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.

This book was released on 2006-07-06 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the pattern of the Internet growth in popularity, started in the early 1990s, the current unprecedented expansion of wireless technology promises to have an even greater effect on how people communicate and interact, with considerable socio-economic impact all over the world. The driving force behind this growth is the remarkable progress in component miniaturization, integration, and also devel- ments in waveforms, coding, and communication protocols. Besides established infrastructurebased wireless networks (cellular, WLAN, sat- lite) ad-hoc wireless networks emerge as a new platform for distributed applications and for personal communication in scenarios where deploying infrastructure is not feasible. In ad-hoc wireless networks, each node is capable of forwarding packets on behalf of other nodes, so that multi-hop paths provide end-to-end connectivity. The increased flexibility and mobility of ad-hoc wireless networks are favored for appli- tions in law enforcement, homeland defense and military. In a world where wireless networks become increasingly interoperable with each other and with the high-speed wired Internet, personal communication systems will transform into universal terminals with instant access to variate content and able of handle demanding tasks, such as multimedia and real-time video. With users roaming between networks, and with wide variation in wireless link quality even in a single domain, the communications terminal must continue to provide a level of Quality of Service that is acceptable to the user and conforms to a contracted Service Level Agreement.

Download or read book Radio Resource Management for Multimedia QoS Support in Wireless Networks written by Huan Chen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the great success and enormous impact of IP networks, In ternet access (such as sending and receiving e-mails) and web brows ing have become the ruling paradigm for next generation wireless systems. On the other hand, great technological and commercial success of services and applications is being witnessed in mobile wire less communications with examples of cellular, pes voice telephony and wireless LANs. The service paradigm has thus shifted from the conventional voice service to seamlessly integrated high quality mul timedia transmission over broadband wireless mobile networks. The multimedia content may include data, voice, audio, image, video and so on. With availability of more powerful portable devices, such as PDA, portable computer and cellular phone, coupled with the easier access to the core network (using a mobile device), the number of mobile users and the demand for multimedia-based applications is increasing rapidly. As a result, there is an urgent need for a sys tem that supports heterogeneous multimedia services and provides seamless access to the desired resources via wireless connections. Therefore, the convergence of multimedia communication and wireless mobile networking technologies into the next generation wireless multimedia (WMM) networks with the vision of "anytime, anywhere, anyform" information system is the certain trend in the foreseeable future. However, successful combination of these two technologies presents many challenges such as available spectral bandwidth, energy efficiency, seamless end-to-end communication, robustness, security, etc.

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.

Download or read book Radio Resource Management in Cellular Systems written by Nishith D. Tripathi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio Resource Management in Cellular Systems is the first book to address the critical issue of radio resource management in emerging (i.e., third generation and beyond) wireless systems. This book presents novel approaches for the design of high performance handoff algorithms that exploit attractive features of several existing algorithms, provide adaptation to dynamic cellular environment, and allow systematic tradeoffs among different system characteristics. Efficient handoff algorithms cost-effectively enhance the capacity and quality of service (QoS) of cellular systems. A comprehensive foundation of handoff and related issues of cellular communications is given. Tutorial-type material on the general features of 3G and 3.5G wireless systems (including CDMA2000, UMTS, and 1xEV-DO) is provided. Key elements for the development of simulators to study handoff and overall RF performance of the integrated voice and data cellular systems (including those based on CDMA) are also described. Finally, the powerful design tools of neural networks and fuzzy logic are applied to wireless communications, so that the generic algorithm approaches proposed in the book can be applied to many other design and development areas. The simulation models described in the book represent a single source that provides information for the performance evaluation of systems from handoff and resource management perspectives. Radio Resource Management in Cellular Systems will prove a valuable resource for system designers and practicing engineers working on design and development of third generation (and beyond) wireless systems. It may also be used as a text for advanced-level courses in wireless communications and neural networks.

