WiMAX is intended for fourth generation wireless mobile communications where a group of users are provided with a connection and a fixed length queue. In present literature traffic of such network is analyzed based on the generator matrix of the Markov Arrival Process (MAP). In this paper a simple analytical technique of the two dimensional Markov chain is used to obtain the trajectory of the congestion of the network as a function of a traffic parameter. Finally, a two state phase dependent arrival process is considered to evaluate probability states. The entire analysis is kept independent of modulation and coding schemes.

In this research, we study the problem of opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) in a time-varying environment with fading channels, where the channel state is characterized by both channel quality and the occupancy of primary users (PUs). First, a finite-state Markov channel model is introduced to represent a fading channel. Second, by probing channel quality and exploring the activities of PUs jointly, a two-dimensional partially observable Markov decision process framework is proposed for OSA. In addition, a greedy strategy is designed, where a secondary user selects a channel that has the best-expected data transmission rate to maximize the instantaneous reward in the current slot. Compared with the optimal strategy that considers future reward, the greedy strategy brings low complexity and relatively ideal performance. Meanwhile, the spectrum sensing error that causes the collision between a PU and a secondary user (SU) is also discussed. Furthermore, we analyze the multiuser situation in which the proposed single-user strategy is adopted by every SU compared with the previous one. By observing the simulation results, the proposed strategy attains a larger throughput than the previous works under various parameter configurations.

In this study, we drive the one dimensional marginal transform function, probability density function and probability distribution function for the random variables $T_{{\xi}N}$ (Time taken by the servers during the vacations), ${\xi}_N$(Number of vacations taken by the servers) and ${\eta}_N$(Number of customers or units arrive in the system) by controlling the variability of two random variables simultaneously.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the batch service queueing model M/M(a, b ; ${\mu}_k/1$) under general bulk service rule with mean service rate ${\mu}_k$ for a batch of k units, where $a{\leq}k{\leq}b$. This queueing model consists of the two-dimensional state space so that it is characterized by two-dimensional state Markov process. The steady-state solution and performane measure of this process are derived by using Matrix Geometric method. Meanwhile, a new approach is suggested to calculate the two-dimensional traffic density R which is used to obtain the steady-state solution. In addition, to determine the optimal service initiation threshold a, a decision model of this queueing system is developed evaluating cost of service per batch and cost of waiting per customer. In a job order production system, the decision-making procedure presented in this paper can be applicable to determining when production should be started.

본 논문에서는 통계적 패킷 음성/데이터 다중화기의 성능을 연구하였다. 성능해석은 음성과 데이터가 서로 분리된 한정된 queue를 사용하고, 전송에 있어서 음성이 데이터보다 우선권을 갖는 것을 가정하고, 다중화기의 출력 link를 시간 slot단위로 나누고 음성은 (M+1)-state의 Markov Process로, 데이터는 Poisson process로 modeling 하여 수행하였다. 전송시 음성신호가 데이터 신호보다 우선권을 가지므로 음성의 queueing behavior는 data에 거의 영향을 받지 않는다. 다라서 본 연구에서는 음성의 queueing behavior를 먼저 해석한 다음 data의 queueing behavior를 해석하였다. 패킷 음성 다중화기의 성능 해석은 입력상태와 buffer의 점유를 2차원의 Markov chain을 가지고 formulation하였고, 집적된 음성/data의 다중화기는 data를 추가한 3차원 Markov chain으로 하였다. 이러한 model을 사용하여 Gauss-Seidel방법으로 결과를 얻고 simulation으로 입증하였다. 이들 결과로 부터 음성 가입자의 수, 출력 link용량, 음성의 queue크기, 음성의 overflow확률에서는 서로 trade-off가 있고 data에서도 비슷한 tradeoff가 있음을 알았다. 또한 입력 traffic량과 link의 용량에 따라서 음성과 데이타간의 성능에서 서로 tradeoff가 있고, TASI의 이득이 2이상이고 음성가입자의 수가 적을 경우 데이타의 평균 지연시간은 buffer의 최대길이 보다 길음을 알아내었다.

