In this paper, we present a co-design methodology of dynamic optimal network-bandwidth allocation (ONBA) and adaptive control for networked control systems (NCSs) to optimize overall control performance and reduce total network-bandwidth usage. The proposed dynamic co-design strategy integrates adaptive feedback control with real-time scheduling. As part of this co-design methodology, a "closed-loop" ONBA algorithm for NCSs with communication constraints is presented. Network-bandwidth is dynamically assigned to each control loop according to the quality of performance (QoP) information of each control loop. As another part of the co-design methodology, a network quality of service (QoS)-adaptive control design approach is also presented. The idea is based on calculating new control values with reference to the network QoS parameters such as time delays and packet losses measured online. Simulation results show that this co-design approach significantly improves overall control performance and utilizes less bandwidth compared to static strategies.

Long Tenn Evolution (LTE) is the next generation mobile phone technology which has being standardized by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). In the existing mobile communication networks, voice traffic is delivered through circuit switched networks. In LTE, however, all kinds of traffic are transferred through IP based packet switched networks which has best-effort characteristic. Therefore, providing QoS in LTE system is difficult. In order to provide QoS in LTE, RRM is very important. Especially, in part of RRM, call admission control (CAC) performs an important function to reduce network congestion and guarantee a certain level of QoS for on-going calls. In this paper, we propose a CAC algorithm in order to provide QoS for various kinds of services in LTE system. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated with various simulation environments. The results show that the proposed algorithm provides QoS through rejections of requested calls. Especially, the proposed CAC algorithm can be satisfied with packet delay requirement defined in LTE specification.

In this paper, control theoretic approaches are proposed to guarantee QoS (Quality of Series) such as packet delay and packet loss of real-time traffic in high-speed communication network. Characteristics of variable rate real-time traÆc in communication networks are described. The mathematical model describing networks including source and destination nodes are suggested. By a traffic control mechanism, it is shown that worst-case end-to-end transfer delay of traffic can be controlled and packet loss can be prevented. The simulation shows results of delay control and buer level control to raise QoS in realtime traffic.

In IPv6 environment, the Internet Telephony, VoD(Video on Demand) and high capacity file exchange service will be more increased than IPv4. Therefore, the strict guarantee of QoS based on End-to-End and differentiated quality control schemes are simultaneously required. This paper proposes the flow control schemes on IPv6 network that the traffic is identified by flow and the QoS of multi-service is improved by QoS information in IPv6 hop-by-hop option header. The object of flow control includes not only non-default QoS traffic, which uses the flow label, but also best-effort or encrypted traffic. Therefore, the guarantee of real-time service is strengthened and the flow, which abuses unnecessarily the network resources, is effectively controlled. Also, this paper proposes the mapping scheme between the flow and MPLS by reflecting the minimum change of the existed network resource and the status of backbone network of ISP(Internet Service Provider). In the simulation result, It is shown that the proposed scheme is effective in the side of QoS on real-time services and utilization of backbone resources.

As the multimedia application traffic takes more portion in the internet traffic, it is necessary to control the network congestion through the congestion control protocol. In addition, the QoS-enabled networks such as DiffServ become an indispensable technology when running the multimedia applications. However, the previously proposed end-to-end congestion control algorithms take the round trip time to react the network congestion. Thus, as the RTT becomes larger, the reaction against the congestion gets delayed further, while the network congestion gets worse. In addition the performance of end-to-end congestion control algorithm is degraded if the QoS-enabled network runs the congestion control mechanism in the network level without any coordination between them. In this paper, we propose the early rate adaptation protocol for the DiffServ network which effectively linke the congestion control algorithm at the host and the congestion mechanism in the network together. By taking advantage of early congestion notification from the network it is possible to react the network congestion more quickly and effectively.

QoS in wireless multimedia sensor networks is an important issue to enhance streaming media service. This paper proposes a new 2-layer based QoS evaluation scheme for enhancing the streaming media QoS of wireless multimedia sensor networks. The proposed scheme performs the fuzzy relevance to control the streaming between application layer and network layer, and it performs 2-layer mapping process to enhance the transmission reliability and throughput. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves improved performance in packet control ratio, transmission reliability, and delay overhead ratio compared with those of other existing schemes.

This paper proposed a new approach to adaptive call admission control based on a neural network for multiple service classes with different quality of service (QoS) in the ATM-based Broadband Integrated Services Digital Networks. the proposed method extend Hiramatsu's neural network based "leaky pattern table" method for the single QoS[1, 2, 3] to deal with multiple services with different QoS by constructing multiple pattern tables based on each service's acceptance or rejection at the call set-up requests, and by simultaneously controlling each service's QoS according to the target QoS of the service and the trunk capacity. Computer simulation results on two service classes with different traffic characteristics and different cell loss rates as QoS, highlight good performance and effectiveness of the proposed call admission controller for multiple service classes.e classes.

This study proposes an Architecture for user level End-to-end Quality of Service(QoS) using overlay In Next Generation Network(NGN). Inexisting NGNs, the IMS of a control plane provides user QoS through direct traffic control and resource-reservation over the IP packet transport network of a user plane. Further, a set of torrent studies are ongoing not only to maximize the QoS for users, but also to minimize the quality deterioration for supporting the user End-to-end QoS. Along with that, an extended QoS in user level must be considered, for Instance, differentiating service quality to support users' expectation, providing optimized contents by users' equipments, and so forth. Accordingly, the Overlay Service Network Architecture proposed by this study provides protocol adaptation for maximum throughput on transport layer by using the most efficient transport layer protocol to various network circumstances. Also, the Overlay Service Network Architecture on application layer distributes processing delay from the data transformation process of the user equipment to the network, and it is capable of intermediate processing depending on user service level. application service feature, and equipment circumstance as well. Thus, this study mainly proposes the Overlay Service Network Architecture for user level end-to-end QoS in NGN with the quality control features both on the transport layer and the application layer, an internal component feature, and a service scenario providing the QoS linking with 3GPP.

In this paper we propose an agent architecture to improve the flexibility of videoconference systems with strategic-INTER knowledge. The proposed architecture achieves more flexibility by selecting dynamically the strategy of QoS (Quality of Service). To select the strategies, the systems have to take into the consideration of the properties of problems occurred on QoS and the status of problem solving process. This architecture is introduced as a part of knowledge base of agent dealing with cooperation between software modules of videoconference systems. We have implemented the architecture and our prototype system shows its capability of flexible problem solving against the QoS degradation, along with other possible problems within the time limitation. We confirmed that the proposed architecture can improve its flexibility of a videoconference system compared to conventional systems.

Communication performance requirements are described as QoS parameters in multimedia communication Protocols including SCTP. One of the important QoS parameters is the reliability of the transfer. As a QoS parameter, the reliability defines error detection, report and correction mechanisms. Including SCTP, conventional error control mechanisms, however, do not consider the integrated viewpoint of multimedia data. In this paper, I have designed and proposed the multimedia oriented error control method based on multimedia characteristics. The proposed scheme should have the reduction effect of the communication resources such as frame buffer, procesing power and bandwidth as well as satisfy the requirements of users.
