Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have recently become a hot issue to support high link capacity in wireless access networks. The IEEE 802. I 1 standard which is mainly used for the network interface technology in WMNs supports up to 3 or 12 multiple channels according to the IEEE 802.11 specification. However, two important problems must be addressed when we design a channel assigmnent algorithm: channel dependency problem and channel scanning delay. The former occurs when the dynamic channel switching of an interface leads to the channel switching of other interfaces to maintain node connectivity. The latter happens per channel switching of the interface, and affects the network performance. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the Distance-Based Channel Assigmnent (DB-CA) scheme for multi-channel WMNs to solve such problems. In DB-CA, nodes just perform channel switching without channel scanning to communicate with neighboring nodes that operate on different channels. Furthermore, DB-CA minimizes the interference of channels being used by nodes near the gateway in WMNs. Our simulation results show that DB-CA achieves improved performance in WMNs.

This paper presents our performance evaluation after the way of minimizing waiting times between channel switching for eMBMS(evolved Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Services) technique in LTE-Advanced systems. Existing composition of MBMS using IGMP(Internet Group Management Protocol) transfers the data with Multicast from BM-SC(Broadcast Multicast Service Center) to eNB(evolevd Node B) and with Broadcast from eNB to UE(User Equipment). Therefore, in case of channel switching, IGMP Join report should be transferred to BM-SC and then wait user's contents to be retransferred from eNB. To achieve this, Subscriber Channel technique of priorities is used for minimizing waiting times between channel switching as UE broadcasts favorite channels in advance.

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive MIMO switching algorithm that provides the optimal trade-off between throughput and reliability of data in MIMO system. The proposed algorithm is based on the variable packet error predictor which is robust for channel estimation error, and we show that our algorithm has a better spectrum efficiency than the conventional MIMO switching techniques about 8 percent point.

Radio jamming attack is the most effective and easiest Denial-of-Service (DOS) attack in wireless network. In this paper, we proposed a multi-channel MAC protocol to mitigate the jamming attacks by using cognitive radio. The Cognitive Radio (CR) technology supports real-time spectrum sensing and fast channel switching. By using CR technologies, the legitimate nodes can perform periodic spectrum sensing to identify jamming free channels and when the jamming attack is detected, it can switch to un-jammed channel with minimum channel switching delay. In our proposed protocol, these two CR technologies are exploited for thwarting the jamming attacks.

In this paper, we consider an amplify-and-forward (AF) full-duplex relay network (FDRN) using simultaneous wireless information and power transfer, where a battery-free relay node harvests energy from the received radio frequency (RF) signals from a source node and uses the harvested energy to forward the source information to destination node. The time-switching relaying (TSR) protocol is studied, with the assumption that the channel state information (CSI) at the relay node is imperfect. We deliver a rigorous analysis of the outage probability of the proposed system. Based on the outage probability expressions, the optimal time switching factor are obtained via the numerical search method. The simulation and numerical results provide practical insights into the effect of various system parameters, such as the time switching factor, the noise power, the energy harvesting efficiency, and the channel estimation error on the performance of this network. It is also observed that for the imperfect CSI case, the proposed scheme still can provide acceptable outage performance given that the channel estimation error is bounded in a permissible interval.

In this paper, modeling of the communication channel occupancy characteristics at the base station in the wide area radio trunking syste has been performed. Using the results, mathematical analysis for the switching capacity at the network switch has also been done. Specificatlly, we propose a G/M/m queueing model for the single service area modeling, and analyze changes in call blockingprobabilities accoridng to changes in the burstness characteristics of group paging calls. As a result, we have observe dthat the channel occupancy variations become larger as the burstness characteristics become more apparent, to make the call blocking probability higher. Next, based on the single service area analysis, we have anayzed mathematically the average switching capacity required to serve mobile subscribers for a wide area radio trunking sytem, where multiple switching port assignments are required when the people in the same group are distributed over several base stations. Accordingly, we have observed that the average and the variance of switching channel occupancy are closely related to the mobility characteristics of subscribers, and that we need a netowrk switch having bigger capacity as subscribers show wider distribution. Especially, with the call dropping probability within 0.2%, a switch having about 5 to 6 times bigger can be required, compared with the one when the mobility of subscribers is mostly restricte dto a single service area.

Cache-based side-channel attacks have achieved more attention along with the development of cloud computing technologies. However, current host-based mitigation methods either provide bad compatibility with current cloud infrastructure, or turn out too application-specific. Besides, they are defending blindly without any knowledge of on-going attacks. In this work, we present CacheSCDefender, a framework that provides a (Virtual Machine Monitor) VMM-based comprehensive defense framework against all levels of cache attacks. In designing CacheSCDefender, we make three key contributions: (1) an attack-aware framework combining our novel dynamic remapping and traditional cache cleansing, which provides a comprehensive defense against all three cases of cache attacks that we identify in this paper; (2) a new defense method called dynamic remapping which is a developed version of random permutation and is able to deal with two cases of cache attacks; (3) formalization and quantification of security improvement and performance overhead of our defense, which can be applicable to other defense methods. We show that CacheSCDefender is practical for deployment in normal virtualized environment, while providing favorable security guarantee for virtual machines.

This paper proposes an adaptive mode switching algorithm between two strategies in multiple antenna cellular networks:A single-user mode and a multi-user mode for the broadcast channel. If full channel state information is available at the base station, it is known that a multi user transmission strategy would outperform all single-user transmission strategies. In the absence of full side information, it is unclear what the capacity achieving method is, and thus there are few criteria to decide which of the myriad possible methods performs best given a system configuration. We compare a single user transmission and a multi user transmission with linear receivers in this paper where the transmitter and the receivers have multiple antennas, and find that neither strategy dom inates the other. There is instead a transition point between the two strategies. Then, the mode switching point is determined both ana lytically and numerically for a multiple antenna cellular downlink with correlation between transmit antennas.

Aiming at the high complexity of traditional single-channel demodulation algorithm for PCMA signals, a new demodulation algorithm based on neural network is proposed to reduce the complexity of demodulation in the system of non-cooperative PCMA communication. The demodulation network is trained in this paper, which combines the preprocessing module and decision module. Firstly, the preprocessing module is used to estimate the initial parameters, and the auxiliary signals are obtained by using the information of frequency offset estimation. Then, the time-frequency characteristic data of auxiliary signals are obtained, which is taken as the input data of the neural network to be trained. Finally, the decision module is used to output the demodulated bit sequence. Compared with traditional single-channel demodulation algorithms, the proposed algorithm does not need to go through all the possible values of transmit symbol pairs, which greatly reduces the complexity of demodulation. The simulation results show that the trained neural network can greatly extract the time-frequency characteristics of PCMA signals. The performance of the proposed algorithm is similar to that of PSP algorithm, but the complexity of demodulation can be greatly reduced through the proposed algorithm.
