Wireless link adaptation policies: QoS for deadline constrained traffic with imperfect channel estimates
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an optimal power and rate control policy for delay constrained traffic in next generation TDMA wireless systems. Our solution minimizes average transmit power while satisfying a constraint on the distribution of packets lost to deadline expiration. We also provide a means to account for erroneous and delayed channel estimates. Our results show the optimal power and rate adaption may change dramatically as mobile speed and channel estimate delay increase. Finally, we present results from a simulation of a GSM EDGE mobile. This simulation incorporates industry standard wireless channels and performance data available from the Third Generation Partnership Project. When compared to the standard Fixed-SIR power control policy, our algorithm provides a significant reduction in power consumption and mitigates some of the negative effects of delayed channel estimates.

Service disciplines performance for GPRS with link adaptation and heterogeneous traffic
The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) system provides packet switched data service with quality of service (QoS) over a GSM infrastructure. In order to cope with the QoS requirements, packet scheduling strategies are used. On the other hand, GPRS introduces four coding schemes with different degrees of data protection according to the radio channel conditions. Then, the selection of appropria...
متن کاملQoS provisioning for real-time traffic in wireless packet networks
A b s u a b QoS provisioning to users in the presence of volatility of the wireless channel is the most challenging issue in wireless system design. In this paper, we consider the problem ofscheduling constant bit rate (CBR) traffic packets over the wireless channel, subject to packet delivery deadline eonstraints. We cast the problem as a Markov decision process and derive the optimal scheduli...
متن کاملCross-layer quality-driven adaptation for scheduling heterogeneous multimedia over 3G satellite networks
Wireless networks are experiencing a paradigm shift from focusing on the traditional data transfer to accommodating the rapidly increasing multimedia traffic. Hence, their scheduling algorithms have to concern not only network-oriented quality-of-service (QoS) profiles, but also application-oriented QoS targets. This is particularly challenging for satellite multimedia networks that lack fast c...

Deficit Round Robin (DRR) is a fair packet-based scheduling discipline commonly used in wired networks where link capacities do not change with time. However, in wireless networks, especially wireless broadband networks, i.e., IEEE 802.16e Mobile WiMAX, there are two main considerations violate the packet-based service concept for DRR. First, the resources are allocated per Mobile WiMAX frame. ...
