Optimized data rate allocation for dynamic sensor fusion over resource constrained communication networks

Dynamic Resource Allocation in Communication Networks

Efficient dynamic resource provisioning algorithms are necessary to the development and automation of Quality of Service (QoS) networks. The main goal of these algorithms is to offer services that satisfy the QoS requirements of individual users while guaranteeing at the same time an efficient utilization of network resources. In this paper we introduce a new service model that provides quantit...

Fair Dynamic Spectrum Allocation Using Modified Game Theory for Resource-Constrained Cognitive Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper considers the deployment of a cognitive radio scheme in wireless sensor networks to achieve (1) fair spectrum allocation, (2) maximum spectrum utilization, and (3) priority-based sensor transmissions, while (4) avoiding unnecessary spectrum handover (or handoff). This problem is modelled as a bi-objective optimization problem. We apply modified game theory and a cooperative approach ...

Dynamic Enhanced Radio Resource Allocation for Wireless Communication Networks

Mobility of the wireless user creates uncertainty in demand and non-optimum use of radio resources. Current wireless networks are periodically re-configured manually to improve network performance. These network reconfiguration and performance optimizations consume thousands of engineering hours and are often done by trial and error. However, the benefit of these efforts will be minimized as in...

Algorithms for Resource Allocation in Data Transfer Over EGPRS Networks

Mobile telephone systems are undergoing a substantial change from voice based systems which also support data transfer to become systems which truly support packet switched data services to mobile subscribers. This evolution towards the third generation (3G) mobile system will be based on the Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) [1] and will begin with the General Packet Radio Service ...
