Delay Constrained Throughput Analysis of a Correlated MIMO Wireless Channel
The maximum traffic arrival rate at the network for a given delay guarantee
(delay constrained throughput) has been well studied for wired channels.
However, few results are available for wireless channels, especially when
multiple antennas are employed at the transmitter and receiver. In this work,
we analyze the network delay constrained throughput of a multiple input
multiple output (MIMO) wireless channel with time-varying spatial correlation.
The MIMO channel is modeled via its virtual representation, where the
individual spatial paths between the antenna pairs are Gilbert-Elliot channels.
The whole system is then described by a K-State Markov chain, where K depends
upon the degree of freedom (DOF) of the channel. We prove that the DOF based
modeling is indeed accurate. Furthermore, we study the impact of the delay
requirements at the network layer, violation probability and the number of
antennas on the throughput under different fading speeds and signal strength.Comment: Submitted to ICCCN 2011, 8 pages, 5 figure
Statistical Delay Bound for WirelessHART Networks
In this paper we provide a performance analysis framework for wireless
industrial networks by deriving a service curve and a bound on the delay
violation probability. For this purpose we use the (min,x) stochastic network
calculus as well as a recently presented recursive formula for an end-to-end
delay bound of wireless heterogeneous networks. The derived results are mapped
to WirelessHART networks used in process automation and were validated via
simulations. In addition to WirelessHART, our results can be applied to any
wireless network whose physical layer conforms the IEEE 802.15.4 standard,
while its MAC protocol incorporates TDMA and channel hopping, like e.g.
ISA100.11a or TSCH-based networks. The provided delay analysis is especially
useful during the network design phase, offering further research potential
towards optimal routing and power management in QoS-constrained wireless
industrial networks.Comment: Accepted at PE-WASUN 201
Delay Performance of MISO Wireless Communications
Ultra-reliable, low latency communications (URLLC) are currently attracting
significant attention due to the emergence of mission-critical applications and
device-centric communication. URLLC will entail a fundamental paradigm shift
from throughput-oriented system design towards holistic designs for guaranteed
and reliable end-to-end latency. A deep understanding of the delay performance
of wireless networks is essential for efficient URLLC systems. In this paper,
we investigate the network layer performance of multiple-input, single-output
(MISO) systems under statistical delay constraints. We provide closed-form
expressions for MISO diversity-oriented service process and derive
probabilistic delay bounds using tools from stochastic network calculus. In
particular, we analyze transmit beamforming with perfect and imperfect channel
knowledge and compare it with orthogonal space-time codes and antenna
selection. The effect of transmit power, number of antennas, and finite
blocklength channel coding on the delay distribution is also investigated. Our
higher layer performance results reveal key insights of MISO channels and
provide useful guidelines for the design of ultra-reliable communication
systems that can guarantee the stringent URLLC latency requirements.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.
