为了实现异构车联网中安全应用消息的低时延高可靠传输,针对基于DSRC/LTE的异构车联网,设计了一种面向安全应用消息传输的网络选择算法。该算法从安全应用消息传输服务质量(quality of service,QoS)需求出发,综合考虑了安全应用消息传输QoS的多项参数指标,包括端到端时延、丢包率、传输速率。算法首先利用层次分析法计算出安全应用消息传输QoS各个参数的权重值,然后分析了各个候选网络支持安全应用消息传输QoS的能力,最后确定了安全应用消息传输QoS的满意度。采用双向耦合、实时交互的车联网仿真平台Veins LTE对面向安全应用消息传输QoS的网络选择算法进行了仿真实现和性能验证。仿真结果表明,面向安全应用消息传输的网络选择算法可以根据安全应用消息传输的不同QoS需求,合理地分配网络资源。一方面,与仅使用已经实现的QoS-oriented TDMA协议相比,同时使用QoS-oriented TDMA协议和面向安全应用消息传输的网络选择算法的异构车联网,在高速场景和市区场景中安全应用消息的接收概率分别提高了13.7%和10.4%,传输时延分别减少了8.6%和11.5%。另一方面,面向安全应用消息传输的网络选择算法在高速场景和市区场景中,与匹配博弈网络选择算法相比,安全应用消息的接收概率分别提高了11.6%和7.5%,传输时延分别减少了13.2%和15.3%。

异构网络中保障业务QoS的TCP协议研究

当TCP协议应用于异构网络时业务的QoS无法得到保障,具体而言,一方面TCP协议与无线网络适配性较差,导致网络丢包率升高、吞吐量下降;另一方面,TCP协议对于业务不区分优先级,不能满足高优先级业务的需求。因此,文章提出了异构网络中基于捕食模型的保障业务QoS的TCP协议(QoS - Internet Predator based on Prey Model,Q-IPPM)。Q-IPPM算法不仅会根据异构网络的带宽改进TCP协议的拥塞控制架构,还根据不同业务的负载状况和优先级控制不同业务流量占比。实验结果表明,Q-IPPM算法不仅可以提显著提高异构网络的吞吐量,降低网络丢包率,还能够根据业务优先级和负载状况将带宽“按需分配”给不同业务,从而保障了异构网络中业务的QoS。

Multi-robot navigation based QoS routing in self-organizing networks

The technical development drives the future networks to become large-scale, heterogeneous, and dynamic. Bio-inspired networking can help reduce the time-space complexity of the complex network. Due to the good features such as self-organization and self-management, self-organizing network (SON) will most probably be a priority choice for the next generation network. In this paper, a swarm intelligence based Quality of Service (QoS) routing protocol is proposed for SON. The inaccurate routing and QoS information is described with fuzzy mathematics whilst the utilities of both the user and the network service provider are considered by applying game theory. Based on the multi-robot navigation algorithm, the protocol is able to search a routing path which can satisfy the user QoS requirements and achieve the Pareto optimal utilities of the user and the network service provider under Nash equilibrium. The proposed protocol is implemented and evaluated by extensive simulation experiments. The results show that it beats both other swarm intelligence based routing protocols and the traditional Dijkstra algorithm based routing protocol. The searched routing paths support the win–win effect for both the user and the network service provider.

Markov-based vertical handoff decision algorithms in heterogeneous wireless networks

In this paper, we propose a received signal strength (RSS)-based single-attribute handoff decision algorithm at first, and investigate handoff decision model based on connection lifetime, which can keep mobile terminals (MTs) staying long enough in the preferred network. Since the preferred quality of service (QoS) parameters may be distinct among different MTs, we then formulate the vertical handoff decision problem as a Markov decision process, with the objectives of maximizing the expected total reward and minimizing average number of handoffs. A reward function is constructed to assess the QoS during each connection, and the G1 and entropy methods are applied in an iterative way, by which we can work out a stationary deterministic handoff decision policy. Numerical results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed schemes compared with other existing algorithms.     

A MIH-based approach for best network selection in heterogeneous wireless networks

In the next generation wireless networks, different technologies belonging to one or more operators should be integrated to form a heterogeneous environment based on an IP core network infrastructure. This ensures user mobility and service continuity by maintaining connections when switching between various technologies and it introduces new resources and possibilities for applications. In this context, an automatic interface selection based on instantaneous and practical constraints and user preferences (Quality of Service (QoS) parameters, available resources, security, power consumption, etc.) is therefore required. The different network selection and handover schemes proposed in the literature can be classified into three approaches according to who is responsible for making the handover decision: the terminal, the network or by a cooperation between both of them. However, these approaches keep presenting some drawbacks; namely the problem of resources management and network load balancing whenever the selection is controlled by the mobile terminal (MT) and the problem of scalability and unknown operator's management policy whenever the selection is rather controlled by the network.In this article, first we propose a MIH based approach for handover initiation and preparation for heterogeneous wireless network. The proposed framework is based on the principals of IEEE 802.21 for context information gathering and optimized handover decision making. Second, we propose a new architecture and new network selection scheme that explicitly take into account the current resource usage and the user preferences. Furthermore, our solution ensures the selection of the most suitable network for each flow while taking into consideration its expectations in terms of QoS. A feasibility study of implementing a new architecture on a single MT is evaluated by using typical scenarios and using various algorithms. Thanks to the introduced function entities and modules in the proposed architecture, network utilization balancing and user and application expectations, which are successfully assured without operator intervention. Performance analysis shows that the proposed algorithm best meets the common quality requirements.

Interference aware vertical handoff decision algorithm for quality of service support in wireless heterogeneous networks

Next generation wireless networks concept aims at collaboration of various radio access technologies in order to provide quality of service (QoS) supported and cost efficient connections at anywhere and anytime. Since the next generation wireless systems are expected to be of heterogeneous topology, traditional handoff (horizontal handoff/handover) mechanisms are not sufficient to meet the requirements of these types of networks. More intelligent vertical handoff algorithms which consider user profiles, application requirements, and network conditions must be employed in order to provide enhanced performance results for both user and network. Moreover, frequency reuse of one (FRO) seems to be the strongest candidate of deployment options for next generation wireless networks; therefore, interference conditions gains a significant attention in vertical handoff decision making process. In this study, a fuzzy logic-based handoff decision algorithm is introduced for wireless heterogeneous networks. The parameters; data rate, received signal strength indicator (RSSI), and mobile speed are considered as inputs of the proposed fuzzy-based system in order to decide handoff initialization process and select the best candidate access point around a smart mobile terminal. Also, in contrast to the traditional fuzzy-based algorithms, the method proposed takes ambient interference power, which is referred to as interference rate, as another input to the decision process. The results show that the performance is significantly enhanced for both user and network by the method proposed.
