Although this approach is efficient to cater a wide variety of services, it introduces a new issue in the radio resource allocation among the different non-orthogonal numerologies. This work introduces a new Quality of Service (QoS) aware Radio Resource Management (RRM) framework which schedules User Equipments (UEs) requiring Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) services with different priorities, or non-GBR services. In order to maximize the spectral efficiency and, consequently, the system throughput, this framework consists of two channel-aware control levels. The first level provides a dynamic subdivision of the spectrum among the various numerologies, while the second one schedules the Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) to the UEs belonging to the same numerology. In this paper, we propose a new 1st level allocation algorithm, called Channel-Aware Resource Allocation for Multi-numerology (CARAM), which aims to maximize the system throughput and the amount of satisfied users, taking into account the priority. As 2nd control level, we exploit well-known scheduling algorithms. We benchmark our approach against other existing 1st level allocation algorithms via several system-level simulations, under different traffic loads and channel conditions. The comparative analysis shows that our RRM framework outperforms the reference schemes in terms of system throughput, while guaranteeing a larger number of GBR services with high priority.","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128007257","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}

Many IoT applications involve simple devices that transmit their data toward network gateways or access points that, in turn, redirect the data to application servers. While several security issues have been faced in the LoRaWAN v1.1 specification from the very beginning, there are still some aspects that may undermine the privacy and the security of the IoT devices. In this paper we tackle the privacy aspect in the LoRaWAN device identity. The proposed approach, by monitoring the traffic of a LoRaWAN Network, is able to derive, in a probabilistic way, the unique identifier of the device from the temporal address assigned from the network. In other words, the method identifies the relationship between the LoRaWAN DevAddress and the device manufacturer DevEUI. The proposed approach, named DEVIL (DEVice Identification and privacy Leakage), is based on temporal patterns arising in the packet transmissions by LoRaWAN devices, and it is evaluated on the dataset extracted from real applications scenario deployed in Italy by a network operator. The results of our analysis show how device identification, during the time, can expose users to privacy leakage.","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128913126","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}

These platforms, which include testbeds like those of the PAWR program and emulators like Colosseum, allow researchers to prototype and test their solutions in a sound yet realistic wireless environment before actual deployment. Emulators, in particular, enable wireless experiments that are not site-specific as those on real testbeds. Researchers can choose among different radio frequency (RF) scenarios for real-time emulation of a vast variety of different situations, with different number of users, RF bandwidth, antenna counts, hardware requirements, etc. Although very powerful, in that they can emulate virtually any real-world deployment, emulated scenarios are only as useful as how accurately they can reproduce the targeted wireless channel and environment. Achieving emulation accuracy is particularly challenging, especially for experiments at scale for which emulators require considerable amounts of computational resources. In this paper, we propose a framework to create RF scenarios for emulators like Colosseum starting from rich forms of input, like those obtained by measurements through radio equipment or via software (e.g., ray-tracers and electromagnetic field solvers). Our framework optimally scales down the large set of RF data in input to the fewer parameters allowed by the emulator by using efficient clustering techniques and channel impulse response re-sampling. We showcase our method by generating wireless scenarios for the Colosseum network emulator by using Remcom's Wireless InSite, a commercial-grade ray-tracer that produces key characteristics of the wireless channel. Examples are provided for line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight scenarios on portions of the Northeastern University main campus","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124536011","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}

Among the many new immersive applications, Omnidirectional Video Streaming (OVS) - or 360°Video Streaming - is attracting the attention of both the industry and the research community. The increased immersivity of 360° videos comes at the cost of larger bandwidth requirements compared to classic 2D videos. To tackle the issue of reducing bandwidth requirements, tiling is a viable technique that allows to encode the portions of the 360° video most likely to fall outside of the users' viewport at lower quality using a higher quantization parameter. Tiling requires new encoders to be used which however do not have available hardware decoders in mobile devices yet. The variable resolution approach instead shrinks areas not falling in the region of interest to decrease the overall resolution and thus allowing bitrate reduction with any codec. This paper quantitatively compares the two approaches to find the trade-offs between achievable bitrate reduction and visual quality measured using the VMAF visual quality metric.","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129935503","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 presence of a malicious device within the network can decrease the IoT applications' effective functionality by failing to transmit the data to the intended user. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) with anomaly detection classify IoT network activity based on what is defined as normal. In this paper we present the evaluation of local Binary Logistic Regression (BLR) detection models, found in mIDS, which monitor local IoT node activity to detect routing layer attacks, such as Selective Forward and Blackhole. The BLR detection models were evaluated in both a simulator and an IoT testbed platform. Overall, our results, both in the simulator and at the testbed, have shown that for each environment to be deployed, a customised BLR model should be created and more than one performance measure should be used. In the paper we propose the use of four performance metrics to fully capture the efficacy of classification methods. Besides Precision, Recall, and Accuracy, we have chosen to include the Matthews Correlation Coefficient in our evaluation set, since it provides a more normalized view and the quality of the BLR detection models.","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124322271","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 concept of blockchain appears therefore blurred, as the same technology cannot empower applications with extremely different requirements, levels of security and performance. This position paper elaborates on the theory of distributed systems to advance a clear definition of blockchain allowing us to clarify its possible role in the IoT. The definition binds together three elements that, as a whole, delineate those unique features that distinguish the blockchain from other distributed ledger technologies: immutability, transparency and anonymity. We note that immutability-which is imperative for securing blockchains-imposes remarkable resource consumption. Moreover, while transparency demands no confidentiality, anonymity enhances privacy but prevents user identification. As such, we raise the concern that these blockchain features clash with the requirements of most IoT applications where devices are power-constrained, data needs to be kept confidential, and users to be clearly identifiable. We consequently downplay the role of the blockchain for the IoT: this can act as a ledger external to the IoT architecture, invoked as seldom as possible and only to record the aggregate results of myriads of local (IoT) transactions that are most of the time performed off-chain to meet performance and scalability requirements.","PeriodicalId":272937,"journal":{"name":"2021 19th Mediterranean Communication and Computer Networking Conference (MedComNet)","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132595972","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}
