Feasibility Study of Enabling V2X Communications by LTE-Uu Radio Interface
Compared with the legacy wireless networks, the next generation of wireless
network targets at different services with divergent QoS requirements, ranging
from bandwidth consuming video service to moderate and low date rate machine
type services, and supporting as well as strict latency requirements. One
emerging new service is to exploit wireless network to improve the efficiency
of vehicular traffic and public safety. However, the stringent packet
end-to-end (E2E) latency and ultra-low transmission failure rates pose
challenging requirements on the legacy networks. In other words, the next
generation wireless network needs to support ultra-reliable low latency
communications (URLLC) involving new key performance indicators (KPIs) rather
than the conventional metric, such as cell throughput in the legacy systems. In
this paper, a feasibility study on applying today's LTE network infrastructure
and LTE-Uu air interface to provide the URLLC type of services is performed,
where the communication takes place between two traffic participants (e.g.,
vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian). To carry out this study, an
evaluation methodology of the cellular vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication
is proposed, where packet E2E latency and successful transmission rate are
considered as the key performance indicators (KPIs). Then, we describe the
simulation assumptions for the evaluation. Based on them, simulation results
are depicted that demonstrate the performance of the LTE network in fulfilling
new URLLC requirements. Moreover, sensitivity analysis is also conducted
regarding how to further improve system performance, in order to enable new
emerging URLLC services.Comment: Accepted by IEEE/CIC ICCC 201

Link level modelling techniques for analysing the configuration of link adaptation algorithms in mobile radio networks
The operation of Link Adaptation algorithms is based on channel quality estimates. It is therefore important to analyse the performance of such algorithms with link level models that properly capture the channel conditions and dynamics. Previous research [1] concluded that the use of simple link level models does not give an accurate prediction of the estimated performance of Link Adaptation algorithms. Following this previous work, this paper shows that the link level model considered for the study of Link Adaptation algorithms can also influence the decisions regarding the optimum configuration of the algorithm
Routing efficiency in wireless sensor-actor networks considering semi-automated architecture
Wireless networks have become increasingly popular and advances in wireless communications and electronics have enabled the development of different kind of networks such as Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs), Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and Wireless Sensor-Actor Networks (WSANs). These networks have different kind of characteristics, therefore new protocols that fit their features should be developed. We have developed a simulation system to test MANETs, WSNs and WSANs. In this paper, we consider the performance behavior of two protocols: AODV and DSR using TwoRayGround model and Shadowing model for lattice and random topologies. We study the routing efficiency and compare the performance of two protocols for different scenarios. By computer simulations, we found that for large number of nodes when we used TwoRayGround model and random topology, the DSR protocol has a better performance. However, when the transmission rate is higher, the routing efficiency parameter is unstable.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
Performance evaluation of wireless sensor networks for mobile event and mobile sink
Extending lifetime and energy efficiency are important objectives and challenges in-Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In large scale WSNs, when the nodes are near to the sink they consume much more energy than the nodes far from the sink. In our previous work, we considered that the sink node was stationary and only event node was moving in the observation field. In this work, we consider both cases when the sink node and event node are moving. For the simulations, we use TwoRayGround and Shadowing radio models, lattice topology and AODV protocol. We compare the simulation results for the cases when the sink node and event node are mobile and stationary. The simulation results have shown that the goodput of TwoRayGround is better than Shadowing in case of mobile event, but the depletion of Shadowing is better than TwoRayGround in case of mobile event. The goodput in case of mobile sink is better than stationary sink when the transmission rate is lower than 10pps. For TwoRayGround radio model, the depletion in case of mobile sink is better than stationary sink when the number of nodes is increasedPeer ReviewedPostprint (published version
