Full textThe successful deployment of Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) is heavily dependent on Quality of Service (QoS) to be achieved. This thesis addresses a few facets of the QoS issues in UMTS, including traffic shaping and policing, conformance consistency, Call Admission Control (CAC) and resource allocation.
The main focus of this thesis is traffic conditioning related issues for QoS provisioning in UMTS. Assuming an end-to-end QoS scenario supported by IntServ or/and Diffserv architectures, the thesis initially presents an all nodes traffic conditioning-enabled framework in UMTS. Under this framework, the traffic generated at each User Equipment (UE) is regulated by a traffic shaper in the form of a token bucket, and the conformance of the traffic flow is policed at the policing node. The performance of imposing traffic shaping at the UE is studied and compared with the case without shaping. Next, having observed that the performance of the traffic conditioned system is sensitive to the values of the token bucket parameters, the thesis proposes a heuristic approach for searching local and global QoS-aware token bucket parameters. By tuning the system operating at the obtained ’optimal’ shaping parameters, the requirements for all concerned QoS attributes are guaranteed. Furthermore, the thesis studies conformance consistency in a traffic conditioned multi-hop network, by monitoring the conformance status of a traffic flow using an identical token bucket for both traffic shaping and policing. In the presence of variable packet size, the thesis gives a quantitative result, for a simple case, on how much percent of the originally conformant packets may misbehave at further policing node(s). The performance of the aggregated traffic flows and the measures to minimize the effect of conformance deterioration are also studied in the thesis.
Another facet of the QoS issues in UMTS, CAC together with resource allocation, is also studied in the thesis. A priority-oriented framework for QoS management of multimedia services in UMTS is proposed. Based on a traffic class priority definition, the framework is implemented through a priority-oriented CAC, channel congestion control and adaptive bandwidth allocation.

Para tal, a dissertação inclui secções de preparação, onde é efectuado uma revisão da evolução das comunicações móveis celulares, de alguns aspectos fundamentais das técnicas de espalhamento de espectro, das especificações do sistema UMTS-TDD relevantes para o trabalho e a nível mais avançado uma síntese das principais técnicas MUD (Multiuser Detection) propostas na literatura. Após a apresentação deste material preparatório necessário para compreender o trabalho realizado, são descritos, caracterizados, avaliados e comparados os vários algoritmos. Foram implementadas numa cadeia de simulação vários tipos de estruturas PIC, designadamente, com um e dois estágios, com cancelamento parcial e completo, com estimativas hard e soft, com uma antena e com um agregado circular uniforme de M elementos. De forma a avaliar o desempenho destas estruturas PIC foram obtidos resultados em vários cenários, nomeadamente, com estimativas perfeitas dos parâmetros do canal e controlo de potência perfeito; com estimativas imperfeitas dos parâmetros do canal e controlo de potência perfeito; com factores de espalhamento variáveis e estimativas perfeitas dos parâmetros do canal. Os parâmetros necessários para efectuar simulações ao nível do sistema foram, também, calculados. Como conclusão principal deste trabalho, ressalta que a estrutura HD_PIC (hard decision - PIC) com um estágio é a que apresenta a melhor relação desempenho/complexidade, verificando-se que a combinação desta estrutura com um agregado de antenas é uma técnica extremamente promissora para o UMTS_TDD.

Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to provide solutions to challenges facing the wireless localization and tracking techniques, with a special focus on Non Line of Sight (NLoS) effect arising from the presence of obstacles between the mobile station and the base station. In the case of mobile tracking algorithms, adaptive component and subspace analysis are important tools frequently used for different parametric estimation. We present in the first part of this thesis, an extensive study of this subject and we propose fast and efficient subspace tracking methods. The document is structured in three parts gathering several chapters: Subspace Tracking for Signal Processing. Mobile Localization in Wireless Networks. Appendix. Part I: Subspace Tracking for Signal Processing. In the first part, various theoretical aspects for adaptive subspace tracking in signal processing are presented. We start first by a global introduction. In chapter 1, an overview of subspace tracking methods is illustrated. In chapter 2, we propose fast adaptive algorithms for minor and principal component analysis. We start first by proposing new fast methods using Householder Transformation for extracting the desired minor eigenvectors of a covariance matrix. The two proposed methods are referred to as; MCA Orthogonal OJA using Householder Transform (MCA-OOJAH) and MCA Orthogonal FRANS using Householder Transform (MCA-OFRANSH). We propose next a fast PCA algorithm using Givens Rotations for tracking the desired principal eigenvectors of a covariance matrix, we refer to this new algorithm as Principal Component extraction using the Orthogonal PAST method (PC-OPAST). Finally, we study the MCA case where we elaborate a fast MCA algorithm for positive Hermitian covariance matrix associated with time series. This latter method is referred to as Minor Component extraction using the YAST-PGS algorithm (MC-YAST-PGS). Theoretical Convergence analysis and numerical stability analysis are provided in this chapter. Simulation results are presented to assess the performance of our algorithms and compare them with other existing methods. Chapter 3 relates to subspace analysis. To this end, we propose fast adaptive algorithms for minor and principal subspace analysis. The first new method referred to as Fast Orthogonal OJA (FOOJA) estimates the minor or the principal desired subspace of a covariance matrix. Another fast MSA method (YAST-PGS) is proposed in this chapter to extract the desired minor subspace of a positive Hermitian covariance matrix associated with time series. Theoretical stability analysis and simulation results are provided to illustrate the tracking capacity of the proposed algorithms. In chapter 4, we present an application of the subspace tracking for mobile localization. Indeed, we propose an adaptive mobile localization method using Time Of Arrival (TOA) and Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimates. Simulation results prove the good estimation and tracking performance of the proposed method in typical propagation environments. Part II: Mobile Localization in Wireless Networks. This part deals with mobile localization in wireless networks and more precisely in the UMTS-FDD mode. Before presenting our contributions, we show in chapter 5, a brief summary on the evolution of cellular systems, and an overview of UMTS positioning methods. In chapter 6, we present an efficient TOA estimation method using RAKE-CFAR technique that reduces the effect of the hearability problem on mobile positioning in UMTS-FDD mode. Realistic simulation results show the accuracy improvement provided by the proposed method over a simple Rake receiver. In chapter 7, a new Mobile Station (MS) localization method is provided using Round Trip Time (RTT) measurements in the UMTS-FDD mode. The new methods take into account possible large RTT error measurements caused by Non Line of Sight (NLoS). The mobile position is then obtained only from the three most reliable RTT among the set of all RTT estimates when available. This method is also efficient even if all RTT measurements correspond to the LoS case. More precisely, this algorithm allows the selection of the least ’noisy’ RTT when all measurements are of LoS type. Simulation results show the gain of positioning accuracy provided by the proposed algorithm. In chapter 8, we propose an adaptive Interactive Multiple Models (IMM) Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) with an efficient RAKE-CFAR method for mobile tracking in NLoS situation. This new algorithm is based first on an efficient and adaptive TOA estimation method, and an IMM-UKF method in order to operate in Non-Line-of-Sight situations and to track manoeuvring mobile. Realistic simulation results are presented in the UMTS-FDD mode to show the tracking accuracy provided by our proposed algorithm. Part III: Appendix. The appendix provides in chapters 9 and 10 complete proofs of some results of Part I and II and contains some details about the UMTS simulator

Full textThis thesis deals with the integration of multimedia traffic on the uplink of the UMTS radio interface. The problem is tackled in its globality, considering jointly the resource sharing possibilities, a good characterization of the traffic to transmit and the possibilities opened in the UMTS standard. The attention is more particularly focused on MPEG4 video and data of the Internet type. The first part of the thesis provides an approach of radio resource sharing in WCDMA mode. The performances of the physical layer multiplexing mechanism with quality of transmission differentiation and the impact of the rate matching mechanism are evaluated. This analysis serves as a basis for the construction of a cost function for estimating the multiservice cellular capacity and the proposition of a quality of transmission adaptive balancing method. The second part of the thesis presents a new statistical model for MPEG4 video traffic. This model consists in a customization of the DBMAP process and allows evaluating the queueing performances analytically. The last part of the thesis integrates this set of works yielding a cooperative scheduling strategy that efficiently multiplexes the packets generated by real time and non real time multimedia applications while respecting the integrity and delay constraints. An analytical method based on M/G/1 type queueing systems theory is given for computing the delays incurred by MPEG4 video and data packets when this strategy is implemented in a UMTS network

