To capture the characteristics of varying rate,interference, and routing in wireless transmission channels, the concepts of equivalent delay (ED) and networked condition index (NCI)are introduced. Also, the analytic lower and upper bounds of EDs are obtained. Furthermore, we model the WNCS as a multicontroller switched system (MSS) under consideration of EDs and loss index in the wireless transmission. Sufficient stability condition of the closed-loop WNCS and corresponding dynamic state feedback controllers are derived in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI).Numerical results show the validity and advantage of our proposed control strategies.展开更多

In this study, system logs from two universities, Dartmouth College and Shanghai Jiao Tong University(SJTU), were mined and analyzed. Every user's log was represented by a user profile. A novel weighted social similarity was proposed to quantify the resemblance of users considering influence of location visits. Based on the similarity, an unsupervised learning method was applied to cluster users. Though environment parameters are different, two universities both form many social groups with Pareto distribution of similarity and exponential distribution of group sizes. These findings are very important to the research of wireless network and social network .展开更多

In FL, participating devices iteratively update the local models based on their own data and contribute to the global training by uploading mod?el updates until the training converges. Therefore, the computation capabilities of mobile de?vices can be utilized and the data privacy can be preserved. However, deploying FL in re?source-constrained wireless networks encounters several challenges, including the limited energy of mobile devices, weak onboard computing capability, and scarce wireless band?width. To address these challenges, recent solutions have been proposed to maximize the convergence rate or minimize the energy consumption under heterogeneous constraints. In this overview, we first introduce the backgrounds and fundamentals of FL. Then, the key challenges in deploying FL in wireless networks are discussed, and several existing solu?tions are reviewed. Finally, we highlight the open issues and future research directions in FL scheduling.展开更多

文摘It is a hot issue in communication research field to select the best network for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks(HWNs),and it is also a difficult problem to reduce the handoff number of vertical handoff.In order to solve this problem,the paper proposes a multiple attribute network selection algorithm based on Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)and synergetic theory.The algorithm applies synergetics to network selection,considering the candidate network as a compound system composed of multiple attribute subsystems,and combines the subsystem order degree with AHP weight to obtain entropy of the compound system,which is opposite the synergy degree of a network system.The greater the synergy degree,the better the network performance.The algorithm takes not only the coordination of objective attributes but also Quality of Service(QoS)requirements into consideration,ensuring that users select the network with overall good performance.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the handoff number and provide uses with satisfactory QoS according to different services.

文摘In this paper, we apply adaptive coded modulation (ACM) schemes to a wireless networked control system (WNCS)to improve the energy efficiency and increase the data rate over a fading channel. To capture the characteristics of varying rate,interference, and routing in wireless transmission channels, the concepts of equivalent delay (ED) and networked condition index (NCI)are introduced. Also, the analytic lower and upper bounds of EDs are obtained. Furthermore, we model the WNCS as a multicontroller switched system (MSS) under consideration of EDs and loss index in the wireless transmission. Sufficient stability condition of the closed-loop WNCS and corresponding dynamic state feedback controllers are derived in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI).Numerical results show the validity and advantage of our proposed control strategies.

文摘Dynamic spectrum sharing and cognitive radio networks were proposed to enhance the Radio Frequency(RF)spectrum utilization.However,there are several challenges to realize them in real systems,such as sensing uncertainty causing issues to licensed users,business models for licensed service providers.Wireless virtualization is regarded as a technology that leverages service level agreements to sublease unused or underutilized RF spectrum that addresses aforementioned issues and helps to significantly enhance the utilization of the RF spectrum,offer improved coverage and capacity of networks,enhance network security and reduce energy consumption.With wireless virtualization,wireless networks'physical substrate is shared and reconfigured dynamically between virtual wireless networks through Mobile Virtual Network Operations(MVNOs).Wireless virtualization with dynamic configurable features of Wireless Infrastructure Providers(WIPs),virtualized wireless networks are vulnerable to a multitude of attacks,including jamming attacks and eavesdropping attacks.This paper investigates a means of defense through the employment of coalition game theory when jammers try to degrade the signal quality of legitimate users,and eavesdroppers aim to reduce secrecy rates.Specifically,we consider a virtual wireless network where MVNO users'job is to improve their Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio(SINR)while the jammers target to collectively enhance their Jammer Received Signal Strength(JRSS),and an eavesdropper's goal is to reduce the overall secrecy rate.Numerical results have demonstrated that the proposed game strategies are effective(in terms of data rate,secrecy rate and latency)against such attackers compared to the traditional approaches.

