Radio definida por software y docencia en línea: experiencia en el Grado en Ingeniería Telemática
2021
[EN] Devices based on software defined radio have been used in the last 6 years as motivating elements in the laboratory practices of digital communications courses at the Degree in Telematics Engineering of the University of Valencia. However, the development of these practices requires giving access to some hardware devices that are physically located in the laboratories of the School of Engineering. In this contribution, taking into account the current situation of hybrid learning and a possible transition to remote learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a system that allows the remote interaction with the software defined radio devices is proposed. This remote access system, in addition t…
Supporting code mobility and dynamic reconfigurations over Wireless MAC Processor Prototype
2014
Mobile networks for Internet Access are a fundamental segment of Internet access net- works, where resource optimization are really critical because of the limited bandwidth availability. While traditionally resource optimizations have been focused on high effi- cient modulation and coding schemes, to be dynamically tuned according to the wireless channel and interference conditions, it has also been shown how medium access schemes can have a significant impact on the network performance according to the application and networking scenarios. This thesis work proposes an architectural solution for supporting Medium Access Con- trol (MAC) reconfigurations in terms of dynamic programming and c…
FLUMO: FLexible Underwater MOdem
2019
The last years have seen a growing interest in underwater acoustic communications because of its applications in marine research, oceanography, marine commercial operations, the offshore oil industry and defense. High-speed communication in the underwater acoustic channel has been challenging because of limited bandwidth, extended multipath, refractive properties of the medium, severe fading, rapid time variation and large Doppler shifts. In this paper, we show an implementation of a flexible Software-Defined Acoustic (SDA) underwater modem, where modulation parameters are completely tunable to optimize performance. In particular, we develop the system architecture following two key ideas. …
Performance evaluation of OpenFlow enabled Commodity and Raspberry-pi Wireless Routers
2017
Software defined network (SDN) allows the decoupling of data and control plane for dynamic and scalable network management. SDN is usually associated with OpenFlow protocol which is a standard interface that enables the network controllers to determine the path of network packets across a network of switches. In this paper, we evaluate openflow performance using commodity wireless router and raspberry pi with two different SDN controllers. Our test setup consists of wired and wireless client devices connected to openflow enabled commodity wireless router and raspberry pi. All clients used traffic generator tool to transmits data to a sink server host. The results are promising and paves the…
Energy efficient resource allocation in heterogeneous software defined network: A reverse combinatorial auction approach
2015
In this paper, resource allocation for energy effi- ciency in heterogeneous Software Defined Network (SDN) with multiple network service providers (NSPs) is studied. The considered problem is modeled as a reverse combinatorial auction game, which takes different quality of service (QoS) requirements into account. The heterogeneous network selection associated with power allocation problem is optimized by maximizing the energy efficiency of data transmission. By exploiting the properties of fractional programming, the resulting non-convex Winner Determination Problem (WDP) is transformed into an equivalent subtractive convex optimization problem. The proposed reverse combinatorial auction ga…
NB PLC and Software Defined Networking for Smart Grid Applications
2017
During the last years, the installation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and the expected diffusion of Electrical Vehicles (EVs), is increasing the complexity of the distribution grid, making the management of the grid operated by Distribution System Operators (DSOs) more difficult. The Smart Grid approach tries to provide a response to these troubles, by means of a strong interaction between the power grid and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructures. The drawback of this approach is an increase in the management effort of the ICT infrastructures, for which the DSO are not prepared. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is an approach developed to manage complex ICT…
AI for Resource Allocation and Resource Allocation for AI: a two-fold paradigm at the network edge
2022
5G-and-beyond and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies are pushing a shift from the classic cloud-centric view of the network to a new edge-centric vision. In such a perspective, the computation, communication and storage resources are moved closer to the user, to the benefit of network responsiveness/latency, and of an improved context-awareness, that is, the ability to tailor the network services to the live user's experience. However, these improvements do not come for free: edge networks are highly constrained, and do not match the resource abundance of their cloud counterparts. In such a perspective, the proper management of the few available resources is of crucial importance to impr…
A Software Defined Radio Platform Implementing a WiFi and ZigBee Receiver
2006
A successful attempt to design and implement a multi-standard compliant Basebnd Processor is here presented. By exploiting the potential of FPGA's reconfigurability, the received signal from RF stage have been processed in order to properly decode frames of IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) and IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee) protocols. both falling within the ISM band (centered at 2.45GHz). The experimental implementation carried out is a practical demonstration of the Software Defined Radio concept.
Tietoturvan toteutus SD-WAN -operaattoripalveluissa
2017
Tutkielmassa selvitettiin vaihtoehtoja, joiden avulla palomuuraukseen liittyvä tekninen tietoturva voidaan toteuttaa uusissa SD-WAN -pohjaisissa verkottamisratkaisuissa ja niihin liittyvissä hybridiverkoissa operaattorin näkökulmasta. Palomuuraukseen liittyvää ratkaisua tulisi voida hyödyntää operaattorin asiakasverkoissa ja sen tulee skaalautua asiakkaiden käyttämien palveluiden mukaisesti. Tutkielmassa analysoitiin, kuinka SDN- ja NFV-teknologioita voidaan hyödyntää palomuurauksen toteutuksessa ja kannattaako palomuuraus toteuttaa SDN-pohjaisessa verkossa keskitetysti vai hajautetusti. Lisäksi pohdittiin, kuinka verkon hallinta voidaan toteuttaa keskitetysti, jotta jokaista verkon laitett…
SDN controllers security issues
2017
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is essentially varying the way we design and manage networks, which makes a communication network programmable. In SDN, a logically centralized controller has straight control over the packet-handling functions of the network switches, using a standard, open API (Application Programming Interface) such as OpenFlow. OpenFlow is a broadly used protocol for software-defined networks (SDNs) that presents a new model in which the control plane is inattentive from the forwarding plane for the network devices. In SDN approach centralized entities called "controllers" perform like network operating systems run dissimilar applications that accomplish and control the…
