Moreover, this method is also effective in suppressing jitter in ATM which is the core technology of B-ISDN.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115282171","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 paper proposes original solutions to the following crucial problems: (i) the determination of a short-term parameter for assessing the link quality of a PRMA carrier in a microcellular environment; (ii) the determination of a procedure the base station can follow in order to perform a real-time estimation of the above-mentioned short-term parameter; (iii) the interworking between the DCA mechanism and the PRMA technique. Simulation results show a remarkable improvement in system performance, due to both the DCA and PRMA techniques.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116690880","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 measurements were made during the winter season in both rectilinear and curvilinear areas of the city using a mobile receiver driven along all passable streets under normal traffic conditions. We define circular or diamond-shaped coverage areas (depending on the environment), where 90% of the measured area has a path loss (or attenuation) less than some specified level, and compare our measured path loss to that predicted by existing diamond-shaped rectilinear area models based on reflection and diffraction of the signal by the environment. Excellent agreement is found in the rectilinear areas. When compared to the rectilinear areas, the curvilinear areas show a larger coverage at lower path losses. This difference can be explained by the distribution of reflected and diffracted paths due to the particular street geometry of the curvilinear area.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"142 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117060275","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}

One method to achieve this involves interference adaptive receivers. In this paper we study the performance in symmetrical cellular systems of strongest interferer adaptive single-user receiver schemes. Performance evaluation demonstrates that by applying these receivers, the downlink cell average error probability is reduced. Consequently, the system capacity is enhanced compared to a system with conventional receivers. Results show that by using the adaptive receiver schemes a cluster size reduction of one step is achievable for hexagonal cell layouts. For base stations on a symmetrical grid, the performance gains in the downlink are shown to be almost independent of the cluster size and of the base station activities.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"53 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121017313","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 performance of the adaptive time-frequency (ATF) exciser is ranked along with fixed and optimal transform domain-based excisers. The smart ATF exciser is able to decide on the domain of processing. For the narrowband interference case, the ATF exciser employs an adaptive subband filter bank with the best transform basis. The bit error rate performance of DSSS receiver is simulated for ATF, DFT, DCT, optimal KLT, and fixed subband filter bank-based interference cancellers. It is shown that the smart ATF exciser significantly outperforms the others for the scenarios considered. The performance of ATF is very robust to the variations of the interference.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124954702","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}

A possible network configuration is sketched as it is deployed in existing ATM pilot networks for permanent connections today. The concept is described and illustrated by typical message flows during call establishment and call tear-down. The impact of enhancing an existing prototyped ATM node capable of call processing and user network interface signalling in island configurations is examined.

This address is location-sensitive, and conventional routing algorithms impose further restrictions on the portability and mobility of hosts. The aim of portable communications is to allow a movable host to communicate with others in the Internet wherever it moves to. To achieve this mode of communication, the portable host can be dynamically assigned a temporary IP address in a guest network. For other systems to locate and send IP datagrams to it, the portable host must be able to be referenced via an unchanging domain name. This paper explains the technical details of a practical method of achieving portable communications in the Internet. This method aims to provide maximum compatibility with current IP systems and to minimise the number of new services required.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125562134","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 study the performance of an ATM multiplexer with two traffic classes with different QoS requirements, each class arriving as a batch Markovian arrival process. The buffer priority schemes adopted are PBS (partial buffer sharing) and PBS+push-out. We first obtain the engineering trade-off curves, between CLP=0 and CLP=1 traffic. Then we formulate a revenue optimisation problem, in which the constraints are the engineering trade-off function, and a simple model of the variation of CLP=1 demand with its price.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128320272","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}
