Exploratory approach for network behavior clustering in LoRaWAN
2021
AbstractThe interest in the Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing both as for research and market perspectives. Worldwide, we are witnessing the deployment of several IoT networks for different applications, spanning from home automation to smart cities. The majority of these IoT deployments were quickly set up with the aim of providing connectivity without deeply engineering the infrastructure to optimize the network efficiency and scalability. The interest is now moving towards the analysis of the behavior of such systems in order to characterize and improve their functionality. In these IoT systems, many data related to device and human interactions are stored in databases, as well as I…
Using WMS log files as an indicator of QoS and application performance in on-demand streaming videos
2012
When utilizing video streaming for professional purposes, the quality of service needs to be evaluated by the service provider. This is the case especially when the service must be available for a large number of customers with a wide range of network interfaces and terminal equipment. Service providers have usually information about network-level metrics. However, the problem is that conditions that appear similar in a networklevel may cause very different responses in an application level, and the other way round. In this article, we study how Windows Media Server's log files can be used to evaluate the QoS of video transmission, and we also examine the application level performance based…
On the Fidelity of IEEE 802.11 commercial cards
2006
The IEEE 802.11 D CF protocol is known to be fair in terms of long-term resource repartition among the contending stations. However, when considering real scenarios, where commercial 802.11 cards interact, very unpredictable as well as sometimes surprising behaviors emerge. Motivation of this paper is to investigate the reasons of the very evident disagreement between the theoretical IEEE 802.11 DCF protocol models and its practical implementations. Inparticular, we try to characterize the card behavior not only in terms of perceived throughput, but also in terms of low-level channel access operations. In fact, the simple throughput analysis does not allow to identify what affecting paramet…
