Classification of Solutions to the Minimum Energy Problem in One Dimensional Sensor Networks
2016
We classify of the minimum energy problem in one dimensional wireless sensor networks for the data transmission cost matrix which is a power function of the distance between transmitter and receiver with any real exponent. We show, how these solutions can be utilized to solve the minimum energy problem for the data transmission cost matrix which is a linear combination of two power functions. We define the minimum energy problem in terms of the sensors signal power, transmission time and capacities of transmission channels. We prove, that for the point-to-point data transmission method utilized by the sensors in the physical layer, when the transmitter adjust the power of its radio signal t…
Performance Analysis of STBC-OFDM Systems in Temporally or Spatially Correlated Fading Channels
2010
This paper analyzes the performance of space-time block coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In our analysis, we abandon the usually made assumption of quasi-static channel conditions. Instead of this, we consider the more general and realistic case that the channel envelope changes during two consecutive transmission time slots. In addition, we take the spatial correlation between sub-channels into account. We first present a general formal expression for the bit error probability (BEP), from which we find analytical solutions for the BEP not only for temporally fading channels but also for spatially correlated channels. The knowledge of the obtained analytical …
Best compromise solution for a new multiobjective scheduling problem
2006
In future wireless networks, a mobile terminal will be able to communicate with a service provider using several network connections. These connections to networks will have different properties and they will be priced separately. In order to minimize the total communication time and the total transmission costs, an automatic method for selecting the network connections is needed. Here, we describe the network connection selection problem and formulate it mathematically. We discuss solving the problem and analyse different multiobjective optimization approaches for it.
LoRa Technology Demystified: From Link Behavior to Cell-Level Performance
2020
In this paper we study the capability of LoRa technology in rejecting different interfering LoRa signals and the impact on the cell capacity. First, we analyze experimentally the link-level performance of LoRa and show that collisions between packets modulated with the same Spreading Factor (SF) usually lead to channel captures, while different spreading factors can indeed cause packet loss if the interference power is strong enough. Second, we model the effect of such findings to quantify the achievable capacity in a typical LoRa cell: we show that high SFs, generally seen as more robust, can be severely affected by inter-SF interference and that different criteria for deciding SF allocati…
Multicast delivery of file download services in 3G mobile networks with MBMS
2008
This article investigates the efficient transmission of file download services to several users simultaneously in 3G mobile networks with HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) and MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services). HSDPA supports high speed point-to-point (p-t-p) transmissions (up to several Mb/s), whereas with MBMS the same content can be transmitted with a point-to-multipoint (p-t-m) connection to multiple users in a unidirectional fashion. Multicast delivery can be implemented through only p-t-p transmissions with HSDPA, a single p-t-m transmission with MBMS, or using both jointly in a hybrid approach by employing HSDPA for error repair of the MBMS p-t-m transmission. We…
Indoor localization using time difference of arrival with UWB signals and unsynchronized devices
2020
Abstract Indoor location using radio frequency (RF) signals has been traditionally focused mainly on RSSI and fingerprint techniques, because methods based on time of arrival (ToA) or time difference of arrival (TDoA) were not suitable for measuring short distances. However, the release of the IEEE 802.15.4a standard, the emergence of commercial ultra wide band (UWB) transceivers that are compliant to this norm and the integration of high frequency oscillators have permitted the design of more accurate indoor localization systems using the RF signal transmission time. In this paper, we propose an indoor localization system based on TDoA for UWB. The method implements an only one way transmi…
Extended HSUPA coverage and enhanced battery saving opportunities with multiple TTI lengths
2010
3GPP has specified that terminals can be configured to use either 2 or 10 ms transmission time interval in high speed uplink packet access systems. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the benefit of exploiting a mixture of both of the transmissions time intervals within a cell instead of only one. The study is quantified by means of studying the achievable coverage of voice over IP and possible battery saving benefits. The analysis is conducted with a system level simulator modeling network and terminal behavior in detail. The paper indicates that utilizing a mixture of both transmission time intervals can extend coverage whilst providing enhanced battery saving opportunities.
