An Adaptive Soft Handover Scheme Using Fuzzy Load Balancing for WCDMA Systems
In cellular systems, user distribution variations can cause load imbalance between cells. Embedding a load balancing strategy within the handover scheme means that ensuing traffic congestion can be alleviated by dynamically reallocating load between neighbouring cells. An adaptive soft handover scheme for multimedia cellular communication systems is proposed in this paper, that considers both the cell load factors as well as the pilot channel signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) for soft handovers. By using fuzzy principles, the soft handover thresholds and time hysteresis are adapted dependent upon the loads of the neighbouring cells. Simulation results show that the new algorithm provides improved system performance in terms of a more evenly distributed load, lower blocking probabilities and higher throughput
MIMO CDMA-based Optical SATCOMs: A New Solution
A new scheme for MIMO CDMA-based optical satellite communications (OSATCOMs)
is presented. Three independent problems are described for up-link and down-
link in terms of two distinguished optimization problems. At first, in up-link,
Pulse-width optimization is proposed to reduce dispersions over fibers as the
terrestrial part. This is performed for return-to-zero (RZ) modulation that is
supposed to be used as an example in here. This is carried out by solving the
first optimization problem, while minimizing the probability of overlapping for
the Gaussian pulses that are used to produce RZ. Some constraints are assumed
such as a threshold for the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In down-link,
the second and the third problems are discussed as follows, jointly as a
closed-form solution. Solving the second optimization problem, an objective
function is obtained, namely the MIMO CDMA-based satellite weight-matrix as a
conventional adaptive beam-former. The Satellite link is stablished over flat
un-correlated Nakagami-m/Suzuki fading channels as the second problem. On the
other hand, the mentioned optimization problem is robustly solved as the third
important problem, while considering inter-cell interferences in the multi-cell
scenario. Robust solution is performed due to the partial knowledge of each
cell from the others in which the link capacity is maximized. Analytical
results are conducted to investigate the merit of system.Comment: IEEE PCITC 2015 (15-17 Oct, India
Variable Step Closed Loop Power Control with Space Diversity for Low Elevation Angle High Altitude Platforms Communication Channel [Langkah Variabel Kontrol Daya Loop Tertutup Dengan Keragaman Ruang Untuk Sudut Elevasi Rendah Pada Kanal Komunikasi HAPs]
This paper proposes variable step closed loop power control algorithm combined with space diversity to improve the performance of High Altitude Platforms (HAPs) communication at low elevation angle using Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA). In this contribution, we first develop HAPs channel model which is derived from experimental measurement. From our experiment, we found HAPs channel characteristic can be modeled as a Ricean distribution because the presence of line of sight path. Different elevation angle resulting different K factor value. This value is then used in Signal to Interference Ratio (SIR) based closed loop power control evaluation. The variable step algorithm is simulated under various elevation angles with different speed of mobile user. The performance is presented in terms of user elevation angle, user speed, step size and space diversity order. We found that the performance of variable step closed-loop power control less effective at low elevation angle. However our simulation shows that space diversity is able to improve the performance of closed loop power control for HAPs channel at low elevation angle.*****Kajian ini mengusulkan suatu algoritma kontrol daya langkah variabel loop tertutup dikombinasikan dengan keragaman ruang untuk meningkatkan kinerja komunikasi High Altitude Platforms(HAPs) pada sudut elevasi rendah menggunakan Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA). Kami berkontribusi untuk mengembangkan model kanal HAPs yang berasal dari pengukuran eksperimental sebelumnya. Dari percobaan tersebut, kami menemukan karakteristik kanal HAPs yang dapat dimodelkan sebagai distribusi Ricean karena kehadiran jalur tanpa penghalang. Eksperimen menunjukkan bahwa perbedaan sudut elevasi menghasilkan perbedaan nilai factor K. Nilai ini kemudian digunakan dalam Signal to Interference Ratio (SIR) berbasiskan evaluasi kontrol daya loop tertutup. Algoritma langkah variabel disimulasikan dibawah sudut elevasi yang berbeda dengan kecepatan yang berbeda dari pengguna vobile. Kinerja tersebut disajikan dalam hal sudut elevasi pengguna, kecepatan pengguna, ukuran langkah dan ketertiban ruang keanekaragaman. Kami menemukan bahwa kinerja langkah variabel kontrol daya loop tertutup kurang efektif pada sudut elevasi rendah. Namun simulasi kami menunjukkan bahwa ruang keragaman mampu meningkatkan kinerja kontrol daya loop tertutup untuk kanal HAPs di sudut elevasi rendah