文摘With the popularity of wireless networks and the prevalence of personal mobile computing devices, understanding the characteristic of wireless network users is of great significance to the network performance. In this study, system logs from two universities, Dartmouth College and Shanghai Jiao Tong University(SJTU), were mined and analyzed. Every user's log was represented by a user profile. A novel weighted social similarity was proposed to quantify the resemblance of users considering influence of location visits. Based on the similarity, an unsupervised learning method was applied to cluster users. Though environment parameters are different, two universities both form many social groups with Pareto distribution of similarity and exponential distribution of group sizes. These findings are very important to the research of wireless network and social network .
文摘The convenience of availing quality services at affordable costs anytime and anywhere makes mobile technology very popular among users.Due to this popularity,there has been a huge rise in mobile data volume,applications,types of services,and number of customers.Furthermore,due to the COVID-19 pandemic,the worldwide lockdown has added fuel to this increase as most of our professional and commercial activities are being done online from home.This massive increase in demand for multi-class services has posed numerous challenges to wireless network frameworks.The services offered through wireless networks are required to support this huge volume of data and multiple types of traffic,such as real-time live streaming of videos,audios,text,images etc.,at a very high bit rate with a negligible delay in transmission and permissible vehicular speed of the customers.Next-generation wireless networks(NGWNs,i.e.5G networks and beyond)are being developed to accommodate the service qualities mentioned above and many more.However,achieving all the desired service qualities to be incorporated into the design of the 5G network infrastructure imposes large challenges for designers and engineers.It requires the analysis of a huge volume of network data(structured and unstructured)received or collected from heterogeneous devices,applications,services,and customers and the effective and dynamic management of network parameters based on this analysis in real time.In the ever-increasing network heterogeneity and complexity,machine learning(ML)techniques may become an efficient tool for effectively managing these issues.In recent days,the progress of artificial intelligence and ML techniques has grown interest in their application in the networking domain.This study discusses current wireless network research,brief discussions on ML methods that can be effectively applied to the wireless networking domain,some tools available to support and customise efficient mobile system design,and some unresolved issues for future research directions.

文摘Due to the increasing need for massive data analysis and machine learning model training at the network edge, as well as the rising concerns about data privacy, a new distrib?uted training framework called federated learning (FL) has emerged and attracted much at?tention from both academia and industry. In FL, participating devices iteratively update the local models based on their own data and contribute to the global training by uploading mod?el updates until the training converges. Therefore, the computation capabilities of mobile de?vices can be utilized and the data privacy can be preserved. However, deploying FL in re?source-constrained wireless networks encounters several challenges, including the limited energy of mobile devices, weak onboard computing capability, and scarce wireless band?width. To address these challenges, recent solutions have been proposed to maximize the convergence rate or minimize the energy consumption under heterogeneous constraints. In this overview, we first introduce the backgrounds and fundamentals of FL. Then, the key challenges in deploying FL in wireless networks are discussed, and several existing solu?tions are reviewed. Finally, we highlight the open issues and future research directions in FL scheduling.
文摘The goal of this paper is to propose a fast and accurate iris pattern recognition system by using wireless network system. This paper consists of three parts: the first part includes two methods of the iris pattern recognition system: Libor Masek and genetic algorithms, the second part includes the compression-decompression process of iris image using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a data reduction method, in order to reduce image size, and the third part talks about wireless network. In this work, an iris image is transferred across wireless network which contains two independent-parallel lines connected to the central Personal Computer (PC) in order to be recognized at the end of each line, then the results of recognition are sent back to the central PC. The proposed genetic algorithm, which is used in this paper is more accurate than Masek algorithm and has low computational time and complexity, which makes this method better than Masek method in recognizing iris patterns.

文摘Link scheduling has always been a fundamental problem in wireless networks for its direct impacts on the performance of wireless networks such as throughput capacity,transmission delay,lifetime,etc.Existing work is mainly established under graphbased models,which are not only impractical but also incorrect due to the essentially fading characteristics of signals.In this paper,we study the shortest link scheduling problem under two more realistic models,namely the signal to interference plus noise ratio(SINR)model and the Rayleigh fading model.We propose a centralized square-based scheduling algorithm(CSSA)with oblivious power control under the SINR model and prove its correctness under both the SINR model and the Rayleigh fading model.Furthermore,we extend CSSA and propose a distributed square-based scheduling algorithm(DSSA).Note that DSSA adopts CSMA/CA so that a wireless node can compete for the wireless channel before starting its communication.We also show theoretical analysis and conduct extensive simulations to exhibit the correctness and efficiency of our algorithms.

