Since time is limited, it is highly advised that you first try to solve the exercises (Part II) at home, then have a look at the solutions (Part III), and, finally, ask questions during the exercises sessions. Part II Exercises 1 Reservation schemes 1.1 For each of the following reservation schemes: • Briefly describe how the scheme separates multiple users. • List one advantage and one disadvantage of the scheme. • Give an example of a system in which the scheme is used. 1. Space Division Multiple Access 2. Time Divison Multiple Access 3. Frequency Division Multiple Access 4. Code Division Multiple Access 1.2 Consider a combined TDMA/FDMA scheme in which each slot lasts for 10ms, with a guard time of 1ms between slots. The data rate on each channel is 1 Mbps, and there are 3 channels, each with a bandwidth of 100 MHz and guard band of 5 MHz. In each slot, there is an 80% chance that the device allocated that slot transmits data, and a 20% chance that the device is silent. If a device transmits, it uses the entire slot. What is the rate of work for this scheme? 1.3 1. Explain the steps of the Reservation ALOHA algorithm and draw a diagram of its operation. 3 2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using this algorithm over slotted ALOHA? 3. Consider a Reservation ALOHA system with N nodes. Assume a Poissonian packet generation process for each node with parameter λ. The round length is Ts seconds | that is, every Ts seconds contains a reservation phase and a data transmission phase. Each data transmission phase contains k timeslots. What is the probability that a given node will have at least one packet to send in the second round? You can assume that all nodes begin the first round with no packets queued to send. 4. What is the expected number of nodes with at least one packet to send in the second round? 5. Each node that wishes to transmit selects a slot to reserve at random (with a uniform distribution), and each node may only send one packet per round, even if it has more packets queued to send. For N = 3, what is the probability of a collision in the reservation phase of the second round? 1.4 Check whether those chip codes are mutually orthogonal: a) 1)1111 2) 1 -1 1 -1 3) 1 -1 -1 1 b) 1)11111111 2) 1 -1 -1 1 1 -1 -1 1 c) 1) 1 1 -1 -1 -1 -1 1 1 2) 1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 1 1 1.5 Below is a diagram of the signal transmitted from two nodes, A and B, which are sending data on a wireless channel at the same time using code division multiple acces (CDMA). Each node has two bits of data to send and its own CDMA code as pictured (with a spreading factor of 4). Draw the signals transmitted by nodes A and B. Draw the resulting (total) signal as it would appear to a receiving node that is in range of both transmitters. 4 Node A 1 data 0 -1 1 CDMA code 0 -1 2 1 transmitted 0 signal -1 -2 Node B 1 data 0 -1 1 CDMA code 0 -1 2 1 transmitted 0 signal -1 -2 Receiver node 2 1 received 0 signal -1 -2 Page 3 Below is a diagram of a signal received on the same network, along with the receiver's CDMA code. Draw the signal after decoding at the receiver, and the resulting data received. 1.6 In 802.11 PCF, why is there a sudden, large increase in delay once the number of users becomes too high? 1.7 We are using a technology that allows the following modulations with the corresponding data rates: Modulation type Coding rate Data rate (Mbps) SINR threshold (dB) BPSK 1/2 6.5 1.7609 QPSK 1/2 13 3.0103 QPSK 3/4 19.5 3.9794 16-QAM 1/2 26 4.7712 16-QAM 3/4 39 5.4407 64-QAM 2/3 52 6.0206 64-QAM 3/4 58.5 6.5321 64-QAM 5/6 65 6.9897 ; we have two transmitters and two receivers, that are positioned in a way they are both d=10m from the two transmitters; transmitter 2 needs a data rate of 50 Mbps while transmitter 1 just needs 15 Mbps; choose an appropriate modulation scheme and transmission power in order to ensure the simultaneous transmission from both the transmitters; assume there is no fast fading but only a pathloss such that, if Ω is the received power in W, d is the distance in meters from Tx to Rx and P the transmitted power in W, we have Ω = P d−4. 6 Part III Solutions 2 Reservation schemes 2.1 a) SDMA separates users in physical space, by segmenting space into different cells or sectors, for example by using directional antennas. Advantage: very simple to implement. Disadvantage: inflexible as the antennas are typically fixed, i.e. it is difficult to change the segmentation dynamically. Example system: GSM (cells) b) TDMA separates users by dividing time into timeslots, then each user has one or more slots when they are able to transmit and no other users may transmit. Advantage: fully digital so easy to adjust dynamically. Disad- vantage: synchronization can be difficult, especially considering multipath propagation. Example system: GSM c) FDMA separates users by allocating different frequency bands to different users. Advantage: simple and robust. Disadvantage: spectrum is a scarce resource so it may be difficult to have enough for all users. Example system: GSM d) CDMA uses orthoganal (or pseudo-orthoganal) codes to separate users. Users all transmit simultaneously but each user combines their data with their assigned code. A receiver can then decode a given transmission if they know the user's code. Advantage: flexible and less frequency planning needed since all users can use the entire spectrum all the time. Disadvantage: complex receivers are required. Example system: UMTS 2.2 The rate of work is given by n 1 X η = ρ n × ν i i=1 For each slot, we have 10 ms of time that can be used, plus 1 ms guard time, and a rate of 1 Mbps, giving 10 1 × 220 × = 953250:909 bits=s 11 for each channel. For each channel, we have 100 Mhz in usable bandwidth and a guard band of 5 MHz. The total resources available for each channel are then 1 × 220 ν = = 0:0099864381 bits=Hz=s 105 × 106 7 (i.e. the total bandwidth available at the given data rate). In each slot, we have an 80% chance to use the slot, so we have a utilised rate of ρ = 0:8×0:0099864381 = 0:00798915048, which is the same across all the three channels. So we have: 3 1 X η = 0:00798915048 3 × 0:0099864381 i=1 = 0:8 2.3 1. In Reservation ALOHA, there are two phases: a reservation phase, followed by a transmission phase. In the reservation phase, stations reserve slots for the transmission phase using ALOHA. If the transmission phase has k slots, then the reservation phase is divided into k mini-slots (of much shorter duration than the transmission slots), so that a transmission in mini-slot i reserves transmission slot i. These two phases are then repeated. See the MAC slides, pp12-13, for a diagram. 2. Advantage: efficiency can be significantly increased (up to 80% from only 36% for slotted ALOHA), as no collisions are possible in the transmission phase. Disadvantage: delay increases due to waiting for the reserved timeslot, especially if a collision occurs during the reservation, and syn- chronisation is required between all stations to keep the reservation list consistent. 3. P(at least one packet to send) = 1 - P(no packets to send) e−λTs · (λT )0 P = 1 − s 0! = 1 − e−λTs . −λT 4. N · 1 − e s 5.

