This book was released on 2017-08-18 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an in-depth discussion on how to efficiently manage resources of heterogeneous wireless networks and how to design resource allocation algorithms to suit real world conditions. Efficiently managing resources of the networks is more crucial now, than ever before, to meet users’ rapidly increasing demand for higher data rates, better quality-of-service (QoS) and seamless coverage. Some of the techniques that can be incorporated within heterogeneous wireless networks to achieve this objective are interworking of the networks, user multi-homing and device-to-device (D2D) communication. Designing resource allocation algorithms to suit real world conditions is also important, as the algorithms should be deployable and perform well in real networks. For example, two of the conditions considered in this book are resource allocation intervals of different networks are different and small cell base stations have limited computational capacity. To address the first condition, resource allocation algorithms for interworking systems are designed to allocate resources of different networks at different time-scales. To address the second condition, resource allocation algorithms are designed to be able to run at cloud computing servers. More of such conditions, algorithms designed to suit these conditions, modeling techniques for various networks and performance analysis of the algorithms are discussed in the book. This book concludes with a discussion on the future research directions on the related fields of study. Advanced-level students focused on communication and networking will use this book as a study guide. Researchers and experts in the fields of networking, converged networks, small-cell networks, resource management, and interference management, as well as consultants working in network planning and optimization and managers, executives and network architects working in the networking industry will also find this book useful as a reference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to improve the performance of mobile networks, one widely promoted approach is to install a diverse set of small-cells overlaying the current macrocell network to form a multi-tier heterogeneous wireless network (HWN). In this thesis, I propose new stochastic approaches to evaluate and design HWNs by investigating user load, interference patterns, and user mobility, the results of which provide new analytical insights and design guidelines to improve future HWNs. In the first part of this thesis, I focus on the evaluation of user load through characterizing the joint distribution of users in different cells in an HWN with arbitrary user movement trajectories and dependently distributed user channel holding times. Through developing a new stochastic network analysis framework, I derive a closed-form expression for the joint user distribution, which is only related to the average arrival rate and the average channel holding time of each cell, and hence it is irrelevant to the general user movement patterns and distributions of channel holding times. This property suggests that accurate evaluation of the user distribution and other associated metrics such as the system workload can be achieved with low complexity, without the need to collect a large amount of user location data. The multi-tier architecture of HWNs introduces complicated interference patterns in the system. In the second part of this thesis, I introduce a stochastic analytical framework to compare the performance of open and closed access modes in a two-tier network with macrocells and femtocells, with regard to uplink interference and outage at both the macrocell and femtocell levels. A stochastic geometric approach is employed as the basis for the analysis to characterize the distributions of uplink interference and the outage probabilities. I further derive sufficient conditions for open and closed access modes to outperform each other in terms of the outage probability at either the macrocell or femtocell level. This leads to closed-form expressions to upper and lower bound the difference in the targeted received power between the two access modes. In the third part of this thesis, I study the resource allocation and user association problem in HWNs with random distributed users and BSs for optimizing the average user data rate. Both the user load and interference patterns are considered. I first derive the average user data rate through stochastic geometric analysis. The expression is employed as the objective function of the optimization problem, which is non-convex in nature and cannot be solved with a standard method. Then, I propose an innovative approach, solving the optimization problem optimally for low user density, and asymptotically optimally for high user density. The deployment of small-cell BSs in HWNs leads to a higher user data rate, but it also introduces more handoffs to the users. In the fourth part of this thesis, I present a new stochastic geometric analysis framework on user mobility in HWNs, which captures the spatial randomness and various scales of cell sizes in different tiers. I derive analytical expressions for the rates of all handoff types experienced by an active user with arbitrary movement trajectory. Noting that the data rate of a user also depends on the set of cell tiers that it is willing to use, I also provide guidelines for tier selection under various user velocity, so that an optimal tradeoff between the handoff rate and the data rate can be achieved.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One critical step to successfully integrate wireless data networks to the high-speed wired backbone is the design of network control policies that efficiently utilize resources to provide Quality of Service (QoS) to the users in the integrated networks. Such a design has remained a challenge since wireless networks are time-varying in nature, not only in terms of user/packet arrivals but also in terms of physical channel conditions and access opportunities. In this thesis, we study the stochastic control of time-varying networks to design efficient scheduling and resource allocation policies. Finally, motivated by the current under-utilization of wireless spectrum, in Chapter 5, we investigate the control of cognitive radio networks as a special example of networks that provide time-varying access opportunities. We assume that users dynamically join and leave the network and may have different utility functions, or could collaborate for a common purpose. We develop a policy that performs joint admission and resource control and works for any user load, either inside or outside the capacity region. Through Lyapunov Optimization techniques, we show that the developed policy can achieve a utility performance arbitrarily close to the optimality with a tradeoff in the average service delay of admitted users. In particular, in Chapter 3, we focus on a broad class of control policies that work based on a pick-and-compare principle for networks with time-varying channels. By trading the throughput for complexity and memory requirement, these policies require less complexity compared to the well-investigated throughput-optimal Generalized Maximum Weight Matching (GMWM) policy and also require only linear-memory storage with the number of dataflows. Through Lyapunov analysis tools, we characterize the stability region and delay performance of the studied policies and show how they vary in response to the channel variations. In Chapter 4, we go into further detail and consider the problem of network control from a new perspective through which we carefully incorporate the time-efficiency of underlying scheduling algorithms. Specifically, we develop a policy that dynamically adjusts the time given to the available scheduling algorithms according to queue-backlog and channel correlations. We study the resulting stability region of developed policy and show that the region is at least as large as the one for any static policy.

