However, the indoor localization algorithm based on RSSI is easy to be influenced by the channel interference and the environment. In this paper, a novel method is presented for improving the accuracy of indoor localization, which is based on anchor node feedback correction. First, the whole environment is divided before positioning, after the minimum location area is determined, the model parameters of the path loss in the region are estimated, then the distance between nodes is calculated accurately, and the feedback of neighbor anchor nodes is used to improve the accuracy further. The simulation results indicate that the method improves the accuracy of node localization and lower the delay and energy consumption of networks compared with conventional RSSI-based algorithm.","PeriodicalId":340958,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Computer, Information and Telecommunication Systems (CITS)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134281094","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}

Messages are exchanged to inform the other vehicles about emergency situations such as-safety alerts, and location privacy. Due to the usage of an insecure wireless medium, malicious activities in vehicles, i.e., illegal use of the false messages, can astray other vehicles. Security in communication among the vehicles can be provided by encrypting the messages using various security keys. However, it has been found from the literature that existing schemes for secure communication require large key size, and therefore may these schemes may not be applicable to smart cities. To address these issues, a secure message communication scheme among vehicles based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is proposed. The proposed scheme needs smaller key size leading to mathematically simple and cost effective solution. Furthermore, the scheme provides mutual authentication, confidentiality, and forward secrecy. Security analysis prove that the proposed scheme is suitable to be adapted in smart city environment.","PeriodicalId":340958,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Computer, Information and Telecommunication Systems (CITS)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133342603","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}

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) based code allocation is a great solution. It tessellates the geographic region to be covered into regular hexagonal quantization cell. All users access to their location information at marked time instances through GNSS. The transmission sequences are pre-assigned to the location cells and then dynamically assigned to the users. It also proposed a concept of sequence reuse that is akin to frequency reuse. A drawback of GNSS-based code allocation is the average user throughput (AUT) is relatively low. Transmission sequence reconstruction and allocation (TSRA) based on GNSS-based code allocation is proposed. Firstly, in each superframe T, each user acquires user irrepressibility (UI) sequence according to GNSS-based mechanism in the first period to obtain the information of neighbors in the same cell cluster; users in different direction use half of the superframe T respectively. Secondly, users reconstruct a set of UI sequences according to the number of neighbors in the same cell cluster. Then, users acquire a reconstructed sequence according to the order of the users' first successful “1” in the first period. The performance of TSRA is compared with GNSS-based code allocation by ns-2 with the vehicle mobility data from the Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO). The simulation results show that the AUT of TSRA is better than GNSS-based code allocation in a relatively sparser distributed network.","PeriodicalId":340958,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Computer, Information and Telecommunication Systems (CITS)","volume":"180 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116324632","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, the capacity-constrained fronthaul has become a key performance bottleneck for C-RANs. Generally, the traditional SE and EE are utilized to evaluate radio transmit performances without considering fronthaul cost, which is always the major concern for operators. In this paper, an economical spectral efficiency (ESE) is proposed to jointly take traditional SE/EE and the impact of wired/wireless fronthaul into account. Aiming at maximizing ESE, a non-convex beamformer design problem with fronthaul capacity and transmit power constraints is formulated. To deal with this non-convexity, the primal problem is transformed to an equivalent problem, which is solved by the weighted minimum mean square error approach. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve ESE, in which the impact of fronthaul on ESE is evaluated and analyzed as well.","PeriodicalId":340958,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Computer, Information and Telecommunication Systems (CITS)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126951160","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}

For computing the distance between them, covariances are transformed to LECM features by matrix logarithm operation. Moreover, exponential weights are imposed on the pooled features to enhance the performance of linear kernel SVM.
