Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology had greatly boosted the performance of wireless networks by introducing beamforming, which provides many benefits allowing wider coverage and better data rates. We propose a capacity-aware coverage study for Wi-Fi networks deployment in rural areas. We make our coverage estimations based on link budget calculations. We compare different deployment strategies and discuss the added value of beamforming. Our results are based on an analytical link budget estimation and a simulation study using the NS-3 simulator. We added all the needed functionalities on top of the existing Wi-Fi Module in NS-3. Results in terms of capacity, coverage, and number of access points deployed are discussed. We also developed an empirical analytical model that is based on the simulation results, which helps in estimating performance results for any deployment field size.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"79 5-6","pages":"361 - 379"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138503481","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}

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology is crucial in wireless communication as it leverages multiple antennas to enhance data throughput, increase link reliability, and mitigate signal interference, resulting in improved communication performance. The combination of MIMO and NOMA represents a transformative synergy that harnesses the benefits of both technologies, facilitating efficient spectrum utilization, higher data rates, and improved reliability in wireless networks. This makes it particularly valuable in the fifth-generation (5G) era and beyond. This paper investigates the performance of majority-based transmit antenna selection and maximal ratio combining (TAS-maj/MRC) in MIMO-NOMA networks. We derive a closed-form expression for the exact bit error rate (BER) for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation in Nakagami-<i>m</i> fading channels. Moreover, asymptotic expressions are obtained in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region to get further insight into the BER behavior of the system. Finally, we verify the analytical results’ accuracy through simulations. The results demonstrate that diversity and code gains are achieved. In addition, the BER performance is significantly improved as the number of receive antennas increases or channel condition enhances.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"79 7-8","pages":"567 - 576"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138503479","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}

Fog computing (FC), edge computing (EC), and mobile edge computing (MEC) (or flying edge computing FEC) are gaining exponential attention and becoming attractive solutions to bring CC processes within reach of users and address computation-intensive offloading and latency issues.

The overstated emergence of the all-encompassing fifth generation (5G) of mobile systems begs the question of the future of the new generation of IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) solutions. However, Wi-Fi has certain advantages compared to cellular systems in different ways: (i) a fast-paced standardization process; (ii) a diverse, agile, and highly competitive manufacturer base; and (iii) a broad base of early adopters for both office and house wireless networks. In addition, the rise of enabling technologies, such as software-defined wireless networks, may allow more robust and reliable Wi-Fi networks to bridge gaps in Wi-Fi technology to reach several vertical sectors. This review provides a technical analysis of the relationship between broadband wireless and Wi-Fi technologies. Wi-Fi has taken decisive steps with the evolution of several standards, and there is already evidence that Wi-Fi may partially (or completely) fulfill 5G’s strict service requirements. Next, we discussed the Wi-Fi and 5G convergence, which allow more control over user experiences and provide better service. This review concludes with an analysis of open challenges in the convergence of 5G and Wi-Fi systems.

Because accelerators are expensive and consume much power, it is desirable to increase the efficiency of accelerator utilization by sharing accelerators among multiple servers over a network. However, task offloading over a network has the problem of latency due to network processing overhead in remote offloading. This paper proposes a low-latency system for accelerator offloading over a network. To reduce the overhead of remote offloading, we propose a system composed of (1) fast recombination processing of chunked data with a simple protocol to reduce the number of memory copies, (2) polling-based packet receiving check to reduce overhead due to interrupts in interaction with a network interface card, and (3) a run-to-completion model in network processing and accelerator offloading to reduce overhead with context switching. We show that the system can improve performance by 66.40% compared with a simple implementation using kernel protocol stack and confirmed the performance improvement with a virtual radio access network use case as a low-latency application. Furthermore, we show that this performance can also be achieved in practical usage in data center networks.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"79 3-4","pages":"179 - 196"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12243-023-00994-3.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135869132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Successive interference cancellation (SIC) is among the major enhancements of the physical layer. Considering the classic representatives of random access protocols, Slotted ALOHA and Channel Sensing Multiple Access (CSMA), we show that two regimes can be identified as a function of the communication link spectral efficiency. In case of high levels of spectral efficiency, multi-packet reception enabled by SIC is of limited benefit. Sum-rate performance is dominated by the effectiveness of the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. On the contrary, for low spectral efficiency levels, sum-rate performance is essentially dependent on physical layer SIC capability, while the MAC protocol has a marginal impact. Limitations due to transmission power dynamic range are shown to induce unfairness among nodes. However, the unfairness issue fades away when the system is driven to work around the sum-rate peak achieved for low spectral efficiency. This can also be confirmed by looking at Age of Information (AoI) metric. The major finding of this work is that SIC can boost performance, while still maintaining a fair sharing of the communication channel among nodes. In this regime, the MAC protocol appears to play a marginal role, while multi-packet reception endowed by SIC is prominent to provide high sum-rate, low energy consumption, and low AoI.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50761,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Telecommunications","volume":"79 5-6","pages":"343 - 360"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12243-023-00992-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136012551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
