Congestion Avoidance Using DYnamic COdec MAnagement: A solution for ISP
2005
The large diffusion of VoIP is an essential key for the success of emerging Internet service providers. These ISPs conflict with the interests of historical and predominant network maintainers which often control the network infrastructure and telephone services. To win this competition, emerging ISPs have to adopt strategic QoS solutions which will capture the attention of network users and phone clients. This paper presents a solution which is able to obtain the same performance of a 64 Kbps channel reducing the costs for over-provisioning network bandwidth. DyCoMa is a mechanism studied for VoIP applications in network with a limited bandwidth for multimedia services. It works preventing…
Hybrid kernel estimates of space-time earthquake occurrence rates using the Etas model
2010
The following steps are suggested for smoothing the occurrence patterns in a clustered space–time process, in particular the data from an earthquake catalogue. First, the original data is fitted by a temporal version of the ETAS model, and the occurrence times are transformed by using the cumulative form of the fitted ETAS model. Then the transformed data (transformed times and original locations) is smoothed by a space–time kernel with bandwidth obtained by optimizing a naive likelihood cross-validation. Finally, the estimated intensity for the original data is obtained by back-transforming the estimated intensity for the transformed data. This technique is used to estimate the intensity f…
Multi-Resource Management for Multi-Tier Space Information Networks: A Cooperative Game
2019
With the drastic increase of space information network (SIN) traffic and the diversity of network traffic types, the optimal allocation of the scarce network resources is of great significance for optimizing the SIN system capability. In this paper, we propose a multi-resource management method for multi-tier SIN using the cooperative Nash bargaining solution. Since the original problem is a non-convex problem, we firstly make logarithmic transition, and then find a tightest lower bound function to convert the initial problem into a convex one. In order to carry out the optimal bandwidth and power allocation in SIN, we construct a joint bandwidth and power allocation (JBPA) algorithm. Simul…
Practical Considerations in the Implementation of Collaborative Beamforming on Wireless Sensor Networks
2017
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of spatially distributed autonomous sensor devices, named motes. These motes have their own power supply, processing unit, sensors and wireless communications However with many constraints, such as limited energy, bandwidth and computational capabilities. In these networks, at least one mote called a sink, acts as a gateway to connect with other networks. These sensor networks run monitoring applications and then the data gathered by these motes needs to be retrieved by the sink. When this sink is located in the far field, there have been many proposals in the literature based on Collaborative Beamforming (CB), also known as Distributed or Cooper…
On the spectral moments of non-WSSUS mobile-to mobile double-Rayleigh fading channels
2017
This paper deals with the mathematical analysis of the spectral moments of non-wide-sensestationary uncorrelated-scattering (non-WSSUS) mobile-to-mobile (M2M) double-Rayleigh fading channels. The point of departure is a recently proposed geometry-based statistical model (GBSM) for M2M double-Rayleigh fading channels from which general analytical expressions are derived for the average Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, and delay spread. Closed-form solutions of such expressions are presented for the particular case of the geometrical two-rings scattering model. The obtained results indicate that the average Doppler shift and Doppler spread are directly influenced by not only the …
Channel aggregation with guard-band in D-OFDM based CRNs: Modeling and performance evaluation
2016
Channel aggregation (CA) techniques can offer flexible channel allocation and improve overall system performance in multi-channel cognitive radio networks (CRNs). Although many CA techniques have been proposed and studied, the impact of guard-band on CA for channel access has not been addressed in-depth. In this paper, we study the guard-band allocation mechanisms in discontinuous-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (D-OFDM) based CRNs, and investigate the impact of guard-band sharing on SU flows when CA is enabled. Continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) based models have been developed in order to investigate the stochastic behavior of PU and SU flows. Based on our mathematical analysi…
<title>Statistical bandwidth allocation for multiservice networks</title>
2002
Multiservice networks will carry di erent kinds of applications in the near future. Bandwidth requirements change rapidly, and the network resource management will play an important role to guarantee the use of the limited resources in the most eAEcient way. We approach the channel capacity allocation problem by developing an SLA (Service Level Agreement) based channel allocation method. In our model, the channel may be wired or wireless, so this method can be adapted in multi-technique networks. The algorithm allocates resources to several di erent service classes via several di erent capacity routes. Service provider perfroms optimization by allocating data rate in such a way that the sat…
Channel capacity of fading channels for differentially encoded transmission
1999
The capacity of flat fading channels when applying differential encoding with noncoherent reception and no channel state information available at the receiver is considered. Numerical results indicate the gains achievable by multiple symbol detection in the case of slowly time-varying channels and provide a comparison between schemes with different potential bandwidth efficiencies.
Optimized Multipactor-Resistant Wedge-Shaped Waveguide Bandpass Filters
2013
[EN] Wedge-shaped waveguides present a certain advantage with respect to rectangular waveguides regarding their resistance to multipactor discharges. In this paper, the optimal configuration for the wedge geometry is investigated based on theoretical results, on a precise multipactor prediction tool, and on previous experience. In addition, design rules are presented, which allow us to achieve for wedge-shaped filters electrical performances comparable to the ones of rectangular waveguide filters, while at the same time improving the multipactor-free power range. As a proof of concept, two three-pole bandpass filters with equivalent electrical characteristic of 150-MHz bandwidth, centered a…
Performance evaluation of three dynamic channel access strategies for spectrum leasing in CRNs
2015
Spectrum leasing in cognitive radio networks (CRNs) allows the primary network (PN) to lease a certain fraction of its licensed bandwidth to the secondary network (SN). The motivation for such a concept is to enhance the performance of SNs while improving channel utilization. Meanwhile, the license owners of the channels can also gain benefits through spectrum leasing in terms of either monetary rewards or cooperative communications. In this paper, we propose three dynamic channel access strategies for spectrum leasing in multi-channel CRNs. A common characteristic of all these strategies is that the priority for channel access over the leased spectrum is given to SNs and the unleased spect…