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 2011 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation recommends system engineering designs that implement the latest technologies in OFDMA cellular and femtocellular networks, specifically in the area of resource allocation and interference coordination. These recommended designs guarantee good user experience for time-sensitive applications such as streaming video. While throughput is often the metric used to benchmark a system, field performance requires the system also guarantees a maximum service latency to satisfy users. This dissertation provides both intuitive and low-overhead schemes that are robust and practical for implementation. The novelty of this work is the application of stochastic control techniques that guarantee the Quality of Service (QoS) through proper buffer management. Guarantee of a non-empty user buffer for streaming applications prevents service interruption. The thesis considers both centralized and distributed topologies that result from either a single base-station serving many users, or many femtocell base-stations each serving a single user, respectively. This dissertation provides insight and solutions to the following question: Under the constraints of buffer management, how does a system engineer determine the transmission scheme, resource allocation algorithms, transmitter coordination, user feedback, and achievable QoS guarantees that maximize efficiency. A combination of theory, heuristics motivated in theory, and numerical simulations will justify the presented methods.

Download or read book Ultra Dense Heterogeneous Networks written by Wen Sun and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-14 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven by the ever-increasing amount of mobile data, cellular networks evolve from small cell network to ultra-dense heterogeneous networks, to provide high system capacity and spectrum efficiency. By bringing base stations (BSs) to the approximate spatial scale and number magnitude, ultra-dense heterogeneous networks would definitely bring unprecedented paradigm changes to the network design. Firstly, along with densification of small cells, inter-cell interference becomes severe and may deteriorate performance of mobile users. Assigning network resources including bandwidth and time slots, while avoiding interference, desires serious consideration. Secondly, the coverage area of BSs becomes small and irregular, resulting in much frequent and complicated handovers when mobile users move around. How to ensure continuous communication and implement effective mobility management, and inter-cell resource allocation and cooperation, remains a challenging issue. Thirdly, such dynamic change in spatial dimension enables us to re-investigate available and ongoing communications and networking techniques, such as massive MIMO, CoMP, millimeter waves (mmWaves), carrier aggregation, full duplex radio, and D2D communications. To address the aforementioned challenging research issues, this book will investigate the service and QoE provisioning in ultra-dense heterogeneous networks. In particular, firstly we introduce ultra-dense heterogeneous networks by careful definition regarding spatial deployment, generic characteristics, and requirements of ultra-dense heterogeneous networks in order to ensure QoE of mobile users. Secondly, we depict the resource management among small cells in close proximity, mobility management for mobile users (address the super-frequent handovers), and interference management (dealing with the interference due to frequency-reuse in the vicinity). Thirdly, we study the enabling factors, and the integration of ultra-dense heterogeneous networks with enabling technologies, such as massive-MIMO, cloud-RAN, mmWaves, D2D, IoT. Finally, we conclude the book and indicate future directions and challenges.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increased use of mobile wireless devices that we have recently been witnessing, such as smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and WiFi enabled devices in general, is driving an unprecedented increase in the amount of data traffic. This fast market adoption of the wireless technology along with the tremendous success of multimedia applications brought about higher capacity, connectivity, and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements that can no longer be met with traditional networking paradigms. As a result, heterogeneous wireless networks have recently emerged as a potential solution for meeting such new requirements. Hybrid wireless mesh networks and femtocell/macrocell networks are examples of these newly emerging heterogeneous networks. While mesh networks are viewed as the backbone/core network, femtocell and cellular networks are viewed as the access networks linking end-users with the backbone networks. In this dissertation, we address the problem of resource allocation in heterogeneous networks. We investigate both types of networks/architectures: next-generation wireless backbone networks or simply wireless mesh networks (WMNs) and next-generation wireless access networks or simply femtocell (FC) networks. WMNs were first introduced to foster the availability of Internet services anywhere and at anytime. However, capacity limitation has been a fundamental challenge to WMNs, mainly due to the interference arising from the wireless nature of the environment as well as to the scarcity of the radio/channel resources. To overcome this problem, we propose in this dissertation an efficient scheduling scheme that reduces interference among active links via wise time and frequency assignments to the wireless mesh routers. The developed scheme is traffic aware in that it maximizes the capacity of wireless links but while accounting for their traffic loads, thus meeting the end-to-end bandwidth requirements as much as possible. In the second part of this thesis, we focus on developing power allocation techniques for FC networks. FCs have recently emerged as a key networking solution that has great potential for improving the capacity and coverage of traditional macrocell (MC) networks through high-speed indoor coverage. Their deployment, however, has given rise to new interference challenges which are mainly due to the FCs' autonomous nature and to the unreliability of the wireless medium. Driven by this fact, in the second part of this thesis, we first design a fully-distributed estimation-based power allocation scheme that aims at fairly maximizing the capacity of FC networks. Second, we propose a novel distributed stochastic power control scheme that aims at maintaining the users' minimum= required QoS. Finally, we provide cross-layer performance analysis of two-tier FC networks, in which we characterize the uplink interference and study its impact on the data-link layer QoS performance in FC networks.
