A Combination of Optimal Partitioning and Location Prediction to Assist Paging in Mobile Cellular Networks

The correlated both in space and time user mobility behavior can aid significantly in the localization of a moving terminal in the network coverage area. However, there is always some uncertainty in mobile user position and a network-wide search cannot be done. Therefore, a predictive paging scheme must always be combined with a location update strategy and a compatible algorithm to conduct the search. In this paper, we introduce a new strategy that combines an optimal partitioning of the location area (LA) with a model to predict user movements, based on the additional information of the cell where the last interaction between the network and the terminal took place. We study the performance of the strategy under delay bounds and different mobility and call arrival characteristics. It is found that the new scheme further minimizes signaling costs and enhances previous sequential paging algorithms.

A memory efficient parallel layered QC-LDPC decoder for CMMB systems

This paper presents a memory efficient architecture of layered decoder for the dual-rate LDPC codes in the China Multimedia Mobile Broadcasting (CMMB) system. An efficient scheme for reducing the memory block number is proposed to increase the memory usage efficiency, so that the quantity of memory bits, decoder area and power consumption is significantly reduced. At the same time, the memory structure keeps the “one cycle one layer access” timing schedule to achieve high decoding throughput. Furthermore, the early termination strategy is employed to further increase the throughput; a non-uniform quantization scheme and an area efficient calculation module are developed to further improve the memory efficiency and hardware resource efficiency, respectively. By using SMIC 130 nm 1P7M CMOS process, the decoder is implemented and the core area is 5.29 mm². The total memory bits consumption is only 130.5 K which consumes 2.53 mm² memory area.     

Impact of node distance on selfish replica allocation in a mobile ad-hoc network

Many data replication techniques have been proposed to minimize performance degradation caused by network partitioning in a mobile ad-hoc network. Most of them assume that all mobile nodes collaborate fully in terms of sharing their memory space. However, in reality, some nodes may selfishly decide to only cooperate partially, or not at all, with other nodes. Recently, a new approach to selfish replica allocation has been proposed to handle node selfishness. However, there is still much room for improvement. We empirically observe that the previous selfish replica allocation strategy suffers from long query delay and poor data accessibility, because it utilizes only non-selfish nodes that may be faraway nodes. In this paper, we propose a novel replica allocation strategy in the presence of selfish nodes, that takes into account both selfish behavior and node distance. Moreover, through a novel node leveling technique, we utilize the memory space of all connected nodes, including selfish nodes. The conducted simulations demonstrate that the proposed strategy outperforms existing replica allocation techniques in terms of data accessibility, query delay, and communication cost.

Asymmetric FCA for Downlink and Uplink Transmission in Clustered Multihop Cellular Network

A clustered multihop cellular network (CMCN) with virtual cells has been proposed to achieve the characteristics of macrocell/microcell hierarchically overlaid architecture by applying clustering techniques. As a complement to the traditional cellular networks, CMCN is able to incorporate the flexibility of ad hoc networks by allowing multihop transmission. In this paper, we first propose to use dedicated information ports (DIPs) as clusterheads for CMCN; then we analyze the performance of fixed channel assignment (FCA) for downlink transmission in CMCN. Two multi-dimensional Markov chain models are developed to study the call blocking probability. Due to the nature of multihop transmission in CMCN, channel assignment for uplink and downlink transmission is different and unbalanced. We then propose an asymmetric FCA (AFCA) for uplink and downlink transmission in CMCN. By making use of the proposed AFCA for uplink and downlink transmission, we can reduce the call blocking probability significantly as compared with the FCA for traditional single-hop cellular networks. The salient contribution is that the proposed CMCN with AFCA scheme can increase the spectrum efficiency and the system capacity by introducing the structure of CMCN with DIPs for virtual microcells.     

Autonomous and teleoperation control of a mobile robot

The present work proposes an autonomous tracking control system and a control structure to combine autonomous and teleoperation commands in a bicycle-type mobile robot. This compounded operation renders great flexibility to the control system of the mobile robot. For autonomous operation, a simple tracking controller that includes compensation of the robot dynamics is developed. This tracking control system is proved to be stable in the sense that it asymptotically reaches the tracking objective. Teleoperation with visual access to the robot’s workspace is integrated via a joystick with the autonomous operation of the robot. Simulations and experimental results on a prototype robot show the feasibility and performance of the proposed control system.
