In addition to analysing the directivities and relative efficiencies at 2.44GHz for different body positions, the study considers Sector and Slice analysis of the radiation patterns. In Sector analysis, the directivity is averaged for 12 azimuth-elevation sectors, while in Slice analysis, it is averaged for 28 azimuth sectors over the full elevation. It is shown that the antenna efficiency due to body blockage can be as low as 23% relative to the chest position efficiency, and directivities ranges from 5.4 to 10.5dBi for the antennas at different orientations. The Sector analysis identifies highest average signal levels, which are between table and door height for the dipole and above door height for the patch. The Slice analysis, which doesn't account for access point or user heights, shows average directivities that peak at 5.1 and 4.4dBi for the dipole and patch antenna, respectively. Using these antennas as part of a switch diversity system would improve the average directivity by approximately 7dBi in regions of low signal levels, and hence are potentially useful for wristbands and smart clothing.","PeriodicalId":6484,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 84th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall)","volume":"46 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75602287","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 provide an in- depth analysis with regard to the path loss (gain) and large-scale signal shadow fading, and propose a simple propagation model which can be used to predict cellular signal levels in similar deep- indoor scenarios. The measurement results indicate that the signal at 800 MHz band penetrates external concrete walls to reach the lower levels, while for 2000 MHz wall openings are required for the signal to propagate. It is also evident from the study that the shadow fading at different levels of an underground garage are highly correlated. The proposed frequency-independent floor attenuation factor (FAF) is shown to be in range of 5.2 dB per meter deep. Therefore, the attenuation rate in the z dimension is much higher than the in-building attenuation in x and y dimension, which is often assumed at 0.6 dB/m.","PeriodicalId":6484,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 84th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall)","volume":"7 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76294256","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 this paper, we consider the uplink of a hybrid HetNet with femtocells overlaid on a macrocell, and formulate a two layer game theoretic framework to maximise the energy efficiency (EE) while optimising the network resources. The outer layer allows each femtocell access point (FAP) to maximise the data rate of its users by selecting the frequency band either from the sub-6 GHz and the mmWave. The solution to this non-cooperative game can be obtained by using pure strategy Nash equilibrium. The inner layer ensures the energy efficient user association method subject to the minimum rate and maximum transmission power constraints by using dual de-composition approach. Simulation results show that the proposed hybrid HetNet scheme exploiting the mmWave frequency band improves the sum-rate and EE in comparison to the scenario where all the networks operate at sub-6 GHz frequency band. The performance can further be enhanced by incorporating the power control mechanism.","PeriodicalId":6484,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 84th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall)","volume":"47 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81617499","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}

VANETs have attracted a great deal of attention in the research community in recent years, with the main focus being on their safety applications. One of the major challenges of vehicular networks is designing an efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol which can cope with the hidden node problem, the high speed of the nodes, the frequent changes in topology, the lack of an infrastructure, and various QoS requirements. Motivated by this observation, we present a fully distributed and location-based TDMA scheduling scheme for VANETs, named DTMAC. The main goal of this work is to propose a MAC protocol that can provide a reliable broadcast service with bounded access delay, while reducing access collisions and merging collisions with various vehicle densities without having to use expensive and complex spectrum mechanisms such as CDMA or OFDMA. An analytical model of the average access collision probability has been derived, which can be used to evaluate the performance of DTMAC and validate the simulation results under different traffic conditions. The simulation results reveal that DTMAC significantly outperforms VeMAC in terms of transmission collisions and broadcast coverage.","PeriodicalId":6484,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 84th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall)","volume":"76 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83191991","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}

Our main interest in on multi-stream communications when BSs do not have access to channel state information. Adopting stochastic geometry we evaluate the network-wise coverage performance of MIMO-MRC assuming maximum signal- to-interference ratio (SIR) cell association rule. Coverage analysis in MIMO-MRC HetNets is challenging due to inter-stream interference and statistical dependencies among streams' SIR values in each communication link. Using the results of stochastic geometry we then investigate this problem and obtain tractable analytical approximations for the coverage performance. We then show that our results are adequately accurate and easily computable. Our analysis sheds light on the impacts of important system parameters on the coverage performance, and provides quantitative insight on the densification in conjunction with high multiplexing gains in MIMO HetNets. We further observe that increasing multiplexing gain in high- power tier can cost a huge coverage reduction unless it is practiced with densification in femto-cell tier.","PeriodicalId":6484,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE 84th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall)","volume":"203 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75715127","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}