  • Medium Access Control Protocols of the PRMA Type in Non-Geostationary Satellites
    Medium Access Control Protocols of the PRMA Type in non-Geostationary Satellites Giovanni Giambene [email protected] Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell’Informazione Università degli Studi di Siena Via Roma, 53 53100 Siena, Italy Abstract The challenge of future mobile multimedia networks is to provide worldwide tetherless communication services. Low Earth Orbit-Mobile Satellite Systems (LEO-MSSs) will play a significant role by filling the coverage gaps of future generation terrestrial cellular networks. This lecture presents research results on demand-assignment Medium Access Control (MAC) schemes able to share efficiently LEO satellite resources among users and to support isochronous traffics and the ubiquitous access to the Internet. 1 Introduction Future generation mobile communication systems will achieve a global coverage by integrating a terrestrial cellular component and a satellite one [1],[2]. The satellite system will play a complementary role with respect to its terrestrial counterpart; typical operational environments for satellite systems are regions where the provision of the terrestrial coverage is either technically or economically unfeasible. The role of mobile satellite systems is: (i) to allow the global roaming of users; (ii) to provide Quality of Service (QoS) levels comparable with those of terrestrial systems; (iii) to permit the rapid deployment of mobile services in underdeveloped regions. The satellite component of future mobile communication systems will be based (partly or totally) on non-geostationary constellations. In particular, this study focuses on Low Earth Orbit – Mobile Satellite Systems (LEO-MSSs), since they are close to the earth and allow the use of low-power lightweight mobile terminals [3]. In what follows, an earth-fixed cell system [4] will be assumed where antenna beams are steered so as to point towards a given cell on the earth during the satellite visibility time.

