A Fair Queueing Algorithm is proposed for data services in an integrated voice/data CDMA system. We introduce short-term and long-term fairness concepts to allocate data users fairly. Using these concepts, we propose a Weighted Fair Queueing with Status Control (WFQS) in the consideration of a Generalized Processor Sharing (GPS) fluid-flow model. This proposed scheme allocates resources using channel status information. The throughput and delay of data users could be improved when this scheme is applied to wireless channels.
In RFID systems, collision resolution is a significant issue in fast tag identification. This letter presents a dynamic frame-slotted ALOHA algorithm that uses a collision factor (DFSA-CF). This method enables fast tag identification by estimating the next frame size with the collision factor in the current frame. Simulation results show that the proposed method reduces slot times Required for RFID identification. When the number of tags is larger than the frame size, the efficiency of the proposed method is greater than those of conventional algorithms.
An effective access control scheme in CDMA networks is proposed to provide multimedia services. The proposed scheme controls the access of multimedia traffic using the delay of data traffic and the transmission rate control of video traffic. Numerical results show that throughput and delay are improved by allowing delay of data traffic under low and medium traffic conditions, and by decreasing the transmission rate of video traffic under heavy traffic conditions.
We propose a coordinated resource allocation (CRA) scheme that can be used to allocate high data-rate users in sectorized cells. This scheme is useful for allocating high data-rate users at cell boundaries. In order to analyze the performance of the proposed scheme, we make an interference model for a sectorized CDMA system and suggest the system load measurement of the forward link. Based on this system load measurement, data throughput for the CDMA system under perfect and imperfect power control is then analyzed. Numerical results show that throughput is significantly increased when the CRA scheme is used.
This paper proposes a low latency MAC protocol that can be used in sensor networks. To extend the lifetime of sensor nodes, the conventional solution is to synchronize active/sleep periods of all sensor nodes. However, due to these synchronized sensor nodes, packets in the intermediate nodes must wait until the next node wakes up before it can forward a packet. This induces a large delay in sensor nodes. To solve this latency problem, a clustered sensor network which uses two types of sensor nodes and layered architecture is considered. Clustered heads in each cluster are synchronized with different timing offsets to reduce the sleep delay. Using this concept, the latency problem can be solved and more efficient power usage can be obtained.
