In order to relieve the pressure of cloud computing on link delay, congestion and energy consumption, the promising fog computing is proposed. The fog network consists of several fog clusters. We consider a fog cluster in which a fog controller (FC) aims to schedule the idle fog nodes (FNs) to serve the task node (TN) while guaranteeing the quality of service (QoS) requirements of the TN. We design an ascending-bid auction mechanism to achieve this goal. In this mechanism, the FC is the auctioneer with the reward prices as its strategy and the FNs play the role of bidders with the task sizes as their strategies. The FC uses the bid prices to motivate the FNs to process more data for the TN. The utility function of FNs is proposed, considering the payment from the FC, the cost of task computational delay and energy consumption. The FNs determine the data sizes to be processed by maximizing their utilities. Numerical simulations indicate the satisfactory performance and verify the theoretical analysis, thereby our proposed mechanism results in a win-win solution under the condition of meeting the QoS.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122096374","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}

First, we investigate and implement SPS in an open-source network simulator (NS3). We perform simulations with a focus on LTE-M and Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) systems and evaluate the impact of the SPS technique on the uplink latency of these narrowband systems in real industrial automation scenarios. The performance gain of adopting SPS is analyzed and the results is compared with the legacy dynamic scheduling. Our results show that SPS has the potential to reduce the latency of cellular Internet of Things (cIoT) networks. We believe that SPS can be integrated into LTE-M and NB-IoT systems to support low-latency industrial applications.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122169064","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}

To cope with these challenges, mobile Edge Computing (MEC) has emerged as a new paradigm with computing capabilities in close proximity to the edge of wireless cellular network. In this paper, we study resource allocation for a multi-user multi-task (MUMT) MEC system based on orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA). Each computation task is independent with different priorities. In this regard, we propose a priority based task scheduling policy and jointly optimize the computation and communication resource allocation, so as to maximize profit of mobile network operator (MNO) while satisfying the users quality of service (QoS), power consumption at user and base station (BS), and service rate allocation. Building on the proposed model, we develop an innovative framework to improve the MEC performance, by jointly optimizing the service rate, transmit power and subcarrier allocation under satisfying maximum power and service rate, and delay constraints. Our proposed algorithms are finally verified by numerical results which show that the proposed approach outperforms other benchmark schemes. For example, in the Priority queuing schemes, the performance can be improved compared to No-priority queuing.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123181705","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 millimeter wave bands are different from conventional frequency bands in propagation characteristics, such as large blockage loss. Furthermore, the 5G system also assumes the case of new indoor use, such as industrial robots in factories and so forth. Therefore, a suitable propagation model for millimeter wave bands is necessary to evaluate 5G system performance by simulation or to design 5G area. In this paper, measurement campaigns of the path loss, the power delay profile and the azimuth angular profile of arrival were conducted in an indoor factory environment. In addition, we propose a suitable propagation estimation model for the indoor environment and we clarify that the proposed model is more suitable than the conventional model of the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication sector (ITU-R) in a subway platform by applying the measured results to a subway platform.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131426164","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}

While designing the analog beamformer, we examine the dimension reduction problem and proper subspace (beamspace) construction (by exploiting the joint angle-delay sparsity map and power profile of the multi-user channel) based on which a highly efficient spatio-temporal digital precoding is proposed.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116520634","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}

Per-antenna amplitude control can be used to adjust the amplitudes to reduce the SLL, but the reduction is often achieved at the cost of reduced transmitted power. Large two-dimensional (2D) antenna panels used in mmW phased arrays, however, allow the 2D antenna configuration to be reconfigured to reduce the SLL. In this paper, we present a simplified approach for sidelobe reduction by stacking multiple uniform linear arrays of different size to reduce the sidelobes across the horizontal plane. The approach is based on the relation between the number of antenna elements and the directions of null and sidelobe maxima. The sidelobe reduction is demonstrated by both simulations and measurements. The measurements are carried out in an anechoic chamber at 28 GHz center frequency using a 100 MHz wide modulated 5GNR waveform.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116595222","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 order to resolve this issue, we propose a novel resource scheduling scheme, named 3 bits of reservation information (3bRI). In 3bRI, the scheduling information of the next three time slots is broadcast in ACK frames, and the information can be overheard by neighboring stations. Each active neighboring station checks the overheard scheduling information before starting a transmission, and defers its transmission to avoid a packet collision when the time slot has already been reserved. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the total throughput performance by 55% compared to DCF, and 36% compared to centralized random backoff (CRB) when the number of active nodes is 40. It also maintains a high level of fairness to legacy devices using DCF when devices using 3bRI coexist with legacy devices.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131190236","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 support of this type of service in prospective 5G New Radio (NR) systems has received only little attention so far. In this paper, merging the tools of queuing theory and stochastic geometry we develop a model of 5G NR base station (BS) serving a mixture of unicast and multicast traffic. We validate our model against computer simulations using multicast/unicast session drop probabilities and system resource utilization as metrics of interest. Our numerical results illustrate that the presence of multicast type of traffic severely compromises performance of unicast sessions. Furthermore, this effect is amplified when the inter-site distance (ISD) between BSs increases. Thus, in order to satisfy prescribed performance guarantees in terms of unicast and multicast session drop probabilities, explicit resource reservation mechanism at NR BS might be required.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132652754","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}