Full textA method and apparatus are provided for ad hoc networking over a universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) . In the method, if user equipment (40A) (such as a mobile phone) is not within normal cell coverage (20) , then in an uplink procedure a message which would normally have not be able to be transmitted directly from the User Equipment (40A) to a Base Station (10) is instead forwarded towards the Base Station (10) via one or more intermediate User Equipments (40B) . In the method, the user equipment (40A) is arranged to synchronise itself with the Base Station (10) to acquire timeslot and frame synchronisations and thence perform probing activities to build up a list of neighbouring User Equipments. From this list and power and signal to interference calculations the user equipment (40A) is able to work out the relative positions of its neighbours with respect to the Base Station and itself and come to a routing decision for forwarding its message towards the Base Station.

Full textThis paper is focused on the design of an adaptive Connection Admission Control (CAC) algorithm for a Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) based satellite system with variable link capacity. The main feature of the proposed algorithm is to maximize the resource utilization by adapting to the link conditions and the antenna gain of the users. The link quality of the user may vary depending on the weather condition, user mobility and any other propagation factors. The algorithm is compared against a non-adaptive admission control algorithm under different test cases. The proposed CAC algorithm is simulated using MATLAB and the performance results are obtained for a mix of multimedia traffic classes such as video streaming, web browsing, netted voice and email. The simulation results indicate a higher system performance in terms of the blocking ratio and the number of admitted connections.

Full textIn the recent years, the usage of third generation (3G) - Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) cellular networks has begun to rise in most European countries, as in Greece. 3G networks replace the second generation mobile networks and moreover, are in position of offering advanced services to mobile users. However, the need for higher (broadband) speeds led to the further development of 3G networks and to the adoption of new technologies, with main representative the High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) technology. HSPA constitutes the evolution of UMTS and is known as 3.5G or 3G+ in order to indicate the upgrade from UMTS. However, despite the fact that HSPA technology is expected to allow the provision of numerous broadband services, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), that constitutes the authorized organization for the standardization of new mobile technologies, already examines new technologies that will prevail in the mobile communications industry over the next decades. This novel project is known as Long Term Evolution (LTE) and aims at achieving increased data rates and reduced latency compared to UMTS and HSPA networks. Simultaneously, multimedia content and service providers show an increased interest in supporting multicast data in order to effectively manage and re-use the available network resources. Additionally, more and more users require access to applications and services that until today could only be accessed by conventional wired networks. Thus, real time applications and services may face low penetration today, however, they are expected to gain high interest in future mobile networks. These applications actually reflect a modern, future way of communication among mobile users. For instance, mobile TV is expected to be a ‘killer’ application for 3G’s. One of the most significant steps towards the provision of such demanding services is the introduction of Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS). MBMS is a point-to-multipoint service in which data is transmitted from a single source entity to multiple destinations, allowing the networks resources to be shared. Actually, MBMS extends the existing UMTS infrastructure and efficiently uses network and radio resources, both in the core network and most importantly, in the air interface of UMTS, where the bottleneck is placed to a large group of users. Therefore, MBMS constitutes an efficient way to support the plethora of the emerging wireless multimedia and application services such as IP Video Conferencing and Video Streaming. In this thesis, we analytically present the multicast mode of MBMS and analyze its performance in terms of packet delivery cost under various network topologies and multicast users’ distributions. The analysis of total packet delivery cost takes into account the paging cost, the processing cost and the transmission cost at nodes and links of the topology. Furthermore, for the evaluation of the scheme, we consider different transport channels for the transmission of the multicast data over the Iub and Uu interfaces of the UMTS architecture. The analysis reveals that depending on the current network conditions (user population, user distribution, etc.), all the available transport channels could be used for the efficient delivery of multicast data to mobile users.

