Adaptive Resource Allocation Algorithm for 5G Vehicular Cloud Communication

The current resource allocation in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication faces several challenges,such as low user utilization,unbalanced resource allocation,and extended adaptive allocation time.We propose an adaptive allocation algorithm for mobile cloud communication resources in 5G vehicular networks to address these issues.This study analyzes the components of the 5G vehicular network architecture to determine the performance of different components.It is ascertained that the communication modes in 5G vehicular networks for mobile cloud communication include in-band and out-of-band modes.Furthermore,this study analyzes the single-hop and multi-hop modes in mobile cloud communication and calculates the resource transmission rate and bandwidth in different communication modes.The study also determines the scenario of one-way and two-way vehicle lane cloud communication network connectivity,calculates the probability of vehicle network connectivity under different mobile cloud communication radii,and determines the amount of cloud communication resources required by vehicles in different lane scenarios.Based on the communication status of users in 5G vehicular networks,this study calculates the bandwidth and transmission rate of the allocated channels using Shannon’s formula.It determines the adaptive allocation of cloud communication resources,introduces an objective function to obtain the optimal solution after allocation,and completes the adaptive allocation process.The experimental results demonstrate that,with the application of the proposed method,the maximum utilization of user communication resources reaches approximately 99%.The balance coefficient curve approaches 1,and the allocation time remains under 2 s.This indicates that the proposed method has higher adaptive allocation efficiency.

A Review in the Core Technologies of 5G: Device-to-Device Communication, Multi-Access Edge Computing and Network Function Virtualization

5G is a new generation of mobile networking that aims to achieve unparalleled speed and performance. To accomplish this, three technologies, Device-to-Device communication (D2D), multi-access edge computing (MEC) and network function virtualization (NFV) with ClickOS, have been a significant part of 5G, and this paper mainly discusses them. D2D enables direct communication between devices without the relay of base station. In 5G, a two-tier cellular network composed of traditional cellular network system and D2D is an efficient method for realizing high-speed communication. MEC unloads work from end devices and clouds platforms to widespread nodes, and connects the nodes together with outside devices and third-party providers, in order to diminish the overloading effect on any device caused by enormous applications and improve users’ quality of experience (QoE). There is also a NFV method in order to fulfill the 5G requirements. In this part, an optimized virtual machine for middle-boxes named ClickOS is introduced, and it is evaluated in several aspects. Some middle boxes are being implemented in the ClickOS and proved to have outstanding performances.

Design and Implementation of End to End Encrypted Short Message Service (SMS) Using Hybrid Cipher Algorithm

The study on design and implementation of end to end encrypted Short Message Service (SMS) using hybrid cipher algorithm is motivated by high rate of insecurity of data observed during Short Message Service (SMS) on Mobile devices. SMS messages are one of the popular ways of communication. The aim therefore is to design a software for end to end encryption short message service (SMS) that can conceal message while on transit to another mobile device using Hybrid Cipher Algorithm on Android Operating System and implement it for security of mobile SMS. Hybrid encryption incorporates a combination of asymmetric and symmetric encryption to benefit from the strengths of each form of encryption. Various encryption algorithms have been discussed. Secondary sources were employed in gathering useful data. In this research work three methodologies are employed—Structured System Analysis Design Methodology (SSADM), Object Oriented Analysis Design Methodology (OOADM) and prototyping. With the help of the three cryptographic algorithms employed—Message digest 5 (MD5), Blowfish and Rivest-Shamir Adleman (RSA);integrity, confidentiality, authentication and security of messages were achieved. The messages encrypted by developed application are also resistant to brute force attack. The implementing programs were coded in Java.

Structure and performance analysis of fusion positioning system with a single 5G station and a single GNSS satellite

NaGlobal vigation Satellite System(GNSS)positioning technology is widely used for its high precision,global,and all-weather service.However,in complex environments such as urban canyons,GNSS performance is often degraded due to signal occlusion and even fails to achieve positioning due to the insufficient visible satellites.Because of the characteristics of large band-width,low latency,and high Base Station(BS)density,the fifth-Generation mobile communication(5G)technology has gradually become a trend for positioning in cities while offering traditional communication service.To supply the communication demands of the User Equipment(UE),only one BS is usually considered to establish a connection with the UE during the BS construction.However,the positioning accuracy with a single BS in urban canyons will be significantly reduced.To further improve the positioning accuracy in such extreme scenarios,this paper proposes a simplified 5G/GNSS fusion positioning system architecture using observations from only a 5G BS and a GNSS satellite.In this system,the GNSS receiver is mounted on the 5G BS,and the measurements provided by the receiver are used to form the differential code and complete the position estimation.The positioning mathematical models of the system based on the original code and differential code are derived.Then,the impacts of the measurements noise and the time synchronization error on the positioning accuracy are analyzed theoretically.Finally,the positioning performance is investigated by a set of simulation experiments.Numerical results show that under the existing 5G measurement noise and 2 m’s code measurement noise,the improvement of the differential code based fusion positioning compared with the 5G-only positioning is more than 32%,which is also about 6%higher than the original code based fusion positioning.Besides,this improvement is not affected by the time synchronization error between the BS and the GNSS satellite.

Beam steering application for W-band data links with moving targets in 5G wireless networks

Abstract:Ubiquitous broadband Internet access is one of the major goals of the next generation of wireless communications.However,there are still some locations where this is diffcult to achieve.This is the case on moving vehicles and,particularly,on trains.Among the possible solutions to this problem,RoF(Radio-over-Fiber)architectures have been proposed as low-latency,cost-e ective candidates.Two elements are introduced to extend the RoF approach.First,the carrier frequency is raised into the W-band(75-110 GHz)to increase the available capacity.Second,a mechanical beam-steering solution based on a Stewart platform is adopted for the transmitter antenna to allow it to follow a moving receiver along a known path,thereby enhancing the coverage area.The performance of a system transmitting a 2.5 Gbit/s non-return-to-zero signal generated by photonic up-conversion over a wireless link is evaluated in terms of real-time BER(Bit Error Rate)measurements.The receiver is situated in di erent positions,and the orientation of the transmitter is changed accordingly.Values below the forward error correction limit for 7%overhead are obtained over a range of 60 cm around a center point situated 2 m away from the transmitter.

Dynamic resource allocation schemes for eMBB and URLLC services in 5G wireless networks

The fifth generation(5G)of wireless networks features three core use cases,namely ultra-reliable and low latency communications(URLLC),massive machine type communications(mMTC),and enhanced mobile broadband(eMBB).These use cases co-exist in many practical scenarios and compete for the same set of time and frequency resources,resulting in a natural trade-off in their performance.In this paper,a network supporting both URLLC and eMBB modes of operation is studied.To guarantee the ultra low latency requirement of URLLC,a dynamic resource allocation scheme indicated by a two-dimensional bitmap is proposed.This approach is capable to achieve finer granularity as well as lower false cancellation rate compared to the state-of-the-art methods.A novel power control and indication method is also proposed to dynamically provide different power control parameters to the user equipment(UE),while guaranteeing the reliability requirement of URLLC and minimizing the impact to eMBB.In addition,we devise a dynamic selection mechanism(DSM)to accommodate diverse scenarios,which is empowered with load prediction to become more intelligent.Our extensive system-level simulation results for eMBB-URLLC co-existence scenarios showcase that the perceived throughput of eMBB UEs is increased by 45.3%,while about 13.3% more UEs are enjoying URLLC services with at most 84% transmit power savings compared to the state-of-the-art methods.
