Prediction-based techniques for the optimization of mobile networks
Mención Internacional en el tÃtulo de doctorMobile cellular networks are complex system whose behavior is characterized by the superposition
of several random phenomena, most of which, related to human activities, such as mobility,
communications and network usage. However, when observed in their totality, the many individual
components merge into more deterministic patterns and trends start to be identifiable and
predictable.
In this thesis we analyze a recent branch of network optimization that is commonly referred to
as anticipatory networking and that entails the combination of prediction solutions and network
optimization schemes. The main intuition behind anticipatory networking is that knowing in
advance what is going on in the network can help understanding potentially severe problems and
mitigate their impact by applying solution when they are still in their initial states. Conversely,
network forecast might also indicate a future improvement in the overall network condition (i.e.
load reduction or better signal quality reported from users). In such a case, resources can be
assigned more sparingly requiring users to rely on buffered information while waiting for the
better condition when it will be more convenient to grant more resources.
In the beginning of this thesis we will survey the current anticipatory networking panorama
and the many prediction and optimization solutions proposed so far. In the main body of the work,
we will propose our novel solutions to the problem, the tools and methodologies we designed to
evaluate them and to perform a real world evaluation of our schemes.
By the end of this work it will be clear that not only is anticipatory networking a very promising
theoretical framework, but also that it is feasible and it can deliver substantial benefit to current
and next generation mobile networks. In fact, with both our theoretical and practical results we
show evidences that more than one third of the resources can be saved and even larger gain can
be achieved for data rate enhancements.Programa Oficial de Doctorado en IngenierÃa TelemáticaPresidente: Albert Banchs Roca.- Presidente: Pablo Serrano Yañez-Mingot.- Secretario: Jorge OrtÃn Gracia.- Vocal: Guevara Noubi