  • Performance Evaluation of Framed Slotted ALOHA with Reservation Packets and Succesive Interference Cancelation for M2M Networks $
    Performance Evaluation of Framed Slotted ALOHA with Reservation Packets and Succesive Interference Cancelation for M2M Networks I Vicente Casares-Giner, Jorge Martinez-Bauset, Canek Portillo Instituto ITACA, Universitat Polit`ecnica de Val`encia,Spain Abstract Random access protocols like ALOHA have been considered for machine-to-machine (M2M) communication in future networks for their simplicity of operation. This paper evaluates the performance of a Frame Slotted-ALOHA protocol that uses reservation and data packets (FSA-RDP), in a scenario where a controller collects data packets transmitted by a finite number of M2M devices. In FSA-RDP, frames of variable duration are divided in two parts, the reservation and data subframes. During the reservation subframe, active devices send short reservation packets to the controller. The controller assigns reserved slots in the data subframe to those devices that succeeded with the reservation. At devices, the FIFO service discipline and two queue management schemes, tail drop and push-out, have been considered. When the queue size is of one packet, we develop a discrete-time Markov chain to evaluate the protocol performance, including the cumulative distribution function of the delay of data packets that are successfully transmitted. Analytical results are validated by extensive simulations. The simulation model is also used to evaluate the system performance when larger queues are used. In addition, we study the impact that implementing Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) at the controller has on the system performance. We also evaluate the performance of implementing SIC at the controller together with Irregular Repetition Slotted ALOHA (IRSA) to send the reservation packets.

Alonso-Zaratez ∗KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. e-mail: [email protected] yUniversitat Politecnica` de Catalunya (UPC), Spain. e-mail: [email protected] zCentre Tecnologic` de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya (CTTC), Spain. e-mail: fckalalas, francisco.vazquez, [email protected] Abstract The vision of the Internet of Things (IoT) to interconnect and Internet-connect everyday objects and machines poses new challenges in the design of wireless communication networks. The design of Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols has been traditionally an intense area of research due to their high impact on the overall performance of wireless communications. The majority of research activities in this field deal with different variations of protocols somehow based on ALOHA, either with or without listen before talk, i.e., Carrier Sensing Multiple Access (CSMA). These protocols operate well under low traffic loads and low number of simultaneous devices. However, they suffer from congestion as the traffic load and the number of devices increase. For this reason, unless revisited, the MAC layer can become a bottleneck for the success of the IoT. In this paper, we provide an overview of the existing MAC solutions for the IoT, describing current limitations and envisioned challenges for the near future. Motivated by those, we identify a family of simple algorithms based on Distributed Queueing (DQ) which can operate for an infinite number of devices generating any traffic load and pattern.

Nail Akar(Advisor) Ezhan Kara¸san Mehmet Akif Yazici Approved for the Graduate School of Engineering and Science: Ezhan Kara¸san Director of the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT RESERVATION FRAME SLOTTED ALOHA FOR MULTI-CLASS IOT NETWORKS Mahzeb Fiaz M.S. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering Advisor: Nail Akar January 2019 The Internet of Things (IoT) is a promising technology capable of revolutionizing our work and daily lives. ALOHA based medium access schemes are widely used in IoT applications due to their low complexity despite lower throughput figures. In this study, we aim to improve the performance of Frame Slotted Aloha (FSA) for a single hop IoT network without increasing the overall complexity. Duty cy- cling is a key concept for managing energy consumption of wireless networks with battery powered nodes having maximum duty cycle constraints. The goal of this study is to improve the performance of frame slotted Aloha by exploiting duty cycle patterns in these networks and using reservations in advance. We discuss the system model for a single class IoT network and study via simulations the performance of Reservation Frame Slotted Aloha (RFSA) as compared to FSA, as well as the performance implications of different system parameters related to traffic patterns.

  • Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) for Joint Speech and Data Systems
    Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) for Joint Speech and Data Systems Jani Lakkakorpi Nokia Research Center P.O. Box 407 FIN-00045 NOKIA GROUP Finland [email protected] November 23, 2002 Abstract. Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) can be viewed as a combination of TDMA and slotted ALOHA protocols. In PRMA, there are speech and data terminals that communicate with a base station. Downlink packets are scheduled by the base station, but for uplink access (first packet of a talkspurt or any data packet), terminals use slotted ALOHA. Speech terminals (and some data terminals, too) can make slot reservations for future frames. PRMA can also be seen as a kind of statistical multiplexing scheme. Statistical multiplexing gain comes from the fact that speech terminals are equipped with speech activity detectors and thus they transmit packets only during talkspurts. 1 Introduction Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) was first introduced in 1988 in IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference. Several papers on PRMA and its variants (from the original authors and other researchers) have emerged since then. PRMA combines contention and reservations: after gaining access to a channel, “periodic” sources are able to reserve subsequent time slots while “random” sources have to contend for every packet. Both periodic and random sources use contention (basic slotted ALOHA) to gain access. This report does not present any new research results – it only tries to cover the fundamentals of Packet Reservation Multiple Access and the most important enhancements to the scheme. The rest of the report is organized as follows: section 2 explains the basic mechanisms that are used in PRMA and where they come from, section 3 gives performance figures both in ideal conditions and with slow & fading channels, section 4 introduces Integrated Packet Reservation Multiple Access (IPRMA), sections 5 and 6 present some analysis on PRMA and a few suggested modifications, while section 7 concludes the report with discussion.

  • Analysis of the LTE Access Reservation Protocol for Real-Time Traffic Henning Thomsen, Nuno K
    1 Analysis of the LTE Access Reservation Protocol for Real-Time Traffic Henning Thomsen, Nuno K. Pratas, Cedomirˇ Stefanovic,´ Petar Popovski Abstract—LTE is increasingly seen as a system for serving tokens; (2) the BS is able to discern between reservation tokens real-time Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication needs. The activated by one or more than one users, i.e., the contention asynchronous M2M user access in LTE is obtained through phase has a ternary output (idle, single or collision). However, a two-phase access reservation protocol (contention and data phase). Existing analysis related to these protocols is based on assumption (1) does not hold in cellular networks such as the following assumptions: (1) there are sufficient resources in LTE, where the data phase has limited number of resources, the data phase for all detected contention tokens, and (2) the while the network load is variable; this implies that there is a base station is able to detect collisions, i.e., tokens activated by possibility that the users with real-time traffic that contended multiple users. These assumptions are not always applicable to successfully may not be assigned a data transmission slot at LTE - specifically, (1) due to the variable amount of available data resources caused by variable load, and (2) detection of collisions all [2]. Assumption (2), by default does not hold in LTE, in contention phase may not be possible. All of this affects as the BS may not able to discern if a token was activated transmission of real-time M2M traffic, where data packets have by one or multiple users [3, Sec.

  • Self-Managed Access Scheme for Demand Request in TDM/TDMA Star Topology Network
    Defence Science Journal, Vol. 69, No. 1, January 2019, pp. 80-86, DOI : 10.14429/dsj.69.11992 2019, DESIDOC Self-managed Access Scheme for Demand Request in TDM/TDMA Star Topology Network Trilok Kumar Saini* and S.C. Sharma# *DRDO-Defence Electronics Applications Laboratory, Dehradun - 248 001, India #Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee - 247 667, India *E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In demand assignment protocol, resources are granted on the basis of demand, governing some rules, policies in resource assignment and after the completion of need, resources are released back to the central pool for further requests. In star topology TDM/TDMA network of very small aperture terminals with a common request channel, a large number of participating terminals generate signalling packets on the request channel. It is desired that these terminals have higher chances of successful access to the media with a minimal number of the collision over the shared channel. Under these circumstances, the performance of the media access protocol is really crucial. Aloha is the simplistic technique to access the shared channel but suffers from extremely low throughput. Its successor slotted Aloha improves the throughput by cutting down the vulnerable period to half by agreeing on transmission at slot boundaries. This improvement is also not adequate to provide the better chances of packets getting through when multiple nodes are participating. The large latency network where one hop delay is of the order of 270 ms, feedback time and timeouts are also of high order this further worsen the problem. A self-managed access scheme for demand request that tries to reduce the collision by managing the multiple requests and distributing them over different slots is proposed.
