Rapid, reliable and energy efficient programing code dissemination is a challenging issue and offer a programmable and flexible network architecture for software defined wireless networks (SDWNs). Many schemes for programing codes in large-scale network incur longer dissemination convergence time (DCT) in loss nature of wireless channels. In this paper, an integrated adjusted broadcast (TAB) scheme...
Developing with the node communication ability, the demand of ad-hoc networking has been turned from the terrestrial nodes to the air vehicles. In this paper, we discuss the composition of the communication system that can satisfy ad hoc network which node in this network has high speed (more than 100m/s), and long distance (10km-40km) to each other. Since the project is used in reality, the system...
Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) architecture has been a key technology and trend of the evolving fifth generation (5G) cellular networks, because it can achieve efficient cooperative communications and reduce deployment and operational costs. In C-RAN systems, although the fiber fronthaul has been a great candidate, we should continue to research the wireless fronthaul for the cost saving and flexible...
As one of the important steps in the process of self-organization of wireless ad hoc networks, neighbor discovery has substantial influence on the network performance. Especially in the modern warfare environment, the time consumption of neighbor discovery is very important for holding the battlefield situation. In this paper, we address the problem of neighbor discovery in ad hoc network with double-face...
This paper comes up with a SDN based On-Demand Routing Protocol, SVAO, which separates data forwarding layer and network control layer, as in SDN, to enhance the data transmission efficiency within VANETs. The Roadside Service Unit plays the role of Local Controller and is in charge of selecting vehicles to forward packet within a road segment. All the vehicles state in the road. Correspondingly,...
Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are characterized by node mobility and partitioned network topology, extremely long delivery latency, etc. Consequently, the traditional ad-hoc routing algorithms cannot work well in DTNs. In order to provide effective communication services in DTNs, in this paper, we propose an adaptive routing based on Node Performance and Encountering Probability (NPEP). NPEP chronologically...
Influence maximization refers to the number of influenced nodes reach to maximum by finding a set of seed nodes in social network. Due to peoples' excessive concentration of attention, sometimes, negative effects will appear during the influence propagation. However, the negative effects on influence propagation are not involved in the existing research work. In this paper, we consider the influence...
Delay/disruption tolerant network (DTN) is a typical high durable mobile transmission network. The mobile nodes in DTN move around and share information with each other without an end-to-end path in the network. The previous studies reveal that a main characteristic of such network is that mobile nodes in the networks currently move along with several same paths (namely, traces) frequently. Therefore,...
Aggregate statistics are becoming increasingly commonplace for mobile sensing applications which crowdsources data from individual users. In order to relieve user's concerns for privacy leakage, privacy preserving mechanisms have to be applied to enable the aggregator to compute aggregate statistics without learning each individual data. Although the aggregator will not know the value of the data,...
Participatory sensing systems can gather and process personal data to produce some knowledge about the world. In this setting, sensing data quality has been the primary focus of widespread adoption of many systems. To encourage more participants to contribute high-quality data, many incentive mechanisms have been proposed to motivate them. Unfortunately, this brings about some other new issues. Firstly,...
A vehicle's fuel consumption is strongly related to both its loading and the driver's driving behavior, such as aggressive/tender acceleration, improper/proper gear change or running/stopping the engine while waiting. This paper introduces EasyRoute, an economical route recommendation system for modern vehicles, implemented in smartphones, to improve fuel efficiency. EasyRoute senses the vehicle's...
Under the influence of multipath effects and small scale fading, the robustness and reliability of the existing human detection methods based on radio frequency signals are easy to be impaired. In this paper, we propose a novel design that using the multi-layer filtering of channel state information (CSI) to identify moving targets in dynamic environments and analyze the gait periodicity of human...
With the development of acoustic localization schemes using mobile devices, keystroke detection has received tremendous attention from the academia and industry. Currently, most of the existing systems focus on the recognition of a single keystroke and they are limited by several restrictions. In this paper, we consider the idea of signal variation caused by the combination of two combined keystrokes,...
This paper studies social influence from the perspective of users' characteristics. The importance of users' characteristics in word-of-mouth applications has been emphasized in economics and marketing fields. We model a category of users called mavens where their unique characteristics nominate them to be the preferable seeds in viral marketing applications. In addition, we developed and verified...
Green telecommunication is becoming an important part in designing the wireless communication systems. Small Cell Network (SCN) is considered as one of the most promising techniques in the future cellular networks. In order to reduce the high power consumption caused by dense deployment of small base stations (BSs), we first propose a new decentralized precoding algorithm which aims to maximize the...
With the rapid growth of bandwidth-intensive applications, Carrier Aggregation (CA) has been introduced in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) Networks to provide higher data rates. In this paper, we investigate the joint resource block allocation and link adaptation problem with CA in LTE-A dwonlink. The problem is formulated as an Integer Programming problem aimed at maximizing the cell throughtput...
Distributed TDMA medium access protocol plays an important role in stabilizing the throughput under various network states. The major challenge of implementing such protocol lies in the difficulty of slot assignment. Previous works provide a variety of mechanisms to implement the collision-free slot assignment. However, when network topology changes frequently, existing approaches suffer from low...
