MEC brings compute and storage capabilities to the edge of the network closer to end-users. This enables faster data processing and improved user experience by reducing latency. MEC has the potential to decrease the burden on the core network by transferring computational and storage responsibilities to the edge, thereby reducing overall network congestion. Load balancing is critical for effectively utilizing the resources of the MEC. This ensures that the workload is distributed uniformly across all of the available resources. Load balancing is a complex task and there are various algorithms that can be used to achieve it, such as round-robin, least connection, and IP hash. To differentiate between heavily loaded and lightly loaded servers, current load balancing methods use an average response time to gauge the load on the edge server. Nevertheless, this approach has lower precision and may result in an unequal distribution of the workload. Our study introduces a dynamic threshold calculation technique that relies on a response-time threshold of the edge servers using K-means clustering. K-means based proposed algorithm classifies the servers in two sets (here K = 2), i.e., overloaded and lightly loaded edge servers. Consequently, workload is migrated from overloaded to lightly loaded servers to evenly distribute the workload. Experimental results show that the proposed technique reduces latency and improves resource utilization.","PeriodicalId":51194,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunication Systems","volume":"175 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140559895","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}

A central coordinator (CC) has been proposed to interrogate the IoT devices and control the uplink formations with the prediction of transmission quality using ML classifiers. The passive reflective reflectors (PRF) are utilized in the IoT devices, which replaced the power-consuming active transmitters, formulate the zero-power consuming transmission links. The communication performance of the passive link establishments from the IoT devices have been investigated in terms of quality factor (Q-factor), bit error rate (BER), and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under different optical wireless channel conditions and link lengths. The ML classifiers have been evaluated on the prediction of transmission quality, and the results suggested the Euclidean K-nearest neighbor (KNN) with ten number of neighbors for the implementation. The IoT devices located within 1.2 m from the CC require a transmission power of 0.5 mW for links carrying 10 Gbps data, which increases the energy efficiency to 20 Gbps/mW with transmission energy consumption of 0.05 pJ/bit.

However, existing border surveillance methods have difficulties with energy efficiency, latency, security, connectivity, optimal path selection and coverage. In this paper, a Voronoi Modified Red Fox (VMRF) algorithm is proposed as a solution to these problems. Initially, secure cluster head (CH) selection and clustering is performed using Secure Spatial Intelligence-Enhanced Voronoi Clustering (SIEVC) to boost energy efficiency, security, and extend network coverage and connectivity. The SIEVC algorithm dynamically selects CHs based on past and present trust, identity trust, and energy trust to identify malicious nodes and form optimal clusters for improved network coverage and connectivity. It also employs dynamic cluster size adjustment to maintain proximity between CHs and cluster members and utilizes node alternation to ensure equitable cluster sizes. This approach minimizes energy depletion, enhances network longevity, and improves load balancing. The algorithm introduces a node alternation mechanism to balance cluster sizes and prevent energy holes. This approach ensures secure and efficient CH selection and promotes even energy distribution. Then the proposed modified red fox (MRF) optimization method, based on the fitness metric, computes the energy-efficient and safe path for data transmission. Trust, energy, distance, link quality and traffic intensity are the factors that the fitness function takes into account. Finally, the data is transmitted to the base station (BS) through CH along the path with the highest fitness value. Then the proposed VMRF algorithm is evaluated using the NS-2 platform, and the outcomes are compared with existing protocols. Based on the evaluations, the VMRF algorithm performs better than existing ones in terms of delay, energy consumption, throughput, packet delivery ratio (PDR), malicious node detection ratio, and residual energy.","PeriodicalId":51194,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunication Systems","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140599896","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, node batteries cannot be replaced or easily recharged in harsh environments. Maximizing network lifetime remains a challenging issue in designing WSN routing. This paper introduces GTIACO, a novel metaheuristic clustering protocol. It employs an optimal cluster head function to determine cluster number and utilizes game theory for selecting optimal cluster heads. To optimize inter-cluster routing, improved ant colony optimization (ACO) is introduced to construct gathering paths from clusters to the base station. Both blind pathways, pheromone concentration, and angle factors are considered to improve path exploration and transmission efficiency in ant colonies. To assess network performance, various scenarios involving different base station placements and network densities are examined. Experimental results demonstrate GTIACO's superiority over LEACH, ACO, SEP, and PRESPE protocols in network lifetime, stability, energy, and throughput. The proposed GTIACO shows an improvement of at least 4.3% in network lifetime and 32.8% in network throughout. It exhibits superior stability and transmission efficiency across diverse network densities.","PeriodicalId":51194,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunication Systems","volume":"300 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140599555","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, the quick changes in signal strength impact the localization precision. By averaging over access points (APs) with multiple frequencies and/or heights, this article suggests a novel approach to lowering RSS fluctuation. Initially focused on the plane-earth loss model, the study was later extended to include a multipath indoor propagation scenario that was simulated. We used ray-tracing software to model the indoor propagation situation. This research takes into account the results of three distinct methods for averaging RSS: height averaging, frequency averaging, and hybrid frequency and height (FH) averaging, which combines the two. We discovered that the Height-only strategy considerably decreased the RSS variation with distance for both settings we looked at. Using the frequency-only method even further reduced the variation. Using the Hybrid FH technique greatly enhances the results. Root mean square error values of 4.427 dB, 3.70 dB, and 3.5 dB, respectively, are provided for the averaging approaches and the ideal scenario in which no variance occurs. Another finding is that averaging with APs that have double the height or frequency will not improve the RSS distance variation.","PeriodicalId":51194,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunication Systems","volume":"72 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140599553","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}

With the dramatic fall in the cost and size of wireless transceivers, it becomes more reasonable to apply multiple radios to achieve significant improvement in the rendezvous performance. However, most of the existing multiradio rendezvous algorithms are proposed for homogeneous CRNs where all the SUs are equipped with an equal number of radios and do not possess backward compatibility to SU with a single radio. In reality, the CRNs are heterogeneous in nature as SUs may have different numbers of radios. In this paper, a composite CH algorithm is proposed for an asynchronous and heterogeneous network to achieve blind rendezvous with full rendezvous diversity. An SU with m number radios are categorized into three groups those follow different channel hopping (CH) algorithms. The upper bound of the rendezvous latency is being evaluated with a brief theoretical and mathematical analysis. Extensive simulations have conducted for different performance metrics, and the results are compared with the state-of-art algorithms. Overall, the proposed algorithm shows better performance in heterogeneous CRNs.","PeriodicalId":51194,"journal":{"name":"Telecommunication Systems","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140201088","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}
