A Hybrid Model to Extend Vehicular Intercommunication V2V through D2D Architecture
In the recent years, many solutions for Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V)
communication were proposed to overcome failure problems (also known as dead
ends). This paper proposes a novel framework for V2V failure recovery using
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications. Based on the unified Intelligent
Transportation Systems (ITS) architecture, LTE-based D2D mechanisms can improve
V2V dead ends failure recovery delays. This new paradigm of hybrid V2V-D2D
communications overcomes the limitations of traditional V2V routing techniques.
According to NS2 simulation results, the proposed hybrid model decreases the
end to end delay (E2E) of messages delivery. A complete comparison of different
D2D use cases (best & worst scenarios) is presented to show the enhancements
brought by our solution compared to traditional V2V techniques.Comment: 6 page
Mobile Broadband Scaling and Enhancement for Fast Moving Trains
Internet is an important part of our life, whether traveling or at home. The broadband services available at home are reliable and are usually at constant speed. The people traveling especially in fast moving trains are at higher mobility and may be moving in areas of less connectivity, and providing a reliable service to them is a challenging task. One possible solution to this is to provide communication through an on-board Wi-Fi, which takes services from a central Wi-Fi situated in the middle of the train, which is connected to cellular radio service long-term evolution for railways. The network consists of LTE-R which is dedicated for railway communication only, a public mobile network, which supports LTE-R in the areas of no coverage and high traffic conditions and a public safety network in emergency conditions. The work is verified with the help of simulations on MATLAB, considering different traffic scenarios. The BSs placed at a distance of 2.5 Km and antenna height used is 45Â m are equipped with 3G and 4G interfaces, a universal mobile telecommunications services (UMTS) and radio access network (RAN). The UMTS interface is used for voice services and handover when spectrum available in the next cell is less
Coverage and Deployment Analysis of Narrowband Internet of Things in the Wild
Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is gaining momentum as a promising
technology for massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC). Given that its
deployment is rapidly progressing worldwide, measurement campaigns and
performance analyses are needed to better understand the system and move toward
its enhancement. With this aim, this paper presents a large scale measurement
campaign and empirical analysis of NB-IoT on operational networks, and
discloses valuable insights in terms of deployment strategies and radio
coverage performance. The reported results also serve as examples showing the
potential usage of the collected dataset, which we make open-source along with
a lightweight data visualization platform.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Communications Magazine (Internet of
