SDN Based Next Generation Mobile Network With Service Slicing and Trials

Software-Defined Network （SDN） empowers the evolution of Internet with the OpenFlow, Network Virtualization and Service Slicing strategies. With the fast increasing requirements of Mobile Internet services, the Internet and Mobile Networks go to the convergence. Mobile Networks can also get benefits from the SDN evolution to fulfill the 5th Generation （5G） capacity booming. The article implements SDN into Frameless Network Architecture （FNA） for 5G Mobile Network evolution with proposed Mobile-oriented OpenFlow Protocol （MOFP）. The Control Plane/User Plane （CP/UP） separation and adaptation strategy is proposed to support the User-Centric scenario in FNA. The traditional Base Station is separated with Central Processing Entity （CPE） and Antenna Element （AE） to perform the OpenFlow and Network Virtualization. The AEs are released as new resources for serving users. The mobile-oriented Service Slicing with different Quality of Service （QoS） classification is proposed and Resource Pooling based Virtualized Radio Resource Management （VRRM） is optimized for the Service Slicing strategy with resource-limited feature in Mobile Networks. The capacity gains are provided to show the merits of SDN based FNA. And the MiniNet based Trial Network with Service Slicing is implemented with experimental results.

On Generality of the Data Plane and Scalability of the Control Plane in Software-Defined Networking

The control and data planes are decoupled in software-defined networking （SDN）, which enables both planes to evolve independently, and brings about many advantages such as high flexibility, programmability, and rapid implementation of new network protocols. However, in order to improve the scalability of the control plane at present, some control functionalities are added to the data plane, which is probably to impact on the generality of the data plane. The key challenge of adding control functionalities to the data plane is to strike a careful balance between the generality of the data plane and the scalability of the control plane. We propose some basic principles that both control and data planes should comply with, based on the evolutionary trend of SDN. Moreover, we take two approaches for reference according to the principles, viewed from the control messages in OpenFlow-based SDN. Our evaluations demonstrate that the approaches can maintain the generality of the data plane and improve the scalability of the control plane.

On Bandwidth Allocation for Data Dissemination in Cellular Mobile Networks

Wireless bandwidth is a scarce resource in a cellular mobile network. As such, it is important to effectively allocate bandwidth to each cell such that the overall system performance is optimized. Channel allocation strategies have been extensively studied for voice communications in cellular networks. However, for data dissemination applications, studies on bandwidth allocation have thus far been limited to a single-cell environment. This paper investigates the problem of bandwidth allocation for data dissemination in a multi-cell environment, which, to the best of our knowledge, has not been investigated before. The performance objective is to minimize the overall expected access latency given the workload for each cell in a data dissemination system. Two heuristic techniques, called compact allocation and cluster-step allocation, are proposed to effectively allocate bandwidth for a cellular network. Simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed bandwidth allocation schemes. Experimental results show that the proposed schemes substantially outperform the uniform allocation and proportional allocation schemes.     

Modeling a Mobile Cellular Network Using a Discrete-Event Simulator

In this paper we introduce a discrete-event-based simulation technology suitable to model cellular mobile radio systems with respect to their dynamic behavior. The latter results in the need for simulation tools which support mutable system configurations. The problems encountered when modeling mutable system configurations using conventional discrete-event simulators are discussed. In order to show a possible solution to this problem we introduce configuration events and configuration objects into the theory of discrete-event simulations. We demonstrate how configuration objects can be implemented in a discrete-event simulator using a dynamic map-function, hereby extending a definition of higher order functions. We apply the configuration objects in a Multiple Layer Model for modeling an entire mobile cellular radio network in a discrete-event simulator as an application for the extended theory. In this model we use the configuration objects to change the network's configuration during runtime. We show that this solution—combined with an object-oriented software design and, possibly, a visual programming language—is a powerful tool for the simulation of the dynamic aspects of mobile cellular radio networks. The software technology presented will be applied by the German cellular network operator Mannesmann Mobilfunk to model dynamic features applicable to the radio resource management of mobile radio networks and to access their performance by simulation.

Multi-Tier Cellular Network Dimensioning

Wireless communications systems enable the end users to be mobile. The majority of the wireless communications networks are cellular networks. Several methods are developed to increase the performance of the cellular networks, which depends on the correct determination of the design parameters as well as the architecture of the system and the traffic requirements. In this study, we introduce a Simulated Annealing (SA) based method to determine the design parameters of a multi-tier cellular network, for which the implementation cost is minimized. The cellular system employs guard channels and allows calls to overflow to upper tiers. We conducted experiments with the SA-based technique on different example problems in two-tier cellular networks and obtained promising results.
