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}

We consider an ultra-wide band millimeter wave (mm-Wave) system with a frequency selective channel. The channel is based on practical results at mm-Wave frequencies. Our numerical results show that SC-FDE systems with minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizers outperform OFDM and SC-FDE systems with zero forcing (ZF) equalizers at high signal to noise ratio (SNR) regimes.

However, challenging security issues have been discovered on its design, with researches actively working to reduce the impact of cyber attacks exploring such breaches. One of these issues allows malicious IPv6 nodes to pretend they are actual gateways of a network, allowing for Denial-of-Service and Man-in-the-Middle attacks. This work proposes the Fingerprint-based Router Advertisement Guard (FibRA-Guard), a mechanism to avoid the spread of malicious Router Advertisements on wireless networks, relying on non-intrusive fingerprint authentication of sources of suspicious Router Advertisements based on the time each device takes to generate and send IPv6 packets. On a testbed with 15 devices, FibRA-Guard was able to identify sources of packets with an average accuracy of 96%, proving to be a reliable solution towards wireless IPv6 networks secured against malicious Router Advertisements.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"660 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":"132161914","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}

D2D communication occurs between helper users and ordinary users, where helpers are able to cache contents and deliver these contents to ordinary users via D2D transmission upon request. The objective of the cache placement is maximizing the offloaded traffic and lighten the burden of the Base Station. We first formulate a single-shot cache placement problem as a Mixed Integer Linear Program (MILP) and obtain the optimal solution. We also propose three clustering algorithms and a cache placement algorithm. Then we tested the performance of these schemes under user and helper mobility. Cache placement is recomputed at a certain cache update periods, in order to take into account the changing topology. Simulation results show that the optimization framework designed for a single-shot scenario fails at challenging conditions, while the proposed algorithms is more robust to mobility.","PeriodicalId":412182,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 30th Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"18 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":"114906228","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 perform a comprehensive evaluation, we integrate several realistic models including mm-Wave antenna arrays, beamforming, mm-Wave propagation, and LOS probabilities. Our results show that cooperation and coordination among BSs are critical for UAV piloting using mm-Wave technology. We analyze the performance of mm-Wave links under three scenarios representing different levels of interference mitigation.

Measurement campaigns involving UAVs have shown that the path loss between UAVs and terrestrial base stations (BSs) is highly dependent on the UAV height, rendering previous line-of-sight (LoS) probability models inaccurate. In this paper, the coverage probability, average ergodic rate and area spectral efficiency are theoretically investigated based on a more realistic channel model, with height dependent LoS probabilities. Our results show that the long tail of the LoS probability function in UAV networks has an important performance impact on sparse networks where the BS density is low. Our new findings also show that the coverage of UAV-enabled networks may continuously decrease with the UAV density, since the LoS probability slowly declines with the link range.","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":"114963227","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}
