Network scalability results in the front-haul load and computational complexity at the baseband unit (BBU) pool remaining constant irrespective of the number of UEs in the network. During the channel estimation phase, each RRH will acquire the channel state information (CSI) based on the received pilot signals from the UEs. With the available CSI, each RRH will decode/precode the desired UE information in uplink and downlink, respectively. However, in ultra-dense networks, pilot contamination is a major limitation that hugely impacts the system’s performance. To address this, we proposed an uplink pilot power optimization algorithm by considering the inter-user interference due to pilot sharing and RRH selection. In this algorithm, the pilot power coefficients are designed in such a way as to decrease the mean square error (MSE) of the channel estimates. To achieve this, we used the successive convex approximation method. Moreover, we derived a closed-form expression for achievable spectral efficiency (SE) per UE, which will be valid for any pilot/data power optimization and RRH selection scheme. The results show that the proposed algorithm significantly improves the system performance in the channel estimation phase and will be more suitable for urban environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139755092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, implementing complex security mechanisms and constant trust assurance for every interaction can be challenging. One solution is integrating blockchain technology into Zero Trust to provide security. Blockchain offers features such as data decentralization, anonymity, cryptography, and immutable record of transactions that can be utilized. This work proposes a mechanism for secure service session management using blockchain capabilities. Non-fungible tokens (NFT) are applied to access and provider tokens representing a policy agreement for service consumption. These tokens are mapped to the public addresses of entities registered in the blockchain.

These data may be privacy-sensitive, requiring efficient privacy-preserving mechanisms. The IoT is a distributed system of unprecedented scale, creating challenges for performance and security. Classic blockchains could be a solution by providing decentralization and strong security guarantees. However, they are not efficient and scalable enough for large scale IoT systems, and available tools designed for preserving privacy in blockchains, e.g. coin mixing, have a limited effect due to high transaction costs and insufficient transaction rates. This article provides a framework based on several technologies to address the requirements of privacy, security and performance of the Internet of Things. The basis of the framework is the IOTA technology, a derivative of blockchains relying on a directed acyclic graph to create transactions instead of a linear chain. IOTA improves distributed ledger performance by increasing transaction throughput as more users join the network, making the network scalable. As IOTA is not designed for privacy protection, we complement it with privacy-preserving mechanisms: merge avoidance and decentralized mixing. Finally, privacy is reinforced by introducing usage control mechanisms for users to monitor the use and dissemination of their data. A Proof of Concept is proposed to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed framework. Performance tests are conducted on this Proof of Concept, showing the framework can work on resource-constrained devices and within a reasonable time. The originality of this contribution is also to integrate an IOTA node within the usage control system, to support privacy as close as possible to the objects that need it.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"79 7-8","pages":"585 - 601"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139411438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The integration of IoT with cloud computing (CC) has enabled the creation of large-scale networks of interconnected smart devices and services. To provide optimal quality of service (QoS) for users, it is necessary to address the conflicting requirements of IoT services. The service selection problem is considered NP-hard and therefore requires using metaheuristic algorithms for efficient resolution. This paper presents a novel hybrid multi-objective metaheuristic, pRTMNSGA-III, which combines the strengths of RNSGA-III and TMNSGA-III to generate solutions that meet user preferences and eliminate unfavorable ones. To further optimize computational time, a parallel solution evaluation approach is employed. In addition, a more effective fuzzy membership function is proposed to select the best solution based on the requester’s preferred QoS. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on multiple datasets, and the results demonstrate its superiority over existing state-of-the-art algorithms, including RNSGA-III, TMNSGA-III, NSGA-III, pNSGA-II, NSGA-II, and NSPSO Experimental results demonstrate that pRTMNSGA-III outperforms existing algorithms by up to 37% in terms of the number of non-dominated solutions generated.</p>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139411442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simulation results, acquired through auction-based and free-marketplace RAN-sharing methods, were evaluated based on user equipment (UE) capacity, UE satisfaction rate, base station (BS) efficiency, and end-to-end latency parameters. These results were then compared to those of the existing static RAN. It is observed from the simulation results that the performance of the blockchain-oriented free-marketplace RAN-sharing mechanism is 35% more efficient in terms of UE capacity and 40.5% more efficient in terms of UE satisfaction rate when compared to existing static RAN with the increase as the number of players in RAN environments.
