GAME THEORETIC APPROACH TO RADIO RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ON THE REVERSE LINK FOR MULTI-RATE CDMA WIRELESS DATA NETWORKS
This work deals with efficient power and rate assignment to mobile stations (MSs) involved in bursty data transmission in cellular CDMA networks. Power control in the current CDMA standards is based on a fixed target signal quality called signal to interference ratio (SIR). The target SIR represents a predefined frame error rate (FER). This approach is inefficient for data-MSs because a fixed target SIR can limit the MS's throughput. Power control should thus provide dynamic target SIRs instead of a fixed target SIR. In the research literature, the power control problem has been modeled using game theory. A limitation of the current literature is that in order to implement the algorithms, each MS needs to know information such as path gains and transmission rates of all other MSs. Fast rate control schemes in the evolving cellular data systems such as cdma2000-1x-EV assign transmission rates to MSs using a probabilistic approach. The limitation here is that the radio resources can be either under or over-utilized. Further, all MSs are not assigned the same rates. In the schemes proposed in the literature, only few MSs, which have the best channel conditions, obtain all radio resources. In this dissertation, we address the power control issue by moving the computation of the Nash equilibrium from each MS to the base station (BS). We also propose equal radio resource allocation for all MSs under the constraint that only the maximum allowable radio resources are used in a cell. This dissertation addresses the problem of how to efficiently assign power and rate to MSs based on dynamic target SIRs for bursty transmissions. The proposed schemes in this work maximize the throughput of each data-MS while still providing equal allocation of radio resources to all MSs and achieving full radio resource utilization in each cell. The proposed schemes result in power and rate control algorithms that however require some assistance from the BS. The performance evaluation and comparisons with cdma2000-1x-Evolution Data Only (1x-EV-DO) show that the proposed schemes can provide better effective rates (rates after error) than the existing schemes
Soft handover issues in radio resource management for 3G WCDMA networks
PhDMobile terminals allow users to access services while on the move. This unique
feature has driven the rapid growth in the mobile network industry, changing it from a
new technology into a massive industry within less than two decades.
Handover is the essential functionality for dealing with the mobility of the mobile
users. Compared with the conventional hard handover employed in the GSM mobile
networks, the soft handover used in IS-95 and being proposed for 3G has better
performance on both link and system level.
Previous work on soft handover has led to several algorithms being proposed and
extensive research has been conducted on the performance analysis and parameters
optimisation of these algorithms. Most of the previous analysis focused on the uplink
direction. However, in future mobile networks, the downlink is more likely to be the
bottleneck of the system capacity because of the asymmetric nature of new services,
such as Internet traffic.
In this thesis, an in-depth study of the soft handover effects on the downlink
direction of WCDMA networks is carried out, leading to a new method of optimising
soft handover for maximising the downlink capacity and a new power control
approach
CD-MA-PMR network planning and optimization in İstanbul
Cataloged from PDF version of article.The aim of this work is to design a complete PMR (Professional Mobile Radio)
network based on CDMA 450 in Istanbul metropolitan region. Coverage
and capacity analysis are performed by the developed simulation software tool.
Trade off between several system parameters such as quality of service, user mobility,
traffic distribution, data rate and bandwidth are considered to optimize
the capacity and coverage of the network. Since, managing system interference
by precise power control is a very critical concept for CDMA; forward and reverse
link interference analysis, and their effects are also studied. Coverage and
handoff areas are shown on the map by the aid of GIS (Geographical Information
Systems) tool. System capacity and coverage are presented as the main results
of the proposed network.Kızılırmak, Refik ÇağlarM.S
Performance of hard handoff in 1xev-do rev. a systems
1x Evolution-Data Optimized Revision A (1xEV-DO Rev. A) is a cellular
communications standard that introduces key enhancements to the high data rate packet
switched 1xEV-DO Release 0 standard. The enhancements are driven by the increasing
demand on some applications that are delay sensitive and require symmetric data rates
on the uplink and the downlink. Some examples of such applications being video
telephony and voice over internet protocol (VoIP).
The handoff operation is critical for delay sensitive applications because the
mobile station (MS) is not supposed to lose service for long periods of time. Therefore
seamless server selection is used in Rev. A systems. This research analyzes the
performance of this handoff technique. A theoretical approach is presented to calculate
the slot error probability (SEP). The approach enables evaluating the effects of filtering,
hysteresis as well as the system introduced delay to handoff execution. Unlike previous
works, the model presented in this thesis considers multiple base stations (BS) and
accounts for correlation of shadow fading affecting different signal powers received
from different BSs. The theoretical results are then verified over ranges of parameters of
practical interest using simulations, which are also used to evaluate the packet error rate
(PER) and the number of handoffs per second. Results show that the SEP gives a good indication about the PER. Results also
show that when considering practical handoff delays, moderately large filter constants
are more efficient than smaller ones

A network mobility management architecture for a heteregeneous network environment
Network mobility management enables mobility of personal area networks and vehicular networks across heterogeneous access networks using a Mobile Router. This dissertation presents a network mobility management architecture for minimizing the impact of handoffs on the communications of nodes in the mobile network. The architecture addresses mobility in legacy networks without infrastructure support, but can also exploit infrastructure support for improved handoff performance. Further, the proposed architecture increases the efficiency of communications of nodes in the mobile network with counter parts in the fixed network through the use of caching and route optimization. The performance and costs of the proposed architecture are evaluated through empirical and numerical analysis. The analysis shows the feasibility of the architecture in the networks of today and in those of the near future.Verkkojen liikkuuvudenhallinta mahdollistaa henkilökohtaisten ja ajoneuvoihin asennettujen verkkojen liikkuvuuden heterogeenisessä verkkoympäristössä käyttäen liikkuvaa reititintä. Tämä väitöskirja esittää uuden arkkitehtuurin verkkojen liikkuvuudenhallintaan, joka minimoi verkonvaihdon vaikutuksen päätelaitteiden yhteyksiin.
