intractable. Using several approximation methods, the problem is reduced into tractable format and is studied both analytically and by simulations. Results show that the proposed power control scheme converges to a unique Nash equilibrium which depends on mobile's location, average packet delay requirement, traffic burstiness, and the mean and variance of the interference and background noise at mobile's base station receiver. The scheme can be easily extended to multi-class user traffic environments. For performance evaluation, we establish two idealized slot-by-slot based power control strategies as performance benchmarks. It's shown that the performance achieved by the proposed scheme is close to those by benchmark schemes. Generally, this work provides a new approach based on approximation techniques for the investigation of uplink power control problem in packet-switched systems. The results and insights generated by this study provide guidance on the efficient management of transmit powers for energy-efficient packet-switched data services in current and future generations of wireless networks.

Book Fundamentals of Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks

Download or read book Fundamentals of Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks written by Slawomir Stanczak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-06-29 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide tools for a better understanding of the fundamental tradeo?s and interdependencies in wireless networks, with the goal of designing resource allocation strategies that exploit these int- dependencies to achieve signi?cant performance gains. Two facts prompted us to write it: First, future wireless applications will require a fundamental understanding of the design principles and control mechanisms in wireless networks. Second, the complexity of the network problems simply precludes the use of engineering common sense alone to identify good solutions, and so mathematics becomes the key avenue to cope with central technical problems in the design of wireless networks. In this book, two ?elds of mathematics play a central role: Perron-Frobenius theory for non-negative matrices and optimization theory. This book is a revised and expanded version of the research monograph “Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks” that was published as Lecture Notes in Computer Sciences (LNCS 4000) in 2006. Although the general structure has remained unchanged to a large extent, the book contains - merous additional results and more detailed discussion. For instance, there is a more extensive treatment of general nonnegative matrices and interf- ence functions that are described by an axiomatic model. Additional material on max-min fairness, proportional fairness, utility-based power control with QoS (quality of service) support and stochastic power control has been added.

Book Robust Resource Allocation in Future Wireless Networks

Download or read book Robust Resource Allocation in Future Wireless Networks written by Saeedeh Parsaeefard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents state-of-the-art research on robust resource allocation in current and future wireless networks. The authors describe the nominal resource allocation problems in wireless networks and explain why introducing robustness in such networks is desirable. Then, depending on the objectives of the problem, namely maximizing the social utility or the per-user utility, cooperative or competitive approaches are explained and their corresponding robust problems are considered in detail. For each approach, the costs and benefits of robust schemes are discussed and the algorithms for reducing their costs and improving their benefits are presented. Considering the fact that such problems are inherently non-convex and intractable, a taxonomy of different relaxation techniques is presented, and applications of such techniques are shown via several examples throughout the book. Finally, the authors argue that resource allocation continues to be an important issue in future wireless networks, and propose specific problems for future research.
