IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN standard specifies the air interface of fixed point-to-multipoint broadband wireless access systems providing multiple services. Among the service classes supported by the wireless MAN, the best effort service class is ranked on the lowest position in priority and is assisted by a MAC scheme based on reservation ALOHL Such MAC scheme must include a number of components, while many of them are not specified in the standard. In this paper, we thus reveal main components of a MAC scheme supporting the best effort service and present candidate schemes implementing such components. Combining schemes for implementing components, we then construct distinctive MAC schemes supporting best effort service. In designing a MAC scheme, the delay performance induced by the scheme should be considered since scarce resource may be available for the best effort service after the preemptive resource occupation by other service classes. In this paper, we focus on the delay fairness among the subscriber stations using the best effort service. For evaluating a MAC scheme in delay fairness, we present two definitions of delay fairness and provide a criterion for optimal MAC scheme according to each definition of delay fairness. Using a simulation method we investigate the mean delay performance exhibited by each MAC scheme arid find an optimal scheme in delay fairness. From numerical examples, we observe that SR/ED/PG＋P scheme has strong delay fairness compared with MR/ED/PG＋P and SR/ED/PG＋D schemes according to a definition of delay fairness. However, other schemes are rather shown to have better delay fairness when the other definition is adopted.

Although the maximum sum-rate capacity of multiple-input multiple output(MIMO) broadcast channels(BCs) can be achieved by dirty-paper coding(DPC), the results were obtained without fairness considerations in uncorrelated MIMO channels. In this paper, we propose new multiuser scheduling algorithms, which find a best user set for approaching the maximum sum-rate capacity while maintaining fairness among users. We analyze the performance of the proposed algorithms using zero-forcing dirty paper coding(ZF-DPC) in the correlated MIMO BCs for throughput and delay fairness, respectively. Numerical results demonstrate that a large time window can reduce the average throughput difference between users, but it increases head-of-line(HOL) delay jitters in the case of delay fairness.

Using various offset times to separate differential services is the most common form of service differentiation in optical burst switching networks. In this approach, a larger offset time is given to a higher priority burst, but it causes this burst to have a longer delay. One solution to this problem is to adjust the burst assembly time so that the buffering delay of the higher priority burst is always shorter than that of the lower priority burst. However, this adjustment causes another problem, called delay unfairness, for bursts with differential priorities that share the same path to their destination. This article proposes a new solution for delay fairness using the burst assembly.

For high-speed networks, a new ring protocal is proposed in this paper. A ring network combined with destination removal can achieve much higher network throughput than the channel transmission rate. However, such a network exhibits fairness problems. Over a past few years, global fairness algorithms such as ATMR and Metaring have been proposed to solve such problems. But the ring access time delay and fairness in such networks are sensitive to the network parameters such as network size and traffic distribution. In addition to guaranteeing fair ring access to all nodes, there are several other important performance aspects in such networks. The one is that fairness is enforced while node throughputs are kept as high as possible. And another performance measure is access delay and more specifically Head-Of-Line(HOL) delay, i.e., the amount of time the first cell in the transmission buffer of a node has to wait before it accesses the ring. HOL delay is a mijor component in the transmission jitter of the synchronous traffic transmission. A key idea of the proposed ring protocol is to find the nodes that have much more chances to access the ring than any other nodes in the independently distributed node architecture. Since destined by many cells need to share a part of the bandwidths with the next node for the fairness in as much as performance degradation does not become critical. To investigate the performance behavior of the proposed ring protocol for various network condition,s several performance parameters wuch as ring access time delay, and throughput are compared with those of the ATMR and Metaring protocols using simulation package, SIMAN.

In this paper, new channel scheduling algorithms which reduce transmission delay caused by wireless network are proposed in AMC/TDM wireless data communication. The concept of the Proposed algorithms is based on the proportional fairness, M-LWDF, and performance-guaranteeing algorithm proposed by Xin Liu. The proposed algorithm can be applied to QoS guaranteeing services as well as best-effort services. Simulation results show that new algorithm reduced transmission delay upto 11.5% in case of proportional fairness algorithm and also decreased transmission delay unto 9% in case of M-LWBF algorithm.

In order to maximize the throughput and provide the fairness between users in MIMO-OFDM system, FATM(fairness-aware throughput maximization) scheduling algorithm was proposed. In this paper, a QoS-aware scheduling algorithms for MINO-OFDM system are proposed, each of which is based on FATM. These scheduling algorithms aim to satisfy the different service requirements of various service classes. Three proposed QoS scheduling algorithms called SPQ (Strict Priority Queueing), DCBQ (Delay Constraint Based Queuing), HDCBQ (Hybrid Delay Constraint Based Queuing) are compared through computer simulations. It is shown that HDCBQ algorithm outperforms other algorithms in satisfying different requirements of various service classes.

These days, the networks have exhibited HBDP (High Bandwidth Delay Product) characteristics. The legacy TCP slowly increases the size of the congestion window and drastically decreases the size of a congestion window. The legacy TCP has been found to be unsuitable for HBDP networks. TCP mechanisms for solving the problems of the legacy TCP can be categorized into the loss-based TCP and the delay-based TCP. Most of the TCP mechanisms use the standard slow start phase, which leads to a heavy packet loss event caused by the overshoot. Also, in the case of congestion avoidance, the loss-based TCP has shown problems of wastage in terms of the bandwidth and RTT (Round Trip Time) fairness. The delay-based TCP has shown a slow increase in speed and low occupancy of the bandwidth. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for improving the over shoot, increasing the speed of the bandwidth and overcoming the bandwidth occupancy and RTT fairness issues. By monitoring the buffer condition in the bottleneck link, the proposed scheme does congestion control and solves problems of slow start and congestion avoidance. By evaluating performance, we prove that our proposed scheme offers better performance in HBDP networks compared to the previous TCP mechanisms.

In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm for cellular relay networks by considering relay selection, variation of channel quality, and packet delay. In the networks, mobile users are equipped with not only cellular but also user relaying radio interfaces, where base station exploits adaptive high speed downlink channel. Our proposed algorithm selects a user with good cellular channel condition as a relay station for other users with bad cellular channel condition but can get access to relay link with good quality. This can achieve flexible packet scheduling by adjusting transmission rates of cellular link. Packets are scheduled for transmission depending on scheduling indexes which are calculated based on user's achieved transmission rate, packet utility, and proportional fairness of their throughput. The performance results obtained by using computer simulation show that the proposed scheduling algorithm is able to achieve high network capacity, low packet loss, and good fairness in terms of received throughput of mobile users.

Wi-Fi STAs in power saving mode described in the Wi-Fi specification can deteriorate the system performance such as throughput, time delay when they receive data frames from a Wi-Fi AP. This problem is caused by data frame reception failure due to the channel state, and it increases re-transmissions. In this paper, we propose a modified power saving mode considering fairness of Wi-Fi system in order to solve the problem. By simulation, we showed that data throughput can be increased without time delay degradation if the proposed method restricting the number of packet transmission attempts and HARQ are used.