Vanhoissa verkoissa, joiden infrastruktuuri ei tue verkkojen liikkuvuutta, verkonvaihdos täytyy hallita liikkuvassa reitittimessa. Standardoitu verkkojen liikkuvuudenhallintaprotokolla NEMO mahdollistaa tämän käyttäen ankkurisolmua kiinteässä verkossa pakettien toimittamiseen päätelaitteiden kommunikaatiokumppaneilta liikkuvalle reitittimelle. NEMO:ssa verkonvaihdos aiheuttaa käynnissä olevien yhteyksien keskeytymisen yli sekunnin mittaiseksi ajaksi, aiheuttaen merkittävää häiriötä viestintäsovelluksille.
Esitetyssä arkkitehtuurissa verkonvaihdon vaikutus minimoidaan varustamalla liikkuva reititin kahdella radiolla. Käyttäen kahta radiota liikkuva reititin pystyy suorittamaan verkonvaihdon keskeyttämättä päätelaitteiden yhteyksiä, mikäli verkonvaihtoon on riittävästi aikaa. Käytettävissa oleva aika riippuu liikkuvan reitittimen nopeudesta ja radioverkon rakenteesta. Arkkitehtuuri osaa myös hyödyntää infrastruktuurin tukea saumattomaan verkonvaihtoon. Verkkoinfrastruktuurin tuki nopeuttaa verkonvaihdosprosessia, kasvattaenmaksimaalista verkonvaihdos tahtia. Tällöin liikkuva reitin voi käyttää lyhyen kantaman radioverkkoja, joiden solun säde on yli 80m, ajonopeuksilla 90m/s asti ilman, että verkonvaihdos keskeyttää päätelaitteiden yhteyksiä.
Lisäksi ehdotettu arkkitehtuuri tehostaa kommunikaatiota käyttäen cache-palvelimia liikkuvassa ja kiinteässä verkossa ja optimoitua reititystä liikkuvien päätelaitteiden ja kiinteässä verkossa olevien kommunikaatiosolmujen välillä. Cache-palvelinarkkitehtuuri hyödyntää vapaita radioresursseja liikkuvan verkon cache-palvelimen välimuistin päivittämiseen. Heterogeenisessä verkkoympäristossä cache-palvelimen päivitys suoritetaan lyhyen kantaman laajakaistaisia radioverkkoja käyttäen. Liikkuvan reitittimen siirtyessä laajakaistaisen radioverkon peitealueen ulkopuolelle päätelaitteille palvellaan sisältöä, kuten www sivuja tai videota cache-palvelimelta, säästäen laajemman kantaman radioverkon rajoitetumpia resursseja.
Arkkitehtuurissa käytetään optimoitua reititystä päätelaitteiden ja niiden kommunikaatiokumppaneiden välillä. Optimoitu reititysmekanismi vähentää liikkuvuudenhallintaan käytettyjen protokollien langattoman verkon resurssien kulutusta. Lisäksi optimoitu reititysmekanismi tehostaa pakettien reititystä käyttäen suorinta reittiä kommunikaatiosolmujen välillä.
Esitetyn arkkitehtuurin suorituskyky arvioidaan empiirisen ja numeerisen analyysin avulla. Analyysi arvioi arkkitehtuurin suorituskykyä ja vertaa sitä aikaisemmin ehdotettuihin ratkaisuihin ja osoittaa arkkitehtuurin soveltuvan nykyisiin ja lähitulevaisuuden langattomiin verkkoihin.reviewe
Fuzzy Assisted Handoff Algorithm for Micro and Macro Cellular System
Handoff is an essential part of any Mobile Communication Network. Efficient handoff algorithms provide cost-effective way for enhancing the capacity and QOS of cellular system. The work reported here in presents multi-criteria based hard handoff algorithm for micro and macro-cellular architecture. Fuzzy technique has been used as optimization engine. The fuzzy handoff algorithm based on Received Signal Strength (RSS), absolute threshold value, hysteresis level, slope ratios and speed of Mobile Terminal (MT) have been previously developed for conventional cellular networks. In this work the handoff algorithm has been improved by considering two new parameter, signalling delay and angle of motion of MT along with velocity as our input criteria. Two fuzzy models named Mamdani and Sugeno have been used for processing the input criteria. Further, ANFIS has also been used to tune the Sugeno model for parameter adjustment. The proposed fuzzy inference scheme uses triangular and trapezoidal membership function for fuzzification. The types of defuzzification method used are centriod and weighted average formula for Mamdani and Sugeno model respectively. Extensive simulation analysis has been used to validate the proposed technique. The results show that fuzzy is a viable option for handoff
