Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is proposed as a new paradigm to provide computational resources for mobile users at the edge of mobile networks by deploying dense high-performance servers. Mobile devices (MDs) can migrate part of their tasks to the MEC server for parallel computation via wireless channel to obtain better user experience. Optimization algorithms have been reliable for solving such resource allocation problems. However, the iterative optimization algorithms are not suitable for the high real-time MEC system due to the complex operations and iterations. To tackle this challenge, we propose a deep neural network based algorithm. Firstly we use a classic optimization algorithm sequential quadratic programming (SQP) to get the optimization results. Then we train the DNN to approximate the behavior of SQP with the optimization results. The experiment results show that our proposed DNN based theme can be trained to well approximate SQP with high accuracy while speeding up the running time hundreds of times to meet the real-time requirement. Further, the comparison between the special DNN and general DNN show that we just need to train a general DNN with tolerable performance loss instead of training special DNNs towards different parameters like the number of MDs in the MEC system.","PeriodicalId":348924,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps)","volume":"90 7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130582531","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 measurements are performed at 2.45 GHz with a bandwidth of 500 MHz. We compare and contrast the self interference (SI) channel observed for both the shared and separate antenna architectures of the IBFD systems using a commercial off-the-shelf MIMO antenna. The power delay profile (PDP) of a SI channel can be decomposed into three components: leakage path, antenna reflection path, and space multi-path. The outdoor measurements indicate that the major component in the PDP is contributed by antenna coupling that do not vary significantly over time. We also observe that for a commercial off-the-shelf antenna, the polarization isolation is comparable to the isolation provided by the circulator and thus separate antenna offers no added advantage in isolation compared to shared antenna architecture.","PeriodicalId":348924,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125641752","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}

Accordingly, in this paper, we introduce the code-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (CD-NOMA) to enhance the achievable throughput in VLC downlink networks. Compared to the power-domain NOMA (PD-NOMA) in VLC systems, the CD-NOMA can be more efficiently combined with the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission so that it will be more attractive for practical implementation. In contrast to the SIC multiuser detection in PD-NOMA, message passing algorithm (MPA) in the factor graph acts as the multiuser detection scheme in the CD-NOMA VLC systems. Hence, combining the features MPA detection and the VLC channel gain, we first develop a power allocation criterion for the superposition signals at each OFDM subcarrier so as to maintain the user fairness. Furthermore, note that under the stable and high signal-to-noise ratio VLC channel, the underlying factor graph's girth indeed dominates the performance of MPA detection. Accordingly, we propose a progressive edge-permutation (PEP) algorithm to optimize the mapping patterns from the users' data to the OFDM subcarriers. Consequently, the girth of the whole factor graph is obviously enlarged and the performance of MPA detection in the CD-NOMA VLC systems is well boosted. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified via the numerical error performance upper bound analysis and the Monte-Carlo simulation.","PeriodicalId":348924,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121814229","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}

A technique called over-the-air computation (AirComp) has emerged to be a promising solution for high-mobility sensing, which integrates functional computation (e.g., averaging and geometric mean) and multi-access by exploiting analog waveform addition. Targeting high-mobility sensing, the technique supports ultra-fast simultaneous access and function computation. In this paper, building on multi-antenna AirComp, we present a new frame-work of wirelessly powered (WP) AirComp to enable UAVs for simultaneous data aggregation and wirelessly powering sensors, where wireless power solves a key design challenge of battery recharging for many sensors. The key feature of WP-AirComp is the leverage of down-link wireless power transfer (WPT) as an additional design dimension for reducing the sum computation error in up-link AirComp. Designing the framework involves the joint optimization of power control, energy beamforming and AirComp equalization. To derive a practical solution, we recast the non-convex problem into equivalent outer and inner problems for (inner) wireless power control and energy beamforming and (outer) AirComp equalization, respectively. The former is solved in closed form while the latter via semi-definite relaxation, which is shown to reach the global optimum with high probability. The solution reveals that the optimal power beams point to the WPT channels, and the optimal power allocation tends to equalize the round-trip attenuation over sensors.","PeriodicalId":348924,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps)","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125422311","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}

On the other hand, during task execution, the robot needs to maintain the reliable communication with the control center in order to receive the precise instructions in time. Therefore, the objective of our optimization in this paper is to maximize the total reward of task execution by balancing utility and cost in the whole CPS.

However; as the number of Handover requests has increased in an ultra-dense topology with a high number of road side units (RSUs), the SDN/NFV controller has become a bottleneck with an increased response time to a vehicle. In this paper, we investigate the following research question: How to reach few milliseconds end-to-end Delay (e2eDelay) for Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency (URLLC) services in 5G vehicular networks? Therefore, we propose a new SDN/NFV based Handover management without disrupting the centralized manner of SDN controller. To do this, we define a logical and physical coverage area of RSUs with two newly redesigned VNFs named as Smallcell and Macrocell virtual Network Functions (SvNF, MvNF). The former one is for serving vehicle on RSU as a smallcell via physical coverage; whereas the latter one is for forwarding data packets over the same RSU that is a macrocell via logical coverage without any Handover request. E2eDelay is monitored by the proposed queuing theoretic formula in a novel Handover Triggering Algorithm which checks the length of the service chain and determines the optimal time to run Handover network function. According to performance results, the proposed SDN/NFV architecture offers 12 milliseconds reduced e2eDelay, by keeping it under 5G requirements (a few milliseconds) with the service chain up to 7 lengths and keeping the centralized manner of SDN.","PeriodicalId":348924,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127402641","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}