Full textAs communications technology is being developed, users’ demand for multimedia services raises. Meanwhile, the Internet has enjoyed tremendous growth in recent years. Consequently, there is a great interest in using the IP-based networks to provide multimedia services. One of the most important areas in which the issues are being debated, is the development of standards for the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). UMTS constitutes the third generation (3G) of cellular wireless networks which aims to provide high-speed data access along with real time voice calls. Wireless data is one of the major boosters of wireless communications and one of the main motivations of the next generation standards. The recent years, the usage of third generation cellular networks has begun to rise all over the world. These new infrastructures substitute the existed second generation cellular networks and offer broadband services to mobile users. Through the 3G mobile networks, the mobile users have the opportunity to run applications and realize services that offered until today only by wired networks. Such broadband services are mobile Internet, mobile TV, mobile gaming, mobile streaming, video calls etc. The main target of this dissertation is the study and the analysis of the mechanisms that are operated behind the above mentioned services and applications. More specifically, we analyze already existed mechanisms used for the transmission of real time services over 3G networks and furthermore we propose new mechanisms for the effective data transmission in 3G networks in terms of network performance and satisfaction of the mobile user. Generally, we consider two categories of mechanisms for the data transmission: • Mechanisms for point to point data transmission. • Mechanisms for point to multipoint data transmission. Regarding the first category of the mechanisms, in this dissertation, we analyze and propose mechanisms for real time data transmission in 3G networks. We focus firstly on schemes that reliable transmit the real time data to mobile users and secondly on mechanisms for adaptive multimedia transmission in UMTS. Bandwidth is a valuable and limited resource for UMTS and every wireless network, in general. Therefore, it is of extreme importance to exploit this resource in the most efficient way. It is essential for a wireless network to have an efficient bandwidth allocation scheme in order the mobile user to experience both real time applications and Internet applications such as HTTP or SMTP. Consequently, when a user experiences a real time application, there should be enough bandwidth available at any time for any other application that the mobile user might realize. In addition, when two different applications run together, the network should guarantee that there is no possibility for any of the above-mentioned applications to prevail against the other by taking all the available channel bandwidth. Taking into consideration the fact that Internet applications adopt mainly TCP as the transport protocol, while real time applications mainly use RTP, the network should guarantee that RTP does not prevail against the TCP traffic. Consequently, this means that there should be enough bandwidth available in the wireless channel for the Internet applications to run properly. To this direction, rate control of real time applications is an important issue in mobile networks. With the aid of rate control schemes the network could adapt the packet transmission rate of real time applications according to the current network conditions giving the opportunity to the mobile users to experience both real time and non real time applications at the same time in their mobile devices. Regarding the second category of the mechanisms, although UMTS networks offer high capacity, the expected demand will certainly overcome the available resources. Thus, the multicast transmission over the UMTS networks constitutes a challenge and an area of research. To this direction the third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is currently standardizing the Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS) framework of UMTS. In this dissertation, we present a new mechanism for the efficient multicast data routing in UMTS. The proposed mechanism is enhanced with multicast group management functionality as well as with functionality related to the user mobility (handover and relocation). Furthermore, it is known that multicasting is more efficient method of supporting group communication than unicasting or broadcasting, as it allows transmission and routing of packets to multiple destinations using fewer network resources. In this dissertation, the three above mentioned methods of supporting group communication in UMTS are analyzed in terms of their performance. The critical parameters of primary interest for the evaluation of any method are the packet delivery cost and the scalability of the method. Finally, this dissertation analyses the role of power control in the multicast transmission in UMTS. It is proposed a power control scheme for the efficient radio bearer selection in MBMS. The choice of the most efficient transport channel in terms of power consumption is a key point for the MBMS since a wrong transport channel selection for the transmission of the MBMS data could result to a significant decrease in the total capacity of the system. Various UMTS transport channels are examined for the transmission of the multicast data and a new algorithm is proposed for the more efficient usage of power resources in the base station.

