For appropriately evaluating the efficiency of inter-vehicle communication systems to support such an application, it is of paramount importance to make extensive evaluations under realistic accident model. In this paper, assuming realistic intersection collisions scenarios, we provide simulation results of an inter-vehicle network based on an experimental guide-line defined for inter- vehicle communications system in Japan. Besides the guideline system, we also present our newly developed inter-vehicle communication system based on code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme. Our numerical results show that the proposed CDMA based system can effectively combat hidden-terminal problem as well as high level of congestion around an intersection, and is the only system to satisfy the requirements set by the application for safety driving support.","PeriodicalId":271067,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123708450","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 clear way of implementing information-centric networking is using publish and subscribe (pub/sub) operations instead of the send and receive primitives. Internet-like pub/sub networking requires completely different routing protocols and forwarding mechanisms compared to those that are extensively used today. Consequently, we are facing a clean-slate design exercise, where we should start our adventure by exploring the new design space. We identify four key metrics (signalling overhead, state in nodes, information in packets and routing stretch) to help us evaluating the different proposals. We present a general five-step approach for routing in pub/sub networks. The presented approach is recursive, so it can be repeated as many times as necessary until we reach manageable sized problem instances. The final part of the mechanism is to glue together the created and assigned forwarding structures to the publication to ensure that all interested subscribers at any domains in the network will get the requested data.","PeriodicalId":271067,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114383784","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}

Numerical results show that all the derived analytical expressions are very tight and are valid for the evaluations of the ergodic and outage capacity with arbitrary number of relays and in any practical SNR regions.

Those two versions of the end-to-end argument were effectively one and the same in the early days of the Internet. However, this congruence is now thoroughly broken, and it is thus useful to separate the two conceptually.

Suppose the Internet connection is available at few road- side base stations (RSBs) in a city. Our objective is to solve the bandwidth allocation problem when there are several vehicles connected to an RSB at the same time and the bandwidth of the link to the RSB has to be shared among these vehicles. To solve this bandwidth allocation problem, we propose a game-theoretic model. The main concept of the model is to let each vehicle compete with others in order to obtain the required amount of bandwidth. We formulate this game as an auction game where the vehicles are the bidders and the RSB is the auctioneer. From the performance study, we observe that there is an equilibrium which is a solution in this game. To obtain the solution in a distributed manner, an iterative algorithm is presented.","PeriodicalId":271067,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121237846","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}

Several decision rules for locating the starting positions in continuously transmitted frames are proposed and compared, for both user- synchronous and user-asynchronous cases. It is shown that the common decision rule based on the correlation statistic is suboptimal, and that correction terms need be added in order to achieve an improved detection performance. For the user- asynchronous case, the optimal joint decision rule is derived in analytical form for two-user MAC and is highly complex, and is shown to suffer from a high computational complexity. To reduce the complexity, suboptimal separate decision algorithms with and without Gaussian approximation are derived, and it is il- lustrated using Monte Carlo simulation that those low-complexity algorithms only incur a slight degradation in optimality. by the specific problem of RFID signal separation (6). When multiple RFID tags are activated, symbol-synchronous signals from these tags are simultaneously transmitted in a continuous and repeated fashion, with fixed sync-words inserted into the data streams. Such a system model exactly fits into the research domain of frame synchronization. In this paper, we investigate both the user-synchronous and user-asynchronous cases. In the user-synchronous case, transmitters are scheduled such that their transmitted frames align synchronously. We derive the optimal maximum a pos- terior (MAP) decision rule in this case, which akin to single- user channels includes a correction term in addition to the correlation statistic. In the more general and complicated user- asynchronous case, multiple transmitters start transmitting frames at different time instants and thus there are multiple frame positions to locate. The computational complexity of the MAP joint decision rule grows exponentially with the number of transmitters thus rendering it infeasible for practical implementation. Consequently, an alternative approach which performs frame synchronization for each transmitter separately is proposed, with and without the further complexity reduction via Gaussian approximation of multiple access interference. The performance of the various approaches is evaluated through Monte Carlo simulation, in which different design parameters like the choice of sync words, the relative signal strength between transmitters, and the number of transmitters are examined.","PeriodicalId":271067,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121995928","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 D2D communication enables new service opportunities and reduces the eNB load for short range data intensive peer-to-peer communication. The cellular network may establish a new type of radio bearer dedicated for D2D communications and stay in control of the session setup and the radio resources without routing the user plane traffic. The paper addresses critical issues and functional blocks to enable D2D communication as an add-on functionality to the LTE SAE architecture. Unlike 3G spread spectrum cellular and OFDM WLAN techniques, LTE-A resource management is fast and operates in high time-frequency resolution. This could allow the use of non-allocated time-frequency resources, or even partial reuse of the allocated resources for D2D with eNB controlled power constraints. The feasibility and the range of D2D communication, and its impact to the power margins of cellular communications are studied by simulations in two example scenarios. The results demonstrate that by tolerating a modest increase in interference, D2D communication with practical range becomes feasible. By tolerating higher interference power the D2D range will increase.","PeriodicalId":271067,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123757470","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}
