Performance study of voice over frame relay : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Information Engineering, Massey University, Albany, New Zealand
Frame Relay (FR) represents an important paradigm shift in modern telecommunication. This technology is beginning to evolve from data only application to broad spectrum of multimedia users and potential to provide end users with cost effective transport of voice traffic for intra office communication. In this project the recent development in voice communication over Frame relay is investigated. Simulations were carried out using OPNET, a powerful simulation software. Following the simulation model, a practical design of the LAN-to-LAN connectivity experiment was also done in the Net Lab. From the results of the simulation, Performance measures such as delay, jitter, and throughput are reported. It is evident from the results that real-time voice or video across a frame relay network can provide acceptable performance
Coverage Analysis of Relay Assisted Millimeter Wave Cellular Networks with Spatial Correlation
We propose a novel analytical framework for evaluating the coverage
performance of a millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular network where idle user
equipments (UEs) act as relays. In this network, the base station (BS) adopts
either the direct mode to transmit to the destination UE, or the relay mode if
the direct mode fails, where the BS transmits to the relay UE and then the
relay UE transmits to the destination UE. To address the drastic rotational
movements of destination UEs in practice, we propose to adopt selection
combining at destination UEs. New expression is derived for the
signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) coverage probability of the
network. Using numerical results, we first demonstrate the accuracy of our new
expression. Then we show that ignoring spatial correlation, which has been
commonly adopted in the literature, leads to severe overestimation of the SINR
coverage probability. Furthermore, we show that introducing relays into a
mmWave cellular network vastly improves the coverage performance. In addition,
we show that the optimal BS density maximizing the SINR coverage probability
can be determined by using our analysis

Throughput and Delay Scaling in Supportive Two-Tier Networks
Consider a wireless network that has two tiers with different priorities: a
primary tier vs. a secondary tier, which is an emerging network scenario with
the advancement of cognitive radio technologies. The primary tier consists of
randomly distributed legacy nodes of density , which have an absolute
priority to access the spectrum. The secondary tier consists of randomly
distributed cognitive nodes of density with , which
can only access the spectrum opportunistically to limit the interference to the
primary tier. Based on the assumption that the secondary tier is allowed to
route the packets for the primary tier, we investigate the throughput and delay
scaling laws of the two tiers in the following two scenarios: i) the primary
and secondary nodes are all static; ii) the primary nodes are static while the
secondary nodes are mobile. With the proposed protocols for the two tiers, we
show that the primary tier can achieve a per-node throughput scaling of
in the above two scenarios. In the associated
delay analysis for the first scenario, we show that the primary tier can
achieve a delay scaling of
with . In the second scenario, with two mobility
models considered for the secondary nodes: an i.i.d. mobility model and a
random walk model, we show that the primary tier can achieve delay scaling laws
of and , respectively, where is the random walk
step size. The throughput and delay scaling laws for the secondary tier are
also established, which are the same as those for a stand-alone network.Comment: 13 pages, double-column, 6 figures, accepted for publication in JSAC

Information exchange in randomly deployed dense WSNs with wireless energy harvesting capabilities

Permission from IEEE must be obtained for all other uses, in any current or future media, including reprinting/republishing this material for advertising or promotional purposes, creating new collective works, for resale or redistribution to servers or lists, or reuse of any copyrighted component of this work in other works.As large-scale dense and often randomly deployed wireless sensor networks (WSNs) become widespread, local information exchange between colocated sets of nodes may play a significant role in handling the excessive traffic volume. Moreover, to account for the limited life-span of the wireless devices, harvesting the energy of the network transmissions provides significant benefits to the lifetime of such networks. In this paper, we study the performance of communication in dense networks with wireless energy harvesting (WEH)-enabled sensor nodes. In particular, we examine two different communication scenarios (direct and cooperative) for data exchange and we provide theoretical expressions for the probability of successful communication. Then, considering the importance of lifetime in WSNs, we employ state-of-the-art WEH techniques and realistic energy converters, quantifying the potential energy gains that can be achieved in the network. Our analytical derivations, which are validated by extensive Monte-Carlo simulations, highlight the importance of WEH in dense networks and identify the tradeoffs between the direct and cooperative communication scenarios.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
