Recently, the use of mobile devices has increased, and mobile traffic is growing rapidly. In order to deal with such massive traffic, cognitive radio (CR) is applied to efficiently use limited-spectrum resources. However, there can be multiple communication systems trying to access the white space (unused spectrum), and inevitable interference may occur to cause mutual performance degradation. Therefore, understanding the effects of interference in CR-based systems is crucial to meaningful operations of these systems. In this paper, we consider a long-term evolution (LTE) system using additional spectra by accessing the TV white space, where low-power devices (LPDs) are licensed primary users, in addition to TV broadcasting service providers. We model such a heterogeneous system to analyze the co-existence problem and evaluate the interference effects of LPDs on LTE user equipment (UE) throughput. We then present methods to mitigate the interference effects of LPDs by 'de-selecting' some of the UEs to effectively increase the overall sector throughput of the CR-based LTE system.

The congestion control methods of an integrated heterogeneous traffic multiplexer are studied. The real-time traffics have preemptive priority over nonreal-time traffics in capturing the common output link. Also real-time traffics are transmitted with bandwidth reduction when the nonreal-time traffics are over the buffer threshold. The proposed model formulated the system as a continous time Markov process and is analysed using matrix equation. Time delay and average number of used channel are applied for performance parameters. In this study, a new control method with the sizable buffer threshold is introduced and the optimal congestion control can be obtained.

This paper considers the cell loss probability(CLP) in a multiplexer with the superposition of heterogeneous ON/OFF sources. The input traffic is composed of k classes. Traffic of class i is the superposition of M_(i) ON/OFF sources. Recently, the method based on the Markov modulated deterministic process(MMDP) is presented. Basically, it is the discretized model of stochastic fluid flow process(SFFP) and gives the CLP very fast, but under-estimates the CLP especially when the value of estimated CLP is very low. This paper develops the discretized model of Markov modulated Poisson process(MMPP). It is a special type of switched batch Bernoulli process(SBBP). Combining the transition probability matrix of MMDP and SBBP according to the state which is characterized by the arrival rate, this paper presents hybrid algorithm. The hybrid algorithm gives better estimate of CLP than that of MMDP and faster than SBBP.

This paper proposes a mathematical model to analyze call-and packet-level performance of the TD-CDMA/TDD system which could serve a flexible radio resource management against multi-type heterogeneous and asymmetrical traffic conditions. On call-level analysis, the mathematical model based on queueing theory performs multi-dimensional operations using random vectors or matrices to consider multiple types of traffic and also deal with asymmetrical up- and down-direction transmissions separately. Employing the mathematical model, we obtain rail blocking probability for each type of traffic and also the optimum switching-point with the smallest call flocking probability. And on packet-level analysis, employing a non-prioritized queueing scheme between circuit and packet calls, we solve 2-dimensional random vector problem composed of the queue length for packets and the number of circuit calls being served. Finally, packet-level performance is analyzed in terms of the packet loss probability and the buffer size required under mixed-traffic conditions of multiple types of circuit and packet calls.

By the newly emerging Network access technology, we face the new heterogeneous network environment. The required level of service quality and diversity are now multiplied by the increment of wireless service subscribers. Focusing on the co-existence of multiple access network technology and the complex service needs of users, the wireless service operators should present the stable service quality for every user. The service operators should build the new operation framework which combines the pre-established networks and newly adopted ones. Our problem is finding the optimal heterogeneous network operation framework. We suggest a market-based marginal cost function for evaluating the relative value of resource of each network and develop the whole new heterogeneous network operation framework.

Since the introduction of competition in the telecommunication market due to the growth of the interconnection between heterogeneous networks, particularly fixed and mobile networks, the interconnection charge based on traffic-sensitive (TS) and non-traffic-sensitive (NTS) costs has become more important. Although there have been many studies of the public switched telephone network (PSTN), previous studies of TS and NTS costs in mobile networks are very few. In this paper, as a pilot study, we propose three criteria and a procedure for the classification of TS and NTS costs based on mobile systems. The three criteria are the following: function type, investment requirement, and main exhaust driver. Moreover, for a CDMA mobile system, strongly TS, strongly NTS, and mixed components are classified by the proposed criteria and procedure. The proposed criteria, procedure, and classification can provide a systematic and useful guideline to decide the scope of mobile facilities and to determine the terminating cost on mobile networks from fixed networks.

Next generation wireless network is evolving toward IP-based network that can various provide multimedia services. A challenge in wireless mobile Internet is support of quality of service over wireless access networks. DiffServ architecture is proposed for evolving wireless mobile Internet. In this paper we propose an algorithm for optimal buffer partitioning which requires the minimal channel capacity to satisfy the QoS requirements of input traffic. We used a partitioned buffer with size B to serve a layered traffic at each DiffServ router. We consider a traffic model with a single source generates traffic having J $(J\geq2)$ quality of service (QoS) classes. QoS in this case is described by loss probability $\varepsilon_j$. for QoS class j. Traffic is admitted or rejected based on the buffer occupancy and its service class. Traffic is generated by heterogeneous Markov-modulated fluid source (MMFS).

This paper proposes a continuous-time queuing model of a shared-buffer packet switch and an approximate algorithm. N arrival processes have heterogeneous busty traffic characteristics. The arrival processes are modeled by Coxian distribution with order 2 that is equivalent to Interruped Poisson Process. The service time is modeled by Erlang distribution with r stages. First the approximate algorithm performs the aggregation of N arrival processes as a single state variable. Next the algorithm discompose the queuing system into N subsystems which are represented by aggregated state variables. And the balance equations based on these aggregated state variables are solved for by iterative method. Finally the algorithm is validated by comparing the results with those of simulation.

We propose an advanced BMPA (balanced multimedia packet allocation) scheme. The proposed scheme considers the optimal resource allocation problem in OFDMA system. When NRT (non-real time), RT (real time), multicast packets arrive at the same time in OFDMA system, the advanced BMPA chooses the best sub-carrier as a multicast channel for multicast packets, gives more weight to RT packets and multicast packets than NRT packets and allocates sub-carriers according to the total weight sum of packets in each user. With simulation results, this paper shows that the advanced BMPA scheme ensures QoS (long-term system throughput and multimedia packet delay) in heterogeneous traffic compared with multicast MU-WF (multi-user water-filling) and BMPA schemes.

Mobile traffic is increasing consistently, and mobile carriers are becoming more and more hard to meet this ever-increasing mobile traffic demand by means of additional installation of base stations. To overcome this problem, heterogeneous networks, which can reuse space and frequency by installing small cells such as femto cells in existing macro cells, were introduced. However, existing macro cell users are difficult to increase the spectral efficiency without the cooperation of femto owners. Femto owners are also reluctant to accommodate other mobile stations in their femto stations without proper incentive. In this paper, a method of obtaining the optimal incentive is proposed, which adopts a utility function based on the logarithm of throughput of mobile stations, and the incentive is calculated to maximize the utility of the entire network.
