The model proposed in this paper is a heuristic that bases the capacity prediction for a future time slot on the number of 40G links needed in the current time slot. It also revolves around four parameters for which the values are empirically set. We set two thresholds, low and high, as well as the number of links to power off or power on each time the utilization is below or above a threshold. We assess our model through experiments featuring an Internet2-like topology and a real one-day worth of traffic split into five-minute time slots. The results offer a comparison between different parameters settings and how they affect energy savings and the number of overflows in the network that result from mis-prediction. That said, we demonstrate that our model can achieve up to 90% reduction in energy consumption in the best case when the future traffic is known; otherwise, the savings can range between 82% and 88% with the occurrence of a small amount of traffic overflow events.","PeriodicalId":333503,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommuncations Systems (ANTS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126963184","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}

In PON system, high optical power budget is required to increase the number of customer and/or to increase the access distance without adding any active device in the PON system. In this paper, a frequency diversity technique is used to increase the optical power budget of direct-detection optical-OFDM-PON (DDO-OFDM-PON) and coherent optical-OFDM-PON (CO-OFDM-PON) system. Analytical result show that at BER of 10 3, there is 3 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and 1.5 dB improvement in optical power budget using proposed OFDM-PON architecture as compared to conventional architecture of OFDM-PON system. There is also 5.2 dB difference in receiver sensitivity between DDO-OFDM-PON and CO-OFDM-PON system.","PeriodicalId":333503,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommuncations Systems (ANTS)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127475464","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}

Various approaches have been suggested to increase the existing cellular capacity and provide higher data rates, some of which include deployment of small cells under the coverage area of Macro cells, where a cell denotes the region covered by a particular base station (BS). However, since these small cells cover small regions there exists a significant handover signalling overhead. We suggest an approach where small cells, called Phantom cells, are deployed within the Macro cell coverage area, and the existing Macro BS functions as the centralized controller for all the Phantom BSs deployed within its range. Phantom BSs act as a supplement to the existing Radio Access Network in the LTE infrastructure where it handles the data plane (D-plane) and Macro BSs handle the control plane (C-plane). This paper proposes the definitions of Copiane and D-plane, the modifications in the user equipment (UE) protocol stack which enable the concurrent operation with dual BSs (Phantom and Macro). Mechanisms are developed for the communication of a Phantom BS with a Macro BS over the new interface (X3 interface). NS-3 simulations were performed incorporating the designed architecture for Phantom based HetNets and a significant improvement in UE throughput is observed in comparision with legacy networks comprising of Macro BS.","PeriodicalId":333503,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommuncations Systems (ANTS)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125132727","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, there are some hot-spot areas resulting in uneven load distribution among APs. Existing load balancing techniques mostly require hardware or software contribution at user side to control the association of users with APs. Power adjustment techniques at AP side require no modification at user devices, but, coverage reduction can create unserviced areas. We provide a dynamic min-max load balancing algorithm based on power adjustment technique which provides service availability guarantee by dynamically checking the coverage holes. We enhanced the algorithm by increasing awareness to heterogeneous nature of user distribution. We show the effectiveness of the provided algorithms via extensive set of simulations.