The {it Universal Mobile Telecommunications System} (UMTS) adopts WCDMA as the air interface to provide variable data rate services. In WCDMA, Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes are assigned to different users to preserve the orthogonality among users'' physical channels. The data rate supported by an OVSF code depends on its Spreading Factor ($SF$). An OVSF code with smaller $SF$ can support higher data rate services than that with larger $SF$s. Four classes of traffics are identified in UMTS, which are conversational, streaming, interactive, and background traffics. The traffic for the conversational and streaming classes has the fairly constant characteristics. The dedicated physical channels (DPCHs) are preferred channels to serve these two classes of traffics. The interactive traffic is highly dependent on request-response patterns of end users, which has the bursty characteristics, and the applications with the background traffic does not request stringent response-time. To efficiently utilize the radio bandwidth, the shared channel technology is proposed to deliver interactive and background traffics. In this dissertation, we study the radio resource allocation for UMTS, where the dedicated and shared channel approaches are considered. For the dedicated code channel assignment, we propose two OVSF code assignment schemes, CADPB1 (Code Assignment with Dynamic Partition and Buffering 1) and CADPB2. Both schemes are simple and only incur low system overhead. The analytic model and simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the two schemes. For the shared channel approach, we propose a Shared-Channel Assignment and Scheduling (SCAS) algorithm to allocate shared code channels to interactive and background connections, which incurs low complexity and is considered practical. We formally prove the correctness of the SCAS and also conduct simulation experiments to investigate the performance of the SCAS algorithm.

3GPP 43.318 specifies the it Generic Access Network (GAN) for interworking between Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) core network. The dual-mode Mobile Station (MS) is equipped with two communication modules to support both WLAN and UMTS radio technologies, which shortens the battery lifetime of an MS. This study proposes an analytical model and conducts simulation experiments to study the power consumption of a dual-mode MS in terms of power consumption indicator and mean packet waiting time. Our study provide guidelines for designing the WLAN-UMTS dual mode MS.

Therefore, MBMS constitutes an efficient way to support the plethora of the emerging wireless multimedia applications and services such as IP video conferencing and video streaming. The main requirement during the provision of MBMS multicast services is to make an efficient overall usage of radio and network resources. This necessity mainly translates into improved power control strategies, since the base stations’ transmission power is the limiting factor of downlink capacity in UMTS networks. Under this prism, power control is one of the most critical aspects in MBMS due to the fact that downlink transmission power in UMTS networks is a limited resource and must be shared efficiently among all MBMS users in a cell. Moreover, power control aims at minimizing the transmitted power, eliminating in this way the intercell interference. However, when misused, the use of power control may lead to a high level of wasted power and worse performance results. In order to have efficient power control in MBMS, one of the most critical aspects is the selection of the transport channel for the transmission of MBMS multicast traffic. MBMS services can be provided in each cell by either multiple point-to-point (PTP) channels or by a single point-to-multipoint (PTM) channel. A wrong channel selection may result to a significant capacity decrease, thus, preventing the mass delivery of multimedia applications. It is worth mentioning that channel selection is still an open issue in today’s MBMS infrastructure mainly due to its catalytic role in MBMS performance. In the frame of MBMS power control and transport channel selection several approaches have been proposed, with main representative the 3GPP MBMS Counting Mechanism. However, none of these approaches performs optimal transport channel selection either due to the fact that some of them do not consider the power consumption as the selection criterion or because of the fact that they do not consider all the available transport channels (or combination of them) for the transmission of the MBMS data. All the above stress the need for an advanced version of these mechanisms that could deliver multimedia content to a large number of mobile users in a more efficient and economic way. After taking into account the above analysis, objective of this dissertation is the study of power control issues in next generation mobile communication networks and the development of new approaches/ mechanisms for its optimization. To this direction, this dissertation analyzes and evaluates all the available UMTS and HSPA transport channels that could be used for the transmission of MBMS multicast services. Moreover, this dissertation investigates and evaluates several power saving techniques that aim at the efficient usage of radio and network resources. Techniques, such as Dynamic Power Setting, Macro Diversity Combining and Rate Splitting are capable of decreasing the power consumption during the provision of MBMS services and may enable the mass market delivery of multimedia services to mobile users. The evaluation of the available transport channels and power saving techniques will lead to the development of a novel scheme/mechanism that will enable the efficient selection of transport channels for the transmission of MBMS services. The proposed mechanism, which we call MBMS Channel Assignment Mechanism (or «MCAM»), is expected to optimally utilize the available power resources of base stations to MBMS sessions running in the network, resulting in that way to an extensive increase on the system’s capacity. Therefore, MCAM may allow the mass provision of multimedia data to a large number of mobile users, which makes MCAM a strong candidate for next generation networks.