Download or read book Resource Management for Wireless System Optimization Transmission and Services written by Hang Qin and published by Scientific Research Publishing, Inc. USA. This book was released on 2017-05-31 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to many factors including power control, scheduling, flow routing, and so on, the resource management via optimization is the key to ensure overall end-to-end performance of wireless systems. Data transmission and the service, is one of the most important topics for the future wireless and communication networks. In the past decade, people have witnessed a significant progress in the advance of resource management over wireless systems. It is not only an important research topic, but also emerging as an integral material for graduate-level networking courses for students in Computing Science major. Nevertheless, there are few books available to date that can serve such a purpose. It is because of the cross-disciplines that resource management requires, which cover a broad range of topics, making it especially challenging to develop a specific book to cover them all. For instance, cross-layer resource management has to be specific with different design variables and constraints, hence different networking scenarios have different end-to-end utility goals and service objectives, and different problem formulations to employ different optimization methods. To respond to the need of such a book for graduate/undergraduate students, researchers and engineers, this book try to tackle the difficulties by bringing together the resource management and optimization design in wireless system. This intent is to either serve as a textbook for advanced graduate-level courses on wireless and communication networks, or as a reference book by students and engineers.

Download or read book Resource Allocation and Cross layer Control in Wireless Networks written by Leonidas Georgiadis and published by Now Publishers Inc. 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.

Download or read book Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks written by Sławomir Stańczak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wireless industry is in the midst of a fundamental shift from providing voice-only services to offering customers an array of multimedia services, including a wide variety of audio, video and data communications capabilities. Future wireless networks will be integrated into every aspect of daily life, and therefore could affect our life in a magnitude similar to that of the Internet and cellular phones. This monograph demonstrates that these emerging applications and directions require fundamental understanding on how to design and control wireless networks that lies far beyond what the currently existing theory can provide. It is shown that mathematics is the key technology to cope with central technical problems in the design of wireless networks since the complexity of the problem simply precludes the use of engineering common sense alone to identify good solutions. The main objective of this book is to provide tools for better understanding the fundamental tradeoffs and interdependencies in wireless networks, with the goal of designing resource allocation strategies that exploit these interdependencies to achieve significant performance gains. The book consists of three largely independent parts: theory, applications and appendices. The latter contain foundational apects to make the book more understandable to readers who are not familiar with some basic concepts and results from linear algebra and convex analysis.

Download or read book Quality of service Aware Resource Control in Networked Computing Systems written by Dimitrios Tsamis and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging trends in computing have increasingly had a network-centric focus. Networked services offered through cloud computing paradigms have replaced applications that would traditionally run on local machines. In addition, the growing usage of applications such as social networking and platforms such as smartphones has resulted in greater need for ubiquitous network access. The consequent heightened demand for networked computing warrants efficient utilization of the limited network resources and more intelligent resource control algorithms, with a focus on providing an enhanced user experience. This thesis examines quality-of-service aware resource control for both wireless and wired networks. The first part of the thesis focuses on smartphones, which have become the de-facto mobile computing platform. A smartphone typically has access to multiple types of wireless networks, such as cellular networks and WiFi. Moreover, the functionality of smartphones can be expanded by installing applications. These two core characteristics of smartphones also reveal their most significant limitations: lower available bandwidth and limited computing power. Both of these limitations are addressed in this thesis. Available bandwidth on wireless networks fluctuates over time and is also shared among all users connecting to the same base station. In this work we present a dynamic bandwidth prediction model that makes short term predictions on the evolution of bandwidth. The model is dynamic and adjusts to the latest measurements provided by Zeus, a bandwidth measurement tool we designed and implemented on Nokia phones. The bandwidth predictions of our model are utilized in a novel rate control scheme, which we demonstrate to offer better performance than existing schemes. We next investigate the computing limitations of smartphones. A novel framework is considered, where computational tasks may be transferred to a central server and the results are fetched back at a later time. The central server has ample computing resources compared to the smartphones and the computing speedup outweighs the communication delays. The goal is to minimize the latency experienced by computational tasks, while judiciously utilizing the scarce memory resources available at the smartphone. Given the fluctuating nature of wireless bandwidth, there is a tradeoff between limited connectivity and congestion at the mobile. The second part of this thesis investigates resource control issues in wireline computing and more specifically in packet switches. Packet switches are essential parts of the Internet backbone and are also present in every data center. Modern data centers are severely constrained by their power consumption and power saving schemes would enable their further expansion. We propose novel power-aware scheduling algorithms for switches that offer significant power savings while sacrificing minimal performance. Finally, we examine a novel, scalable two-stage ingress memory switch architecture and we add backlog awareness to the scheduling algorithm to improve performance and fairness as perceived by the user.