Network coding improves TCP's performance in lossy wireless networks. However, the complex congestion window evolution of network coded TCP (TCP-NC) makes the analysis of end-to-end throughput challenging. This paper analyzes the evolutionary process of TCP-NC against lossy links. An analytic model is established by applying a two-dimensional Markov chain. With maximum window size, end-to-end erasure rate and redundancy parameter as input parameters, the analytic model can reflect window evolution and calculate end-to-end throughput of TCP-NC precisely. The key point of our model is that by the novel definition of the states of Markov chain, both the number of related states and the computation complexity are substantially reduced. Our work helps to understand the factors that affect TCP-NC's performance and lay the foundation of its optimization. Extensive simulations on NS2 show that the analytic model features fairly high accuracy.

It is well-known that the cooperative communication and error control technology can improve the network performance, but most existing cooperative MAC protocols have not focused on how to cope with the contention process caused by cooperation and how to reduce the bad influence of channel packet error rate on the system performance. Inspired by this, this paper first modifies and improves the basic rules of the IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol to optimize the contention among the multi-relay in a cooperative ARQ scheme. Secondly, a hybrid ARQ protocol with soft combining is adopted to make full use of the effective information in the error data packet and hence improve the ability of the receiver to decode the data packet correctly. The closed expressions of network performance including throughput and average packet transmission delay in a saturated network are then analyzed and derived by establishing a dedicated two-dimensional Markov model and solving its steady-state distribution. Finally, the performance evaluation and superiority of the proposed protocol are validated in different representative study cases through MATLAB simulations.

본 논문은 다양한 서비스 클래스가 제공되는 BcN (Broadband convergence Network) 환경에서 상위 우선순위 서비스의 품질을 보장하기 위한 능동 큐 관리 메커니즘 (Active-WRED)을 제안한다. 네트워크 혼잡 상황에서 제안된 메커니즘은 상대적으로 낮은 우선순위를 갖는 서비스의 drop 확률을 증가시키고 이에 따라 상위 우선순위 서비스의 drop 확률을 감소시킴으로써 상위 우선순위 서비스에 대해 패킷 손실로부터 품질을 보장할 수 있다. 제안된 능동 큐 관리 메커니즘의 성능을 분석하기 위해 이산 시간 큐잉 시스템의 통계적 분석 방법을 도입하였다. 두 서비스 클래스 (GS: Guaranteed Service, BS: Best Effort Service)만을 고려하여 제안 방안의 성능 분석을 위해 MMBP-2 (two-state Markov-Modulated Bernoulli arrival Process) 트래픽 소스 모델과 2차 이산시간 Markov 체인을 도입하였다.

We consider a multiserver system with two classes of customers with preemption, which is a widely used system in the analysis of cognitive radio networks. It is known that the optimal admission control for this system is of threshold type. We express the expected total discounted profit using the total number of customers, thus reducing the stochastic optimization problem with a two-dimensional state space to a problem with a one-dimensional birth-and-death structure. An efficient algorithm is proposed for the calculation of the expected total discounted profit.

In recent literature on traffic scheduling, the combination of the two-dimensional discrete-time Markov chain (DTMC) and the Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP) is used to analyze the capacity of VoIP traffic in the cognitive radio system. The performance of the cognitive radio system solely depends on the accuracy of spectrum sensing techniques, the minimization of false alarms, and the scheduling of traffic channels. In this paper, we only emphasize the scheduling of traffic channels (i.e., traffic handling techniques for the primary user [PU] and the secondary user [SU]). We consider the following three different traffic models: the cross-layer analytical model, M/G/1(m) traffic, and the IEEE 802.16e/m scheduling approach to evaluate the performance of the VoIP services of the cognitive radio system from the context of blocking probability and throughput.
