This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the interest in 4G communication systems continues to grow, both academia and industry agree that a symbiotic relationship between various wireless systems is required to provide continuous broadband coverage to mobile users. It is generally accepted that a single wireless access technology alone will be incapable of meeting the various requirements of mobility, data rate and coverage in the future. Future wireless systems are envisioned as being heterogeneous in that they will include a combination of various wireless access technologies such as 3G, WLAN, and WiMAX and will have a common IP core. To fully utilize the various resources and maintain seamless connectivity in the future heterogeneous wireless environment, intelligent handoff schemes that are flexible, scalable and proactive are essential. Therefore, a new handoff decision method, one that works in a novel business model--Heterogeneous Wireless Service Provider (HWSP)--was developed with an aim to improve the mobile user's user experience. More effort was spent to achieve a good level of user satisfaction, by making the entire selection process automatic, and the user oblivious of the underlying network selection intricacies. The algorithm is able to make the final network decision, based on any particular user's speed, location, QoS demands and preference policies. This allows the algorithm to prevent unwanted handoffs and reduce the cost associated with connecting to suboptimal networks.
Download or read book Network Selection and Rate Allocation in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks and Systems written by Xiaoyuan Wang and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heterogeneous wireless network (HWN) technology has emerged in the next generation mobile networks, which enables mobile client (MC) to simultaneously communicate with multiple heterogeneous access networks for better quality of services (QoS) and lower service cost. By the context of conventional network protocols, separately and independently operating network interfaces cannot fully utilize the potential of a HWN. In this thesis, we model and analyze a HWN and system. The issues are identified as the multi-MAC management between MCs and access networks, and the multi-network (multi-NET) management between application servers and access networks. We propose a multi-MAC management scheme over multiple heterogeneous interface MACs to optimize multi-application performance with network selection and rate allocation for uplink traffic. We also propose a multi-NET management scheme for multi-user performance optimization in the downlink traffic, which is network-centric and distributes traffic into multiple access networks by supporting the inter-networking operations. Besides necessary optimization algorithms, procedures to implement our schemes are also provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heterogeneous wireless networking, which is sometimes referred to as the fourth-generation (4G) wireless, is a new frontier in the future wireless communications technology and there has been a growing interest on this topic among researchers and engineers in both academia and industry. This book will include a set of research and survey articles featuring the recent advances in theory and applications of heterogeneous wireless networking technology for the next generation (e.g., fourth generation) wireless communications systems. With the rapid growth in the number of wireless applications, services and devices, using a single wireless technology such as a second generation (2G) and third generation (3G) wireless system would not be efficient to deliver high speed data rate and quality-of-service (QoS) support to mobile users in a seamless way. Fourth generation (4G) wireless systems are devised with the vision of heterogeneity in which a mobile user/device will be able to connect to multiple wireless networks (e.g., WLAN, cellular, WMAN) simultaneously. This book intends to provide a unified view on the state-of-the-art of protocols and architectures for heterogeneous wireless networking. The contributed articles will cover both the theoretical concepts and system-level implementation issues related to design, analysis, and optimization of architectures and protocols for heterogeneous wireless access networks.

Download or read book Efficient Resource Allocation and Network Design in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks written by Haiping Liu and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless networks provide flexible and ubiquitous access to the telephone networks or the Internet. Multiple technologies have been developed to provide wireless access including cellular/3G/LTE, WiFi, and WiMAX. The cellular network is the most popular network, which provides the stable and constant service under most types of mobility. Its future version, LTE Advanced, is the most advanced wireless access technology, and supports the current or future bandwidth-sensitive and/or delay-sensitive applications, such as Voice over IP and real-time video streaming. The WiFi network has been aggressively deployed in many areas and provide access to laptops, PDAs and smartphones. These are referred to as WiFi hotspots. The basic WiFi infrastructure usually offers flexible and easy to deploy wireless access inside a small area at a low cost. The WiMAX network has its own advantages to provide higher transmission speed for a point-to-point communication over longer transmission distances. In many areas, these wireless networks co-exist, overlap and interlace with one another to create a heterogeneous wireless network. Instead of functioning independently, significant benefits can be accrued through cooperation and coordination among these networks by leveraging their unique advantages. This is possible as user devices come with multiple network interfaces to connect to each of these networks. In order to exploit the advantages of these heterogeneous networks, it is important to implement an efficient resource allocation algorithm to coordinate the resources of multiple wireless networks and also have a good design of the heterogeneous network. The dissertation makes contributions in both the above areas. In current WiFi networks, the overall spectrum is divided among multiple overlapping channels. The adjacent access points need to operate on orthogonal channels to avoid the interference. In Chapter II, we give a precise analysis of the interference among different channels and discuss the potential possibility of utilizing partially overlapping channels in the multi-hop mesh networks. It is possible to optimize different network performance metric, such as throughput, by balancing parallel transmissions and partially received transmission power offers the best system performance, such as throughput. In the multi-hop mesh networks, some mesh nodes are highly congested either due to the interferences from multiple neighbors, or when they are located at the intersection of multiple routing paths. These highly congested mesh nodes significantly degrade the network performance, since the throughput of a path is limited by the node with minimum capacity. In Chapter III, we discuss the efficient cooperation between a WiFi-based mesh network and a WiMAX network to mitigate the impact of congested nodes. The WiMAX network, with its longer transmission range, can be leveraged to bypass the traffic from some highly congested mesh nodes. The load balancing makes the throughput of the heterogeneous network higher than the sum of the throughput from the WiFi and WiMAX networks if they operate independently. In the widely deployed wireless networks, the infrastructure mode is used, where customer devices only communicate with the base stations. This mode is suitable for normal Internet access. However, some emerging applications, such as P2P file sharing, teleconferencing, network games, require frequent communications among terminals that may be in the coverage of the same base station. The exiting infrastructure mode of the network architecture results in high resource waste due to the unnecessary transmissions via the base station even when both the user could directly communicate. In Chapter IV, we propose a novel network architecture, Local-Interest-Group (LIG), in which all nodes can communicate in any ways according to the application requirements. The real-time algorithm and protocol minimize the interferences among co-existing LIGs and maximize the bandwidth utilization, which greatly improves the overall system performance under multiple performance metrics. In network planning, it is difficult to efficiently locate base stations due to the inaccuracies in the prediction of the traffic density. The movement of traffic to different parts in the city during different times of a day makes fixed base stations either operate at very low load or become highly congested at different time periods. Fortunately, the detailed analysis based on network measurement shows that the movement of traffic density is predicable. In Chapter V, we propose a new network component, Traffic-Tracing Gateway (TTG), which works as the base station but traces the traffic movement taking the advantage of the heterogeneous wireless networks. By following the optimal trajectories, TTGs cover the maximum traffic and provide much better system performance in both single-hop or multi-hop networks. This dissertation proposes efficient resource allocation methods in heterogenous wireless access network with partially overlapping channels and the cooperation between WiFi and WiMAX networks. In the dissertation, we also propose the novel network designs based on local-interest-groups and traffic-tracing gateways, to augment existing wireless access networks and making them more resource efficient while providing higher end-to-end performance.
