Green Hybrid Satellite Terrestrial Networks: Fundamental Trade-Off Analysis
With the worldwide evolution of 4G generation and revolution in the information and communications technology(ICT) field to meet the exponential increase of mobile data traffic in the 2020 era, the hybrid satellite and terrestrial network based on the soft defined features is proposed from a perspective of 5G. In this paper, an end-to-end architecture of hybrid satellite and terrestrial network under the control and user Plane (C/U) split concept is studied and the performances are analysed based on stochastic geometry. The relationship between spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE) is investigated, taking consideration of overhead costs, transmission and circuit power, backhaul of gateway (GW), and density of small cells. Numerical results show that, by optimizing the key parameters, the hybrid satellite and terrestrial network can achieve nearly 90% EE gain with only 3% SE loss in relative dense networks, and achieve both higher EE and SE gain (20% and 5% respectively) in sparse networks toward the future 5G green communication networks
HARQ Feedback in Spectrum Sharing Networks
This letter studies the throughput and the outage probability of spectrum
sharing networks utilizing hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback. We
focus on the repetition time diversity and the incremental redundancy HARQ
protocols where the results are obtained for both continuous and bursting
communication models. The channel data transmission efficiency is investigated
in the presence of both secondary user peak transmission power and primary user
received interference power constraints. Finally, we evaluate the effect of
secondary-primary channel state information imperfection on the performance of
the secondary channel. Simulation results show that, while the throughput is
not necessarily increased by HARQ, substantial outage probability reduction is
achieved in all conditions.Comment: Published in IEEE Communications Letter
Hybrid game approach‐based channel congestion control for the Internet of Vehicles
Communications between the Internet of Vehicles in smart cities helps increase the awareness and safety among drivers. However, the channel congestion problem is considered as a key challenge for the communication networks due to continuing collection and exchange of traffic information in dense environments. The channel congestion problem degrades the efficiency and reliability of the ad hoc network. Therefore, the adaptation of the data rate and power control is considered as one of the effective solutions to mitigate channel congestion. This paper develops a new hybrid game transmission rate and power channel congestion control approach on the Internet of Vehicle networks where the nodes play as greedy opponents demanding high information rates with the maximum power level. Furthermore, the existence of a Nash equilibrium, which is the optimal information rate and power transmission for every vehicle, is established. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach enhances the network performance by an overall percentage of 42.27%, 43.94% and 47.66% regarding of channel busy time, messages loss and data collision as compared to others. This increases the awareness and performance of the vehicular communication network
Multimedia Content Distribution in Hybrid Wireless Networks using Weighted Clustering
Fixed infrastructured networks naturally support centralized approaches for
group management and information provisioning. Contrary to infrastructured
networks, in multi-hop ad-hoc networks each node acts as a router as well as
sender and receiver. Some applications, however, requires hierarchical
arrangements that-for practical reasons-has to be done locally and
self-organized. An additional challenge is to deal with mobility that causes
permanent network partitioning and re-organizations. Technically, these
problems can be tackled by providing additional uplinks to a backbone network,
which can be used to access resources in the Internet as well as to inter-link
multiple ad-hoc network partitions, creating a hybrid wireless network. In this
paper, we present a prototypically implemented hybrid wireless network system
optimized for multimedia content distribution. To efficiently manage the ad-hoc
communicating devices a weighted clustering algorithm is introduced. The
proposed localized algorithm deals with mobility, but does not require
geographical information or distances.Comment: 2nd ACM Workshop on Wireless Multimedia Networking and Performance

Information Theoretic Operating Regimes of Large Wireless Networks
In analyzing the point-to-point wireless channel, insights about two
qualitatively different operating regimes--bandwidth- and power-limited--have
proven indispensable in the design of good communication schemes. In this
paper, we propose a new scaling law formulation for wireless networks that
allows us to develop a theory that is analogous to the point-to-point case. We
identify fundamental operating regimes of wireless networks and derive
architectural guidelines for the design of optimal schemes.
Our analysis shows that in a given wireless network with arbitrary size,
area, power, bandwidth, etc., there are three parameters of importance: the
short-distance SNR, the long-distance SNR, and the power path loss exponent of
the environment. Depending on these parameters we identify four qualitatively
different regimes. One of these regimes is especially interesting since it is
fundamentally a consequence of the heterogeneous nature of links in a network
and does not occur in the point-to-point case; the network capacity is {\em
both} power and bandwidth limited. This regime has thus far remained hidden due
to the limitations of the existing formulation. Existing schemes, either
multihop transmission or hierarchical cooperation, fail to achieve capacity in
this regime; we propose a new hybrid scheme that achieves capacity.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figures, to appear in IEEE Transactions on Information
