System modeling and performance evaluation of rate allocation schemes for packet data services in wideband CDMA systems
To fully exploit the potential of a wideband CDMA-based mobile Internet computing system, an efficient algorithm is needed for judiciously performing rate allocation, so as to orchestrate and allocate bandwidth for voice services and high data rate applications. However, in existing standards (e.g., cdma2000), only a first-come-first-served equal sharing allocation algorithm is used, potentially leading to a low bandwidth utilization and inadequate support of high data rate multimedia mobile applications (e.g., video/audio files swapping, multimedia messaging services, etc.). In this paper, we first analytically model the rate allocation problem that captures realistic system constraints such as downlink power limits and control, uplink Interference effects, physical channel adaptation, and soft handoff. We then suggest six efficient rate allocation schemes that are designed based on different philosophies: rate optimal, fairness-based, and user-oriented. Simulations are performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the rate allocation schemes using realistic system parameters In our model.published_or_final_versio
An intelligent-agent approach for managing congestion in W-CDMA networks
PhDResource Management is a crucial aspect in the next generation cellular networks
since the use of W-CDMA technology gives an inherent flexibility in managing the
system capacity. The concept of a âService Level Agreementâ (SLA) also plays a
very important role as it is the means to guarantee the quality of service provided to
the customers in response to the level of service to which they have subscribed.
Hence there is a need to introduce effective SLA-based policies as part of the radio
resource management.
This work proposes the application of intelligent agents in SLA-based control in
resource management, especially when congestion occurs. The work demonstrates the
ability of intelligent agents in improving and maintaining the quality of service to
meet the required SLA as the congestion occurs.
A particularly novel aspect of this work is the use of learning (here Case Based
Reasoning) to predict the control strategies to be imposed. As the system environment
changes, the most suitable policy will be implemented. When congestion occurs, the
system either proposes the solution by recalling from experience (if the event is
similar to what has been previously solved) or recalculates the solution from its
knowledge (if the event is new). With this approach, the system performance will be
monitored at all times and a suitable policy can be immediately applied as the system
environment changes, resulting in maintaining the system quality of service
Soft handover issues in radio resource management for 3G WCDMA networks
PhDMobile terminals allow users to access services while on the move. This unique
feature has driven the rapid growth in the mobile network industry, changing it from a
new technology into a massive industry within less than two decades.
Handover is the essential functionality for dealing with the mobility of the mobile
users. Compared with the conventional hard handover employed in the GSM mobile
networks, the soft handover used in IS-95 and being proposed for 3G has better
performance on both link and system level.
Previous work on soft handover has led to several algorithms being proposed and
extensive research has been conducted on the performance analysis and parameters
optimisation of these algorithms. Most of the previous analysis focused on the uplink
direction. However, in future mobile networks, the downlink is more likely to be the
bottleneck of the system capacity because of the asymmetric nature of new services,
such as Internet traffic.
In this thesis, an in-depth study of the soft handover effects on the downlink
direction of WCDMA networks is carried out, leading to a new method of optimising
soft handover for maximising the downlink capacity and a new power control
approach
Power control for WCDMA
This project tries to introduce itself in the physical implementations that make
possible the denominated third generation mobile technology. As well as to
know the technology kind that makes possible, for example, a video-call in real
time.
During this project, the different phases passed from the election of WCDMA
like the access method for UMTS will appear. Its coexistence with previous
network GSM will be analyzed, where the compatibility between systems has
been one of the most important aspects in the development of WCDMA, the
involved standardization organisms in the process, as well as the different
protocols that make the mobile communications within a network UTRAN
possible. Special emphasis during the study of the great contribution that has
offered WCDMA with respect to the control of power of the existing signals will
be made.
The future lines that are considered in the present, and other comment that
already are in their last phase of development in the field of the mobile
technology.
UMTS through WCDMA can be summarized like a revolution of the air
interface accompanied by a revolution in the network of their architecture
Admission Control for Multiuser Communication Systems
During the last few years, broadband wireless communication has experienced very rapid growth in telecommunications industry. Hence, the performance analysis of such systems is one of the most important topics. However, accurate systemsâ analysis requires first good modeling of the network traffic. Moreover, broadband wireless communication should achieve certain performance in order to satisfy the customers as well as the operators. Therefore, some call admission control techniques should be integrated with wireless networks in order to deny new users/services if accepting them will lead to degrade the network performance to less than the allowed threshold. This thesis mainly discusses the above two issues which can be summarized as follows. First issue is the traffic modeling of wireless communication. The performance analysis is discussed in terms of the quality of services (QoS) and also the grade of services (GoS). Different scenarios have been studies such as enhancing the GoS of handover users. The second issue is the admission control algorithms. Admission Control is part of radio resource management. The performance of admission control is affected by channel characteristics such as fading and interference. Hence, some wireless channel characteristics are introduced briefly. Seven different channel allocation schemes have been discussed and analyzed. Moreover, different admission control algorithms are analyzed such as power-based and multi-classes fuzzy-logic based. Some simulations analyses are given as well to show the system performance of different algorithms and scenarios.fi=OpinnĂ€ytetyö kokotekstinĂ€ PDF-muodossa.|en=Thesis fulltext in PDF format.|sv=LĂ€rdomsprov tillgĂ€ngligt som fulltext i PDF-format
