It is irrefutable; big data are reshaping commerce, healthcare and governmental decisions. Individuals forgo awareness or even desire to uncover or appreciate how big data are affecting our society. This raises distinct data issues of huge effect, especially for indigenous communities. The novel proposition of this research, is that by considering advances in big data optimisation and issues from an indigenous perspective, a broad appreciation of decision-making significances will result. The microcosm in Aotearoa, New Zealand is relatively simple. It permits both a clear and leading view, especially of complex indigenous effects, due to its foundations in Māoridom. As big data advancements impact the quality of life for us all, there is an enormous responsibility, opportunity and incentive to focus research and awareness into nascent data design fields. Through an indigenous lens, unique perspectives and insights are shaped and presented in this paper, implicating feature selection in high-dimensional data.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134307435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Distributed and collaborative solutions are particularly interesting since the nodes can compute their own localisation without depending on external computational resources. In this paper, we present the context of distributed and cooperative localisation and the principles of a distributed Force-Based localisation algorithm. We then present an original algorithm: UWL (Uncertainty Weighted Localization). A performance evaluation of UWL has been conducted by simulation and the results are compared to the well-known PPE algorithm. The results show that UWL performs better than PPE on a scenario where a comparison with PPE is possible. On two others scenarios where the number of anchors is limited, the localisation accuracy depends on the network density; With a medium connectivity, the localisation accuracy is below 1m for 99% of the nodes, even though none of them is within range of more than 1 anchor.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"267 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126337903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OFDM-IM is a strong transmission technology candidate for the next-generation networks, due to its performance gain over OFDM. In this paper, we analyze the performance of OFDM-IM under jamming attack and propose a new jamming model called arbitrary jamming to adjust jamming power over each subcarrier. We show the superior performance of OFDM-IM in comparison to the classical OFDM, at high signal to jamming power ratios under a jamming attack. We also compare the OFDM-IM system performance in the presence of the barrage jamming and partial band jamming. To support our results, an upper bound on the average bit error probability that is relatively tight at high signal-to-noise and signal-to-jamming power ratio regions is derived under the jamming attack.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127651534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike past works, it considers: (i) the time required by nodes to harvest energy, and (ii) deterioration in battery lifetime due to memory effects. It presents a greedy heuristic that schedules links according to the earliest time in which the batteries at each link’s end nodes are fully discharged. Our results show that considering memory effects via a battery cycle constraint and energy harvesting time increases the link schedule by up to 30.43% and reduces the number of charge/discharge cycles of battery by up to 84.05%. Hence, it helps to increase a battery’s lifetime. On the other hand, an increase in energy harvesting time linearly increases link schedules but it does not affect the number of charge/discharge cycles. Finally, increasing a battery’s depth of discharge reduces its number of charge/discharge cycles by up to 399.84%, while lengthening the link schedule by up to 7.03% only.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131651037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper jointly considers resource allocation and computation offloading problem in device-to-device (D2D)-assisted and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)- based MEC systems, where each computing user (CU) is allowed to execute its task in one of the three ways, i.e., local computing, MEC offloading or D2D offloading. The original problem is formulated as an overall cost minimization problem, which proves to be NP-Hard, making it intractable to solve optimally. So, we transform the original problem into two sub-problems, i.e., resource allocation sub-problem and computation offloading sub-problem and propose two heuristic algorithms to obtain the sub-optimal solutions of both sub-problems. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of proposed scheme when compared with related scheme.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116846466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The game theory is deployed to optimize the transmission power of the base stations before applying the grey relational analysis technique. The payoff function of the game contains utility and cost functions. The game is solved by reaching the Nash equilibrium where we mathematically proved the existing of it. The grey relational analysis is then used to rank the small cells prior to handover. Results show that the proposed method outperformed the conventional method in terms of unnecessary handover, handover failure, average small cell throughput and average small cell load.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121794158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It directly impacts whether latency-critical services can be offered as well as the number and location of the corresponding data centers.

We present a statistical analysis of this data set from which we infer a potential fiber topology. We use this topology to hypothesize on the efficacy of different means of reducing latency and determine their effect on the viability of low-latency services.","PeriodicalId":131639,"journal":{"name":"2020 30th International Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (ITNAC)","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127220206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We measure and compare network performance using parameters such as total rate of transfer, jitter, and packet loss with that of Shortest Path First with no rerouting. Our proposed solution produces lower jitter, packet drops, and higher transfer rate.
