However, CA technique will drive the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of uplink signal to the extreme level. PAPR remains an important issue for a LTE-A User Equipment (UE) because it determines the PA efficiency and the coverage when multi-carrier transmission is employed. The uplink signal with a high level of PAPR will be severely affected by the nonlinearity of Power Amplifier (PA) and brings unacceptable interference into adjacent channels. To mitigate the interference, this paper introduces a well-known linearization technique named back off of UE transmission power and analyzes the factors which actually influence the value of power back off needed represented by Maximum Power Reduction (MPR). Based on theoretical analysis and experimental results, this paper provides credible references to the similar research and the RF design of UE especially in LTE-A system.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126164212","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}

Since CRS muting scheme with rate matching decreases PDSCH throughput, we propose to send an additional PDSCH RE over the CRS collided PDSCH REs from joint transmission points. With CRS-IC (CRS interference canceling) receiver at UE, this scheme has significant throughput gain over CRS muting in the link level simulation. In addition, this new approach doesn't have negative impact on legacy UE's interference measurements compared with the rate matching scheme.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"273 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133484975","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}

As a potential intelligent transportation system (ITS) solution, multi-agent intersection management systems have recently received increased attention with the rapid advance in wireless communications and comprehensive vehicular technologies. Most of the proposed multi-agent system approaches take a FIFO (first-in first-out) approach to time-space occupancy scheduling. However, by also optimizing the departure sequence, greater global benefits are possible. In this paper, we propose a modified multi-agent system with optimal scheduling of Vehicle Agent's (VAs') departure times. Compared with the FIFO-based system developed in the authors' previous work, the modified system can provide more system-wide benefits in terms of mobility, reliability and sustainability. Simulation studies have shown improvements in travel times, but more importantly an approximately 58% reduction in travel time variability and 49%-60% reductions in (partial) stops. These leads to potential benefits in fuel consumption and pollutant emissions, primarily by carefully designing VAs' trajectories through the intersection.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122035054","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 is a very important part of applications of connected vehicles where there is a constant need for vehicles to exchange information with the communication infrastructure. This could result in the congestion of the network with data. Alternatively information can be disseminated using exclusively adhoc V2V approach. This approach may lead to broadcast storm and jamming of the V2V channel. In this study we evaluate as a proof-of-concept, V2V data broadcast, for an algorithm proposed in an earlier study to build autonomous and dynamic groups. In our recent studies we showed that the hybrid VANETs formed using this algorithm can reduce communication load and are very scalable for sensor data collection. In this study we modify the dynamic grouping algorithm so that the time for which the group is available for data broadcast is improved. This modified algorithm for dynamic grouping of vehicular nodes is implemented in a realistic well-calibrated microscopic traffic simulation test bed of New Jersey Turnpike. We demonstrate the benefit by considering a generic instance of an event-specific data broadcast. This data could be information on accidents, local commercial information, etc. We demonstrate, using initial findings, that the algorithm can be used to contain broadcast storm and reduce bandwidth usage by 65-76% compared to flooding and 45-62% compared to farthest neighbor broadcast protocol. Thus we establish that the dynamic grouping algorithm is an effective solution in many real-world traffic scenarios.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121109673","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 design a load-balancing guiding scheme and derive an analytical model in order to reduce the total evacuation time of indoor people. The guiding scheme can provide the fastest path to an exit for people based on the evacuation time estimated by the analytical model. This is the first distributed solution which takes the corridor capacity and length, exit capacity, concurrent move, and people distribution into consideration for estimating evacuation time and planning escape paths. Through the proposed framework, the congestion of certain corridors and exits can be released to significantly reduce the total evacuation time. Analytical and simulation results show that our approach outperforms existing works, which can prevent people from following the local optimal guiding direction with the longer evacuation time in total. We also implement a prototype, called Load-balancing Emergency Guiding System (LEGS), which can compare evacuation time and guiding directions of existing schemes and ours under different people distribution.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126523060","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}

However, how to use flow features at the packet level for effective classification of traffic flows is still a significant issue to be solved. The objective of this paper is to compare and analyze three typical flow features at the packet level: packet size combined with packet direction, packet size combined with interarrival time, and protocol fingerprint. The amount of information carried by each feature is presented with mutual information measurement. Based on the traffic traces captured from two different network environments, our experimental results indicate that when C4.5 algorithm classifies traffic flows with the first two packets of each flow, packet size combined with packet interarrival time, which is generated from the client-to-server direction of a TCP connection, is more accurate and stable across space and time.","PeriodicalId":182453,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Connected Vehicles and Expo (ICCVE)","volume":"3 S1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113964950","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}
