Throughput Analysis of Buffer-Constrained Wireless Systems in the Finite Blocklength Regime
In this paper, wireless systems operating under queueing constraints in the
form of limitations on the buffer violation probabilities are considered. The
throughput under such constraints is captured by the effective capacity
formulation. It is assumed that finite blocklength codes are employed for
transmission. Under this assumption, a recent result on the channel coding rate
in the finite blocklength regime is incorporated into the analysis and the
throughput achieved with such codes in the presence of queueing constraints and
decoding errors is identified. Performance of different transmission strategies
(e.g., variable-rate, variable-power, and fixed-rate transmissions) is studied.
Interactions between the throughput, queueing constraints, coding blocklength,
decoding error probabilities, and signal-to-noise ratio are investigated and
several conclusions with important practical implications are drawn
Random Fluid Limit of an Overloaded Polling Model
In the present paper, we study the evolution of an overloaded cyclic polling
model that starts empty. Exploiting a connection with multitype branching
processes, we derive fluid asymptotics for the joint queue length process.
Under passage to the fluid dynamics, the server switches between the queues
infinitely many times in any finite time interval causing frequent oscillatory
behavior of the fluid limit in the neighborhood of zero. Moreover, the fluid
limit is random. Additionally, we suggest a method that establishes finiteness
of moments of the busy period in an M/G/1 queue.Comment: 36 pages, 2 picture