文摘Recently,coded caching has been treated as a promising technique to alleviate the traffic burden in wireless networks.To support high efficient coded caching multicast transmissions,the time-varying heterogeneous channel conditions need to be considered.In this paper,a practical and novel multi-source spinal coding(MSSC)scheme is developed for coded caching multicast transmissions under heterogeneous channel conditions.By exploring joint design of network coding and spinal coding(SC),MSSC can achieve unequal link rates in multicast transmissions for different users.Moreover,by leveraging the rateless feature of SC in our design,MSSC can well adapt the link rates of all users in multicast transmissions without any feedback of time-varying channel conditions.A maximum likelihood(ML)based decoding process for MSSC is also developed,which can achieve a linear complexity with respect to the user number in the multicast transmission.Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the MSSC scheme.Compared to the existing scheme,the sum rate of MSSC in multicast transmissions is improved by about 20%.When applying MSSC in coded caching systems,the total transmission time can be reduced by up to 48% for time-varying channels.
文摘Mission critical Machine-type Communication(mcMTC),also referred to as Ultra-reliable Low Latency Communication(URLLC),has become a research hotspot.It is primarily characterized by communication that provides ultra-high reliability and very low latency to concurrently transmit short commands to a massive number of connected devices.While the reduction in physical(PHY)layer overhead and improvement in channel coding techniques are pivotal in reducing latency and improving reliability,the current wireless standards dedicated to support mcMTC rely heavily on adopting the bottom layers of general-purpose wireless standards and customizing only the upper layers.The mcMTC has a significant technical impact on the design of all layers of the communication protocol stack.In this paper,an innovative bottom-up approach has been proposed for mcMTC applications through PHY layer targeted at improving the transmission reliability by implementing ultra-reliable channel coding scheme in the PHY layer of IEEE 802.11a standard bearing in mind short packet transmission system.To achieve this aim,we analyzed and compared the channel coding performance of convolutional codes(CCs),low-density parity-check(LDPC)codes,and polar codes in wireless network on the condition of short data packet transmission.The Viterbi decoding algorithm(VA),logarithmic belief propagation(Log-BP)algorithm,and cyclic redundancy check(CRC)successive cancellation list(SCL)(CRC-SCL)decoding algorithm were adopted to CC,LDPC codes,and polar codes,respectively.Consequently,a new PHY layer for mcMTC has been proposed.The reliability of the proposed approach has been validated by simulation in terms of Bit error rate(BER)and packet error rate(PER)vs.signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).The simulation results demonstrate that the reliability of IEEE 802.11a standard has been significantly improved to be at PER=10−5 or even better with the implementation of polar codes.The results also show that the general-purpose wireless networks are prominent inproviding short packet mcMTC with the modification needed.

文摘Heterogeneous Wireless Network is currently a major area of focus in communication engineering.But the important issue in recent communication is the approachability to the wireless networks while maintaining the quality of service.Today,all the wireless access networks are working in tandem to keep the users always connected to the internet cloud that matches the price affordability and performance goals.In order to achieve seamless connectivity,due consideration has to be given to handoff precision and a smaller number of handoffs.Several researchers have used heuristic approaches to solve this issue.In the present work,a hybrid intelligent algorithm has been suggested for vertical handoff decisions.This hybrid intelligent algorithm is based on dual optimization approach which uses“Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)”and“Mobile Robustness Optimization(MRO)”techniques for improving the quality of services.This approach performs well even in the failure network conditions and gives the best results in terms of connectivity.The results at the last has been compared with the conventional techniques and it has been observed that the proposed methodology outperforms the existing one.

文摘Cross-technology interference(CTI)from diverse wireless networks such as ZigBee,Bluetooth,and Wi-Fi has become a severe problem in the 2.4 GHz Industrial Scientific and Medical(ISM)band.Especially,low power and lossy networks are vulnerable to the signal interferences from other aggressive wireless networks when they perform low power operations to conserve the energy consumption.This paper presents CoSense,which accurately detects ZigBee signals with a reliable signal correlation scheme in the presence of the CTI.The key concept of CoSense is to reduce false wake-ups of low power listening(LPL)by identifying the pre-defined ZigBee signatures.Our scheme is robust in the coexistence environment of diverse wireless technologies since the signal correlation works well in bad wireless channel conditions.It achieves standard compliance and transparency without any hardware and firmware changes.We have implemented CoSense on the Universal Software Radio Peripheral(USRP)platform to verify its feasibility.The experimental exploration reveals that CoSense significantly reduces the false-positive and false-negative rate under typical setting and the additional overhead is negligible.The results show that our scheme saves much energy by up to 63%in dynamic network interference scenarios where low-power ZigBee transmissions are overwhelmed by strong Wi-Fi signal interferences.
