Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC) using Interface Diversity
An important ingredient of the future 5G systems will be Ultra-Reliable
Low-Latency Communication (URLLC). A way to offer URLLC without intervention in
the baseband/PHY layer design is to use interface diversity and integrate
multiple communication interfaces, each interface based on a different
technology. In this work, we propose to use coding to seamlessly distribute
coded payload and redundancy data across multiple available communication
interfaces. We formulate an optimization problem to find the payload allocation
weights that maximize the reliability at specific target latency values. In
order to estimate the performance in terms of latency and reliability of such
an integrated communication system, we propose an analysis framework that
combines traditional reliability models with technology-specific latency
probability distributions. Our model is capable to account for failure
correlation among interfaces/technologies. By considering different scenarios,
we find that optimized strategies can in some cases significantly outperform
strategies based on -out-of- erasure codes, where the latter do not
account for the characteristics of the different interfaces. The model has been
validated through simulation and is supported by experimental results.Comment: Accepted for IEEE Transactions on Communication
