In fog, we often repeat the procedure of placing services because of the geographical distribution of mobile users. We may not expect a fixed demand and supply relationship between users and service providers since users always prefer nearby service with less time delay and transmission consumption. That is, a plug-and-play service mode is what we need in fog. In this paper, we put forward a dynamic placement strategy for fog service to guarantee the normal service provision and optimize the Quality of Service (QoS). The simulation results show that our strategy can achieve better performance under metrics including energy consumption and end-to-end latency. Moreover, we design a real Plug-and-Play Fog (PnPF) based on Raspberry Pi and OpenWrt to provide fog services for wireless multimedia networks.展开更多

It consists of remote access units and a central access/switching device. At the subscriber side, the ISDN PRI interface operating at E1 line rate (2.048Mb/s) is provided directly to the termination. When the transmission medium is double of twisted pair cable which has the specification of 0.6mm/22AWG, the longest transmission distance can come to 2.6km. One remote access unit has the capacity of equivalent accessing port of 256 E1s, and the typical capacity for whole THMAS 1 system is 30720 E1 ports. Optical fiber transmission link is adopted between the remote access unit and the central device, and the peak transmission distance under no relay can reach out 60km. To the network direction, a standard ATM UNI interface at STM 1 rate (155.520Mb/s) is designed, so an ISDN/ATM hybrid access system can be constructed. THMAS 1 has the capability of n× 64kb/s (1≤n≤30) ISDN time slots conformance switching, and has the features of small volume, low power consumption, low cost, flexible to reconstructing the network as well as wide coverage of geographical access space. So it is especially suitable for the real time interactive remote teaching.展开更多

There are very few people do the work extending to the links associating with handoff in the whole network. This paper develops the algorithms of transmission capacity administration on the link connecting the base station and base station controller (including the air interface of the base station) and the VPs among the base station controllers in the wired/ wireless ATM networks, which adapt to the traffic state of each service in every cellular cell to allocate (provision) transmission capacity and to reserve handoff guard capacity on these links, respectively. By simulating and analyzing the performance of the algorithm, it is found that it does well for the multimedia communication in which the transmission capacity requirement of each service may be widely different, so that the network bandwidth resource can be used efficiently.展开更多

In order to reduce the computational complexity for MD optimization, a time domain CFOs and CIRs estimation algorithm over the OFDMA based wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSN) is proposed in this paper. In this algorithm, the receiver station can decouple the signal from every node by correlation based on specially designed training sequences, so that the MD optimization problem is simplified to an 1-D optimal problem. It is proved that the multiple CFOs can be identified from the correlation result using the phase shift of the consecutive training se- quences. Based on the CFOs estimation result, the CIRs can then he estimated according to the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion. The theoretic analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively decouple the signal from different user nodes and the bit error rate (BER) per- formance curves are close to the ideal estimation when the user number is not large.展开更多

In previous research on Quality of Service (QoS) for cellular networks especially for handling handoff connections, the design was based on a flat 2D hexagon cells. However, in reality Base Station antenna coverage is in a 3D space and there exists a blind spot;the area which is just above and bellow the radiated antenna. In this paper we introduce the concept of Blind Spot (BS) in which there is no signals to initiate a call or accepting a handoff one. In BS, the signal power equal zero. Even if there is enough bandwidth to initiate or accept a handoff call, it will be blocked or dropped respectively. We present an implementation of Static Borrowing Scheme (SBS) and we extend the dynamic-rate based borrowing scheme [1] into 3-Dimentional structure and call it 3-Dimensional Dynamic Based Borrowing Scheme (3D DBBS). The proposed new technique for resource sharing is to ensure the continuity for both originating and handoff connections in 3-D cellular networks based on Dynamic-Based Borrowing Scheme (3D BBS). This technique aims to minimize the blocking probability of the originating calls by minimizing the dropping probability of the handoff requests and maximizing the channel utilization. The results revealed that 3D DBBS outperformed the static based schemes by 5% on average even when the blind spot of the base station antenna is taken into consideration. When moving to a 3D space, the results of the simulation showed the 3D DBBS outperformed the static scheme by 2% on average. As a result, considering nodes in a 3D space will have better QoS guarantee as the blocking and dropping probabilities are decreased. Thus, the bandwidth utilization is increased.展开更多

Among the various scientific aspects involved in the home monitoring field, we are interested in the study and the proposal of a solution allowing distributed sensor nodes to communicate with each other in an optimal way adapted to the specific application constraints. More precisely, we want to build a wireless network that consists of several short range sensor nodes exchanging data between them according to a communication protocol at MAC (Medium Access Control) level. This protocol must be able to optimize energy consumption, transmission time and loss of information. To achieve this objective, we have analyzed the advantages and the limitations of WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) technologies and communication protocols currently used in relation to the requirements of our application. Then we proposed a deterministic, adaptive and energy saving medium access method based on the IEEE 802.15.4 physical layer and a mesh topology. It ensures the message delivery time with strongly limited collision risk due to the spatial reuse of medium in the two-hop neighbourhood. This proposal was characterized by modelling and simulation using OPNET network simulator. Finally we implemented the proposed mechanisms on hardware devices and deployed a sensors network in real situation to verify the accuracy of the model and evaluate the proposal according to different test configurations.展开更多
