چکیده

Heterogeneous cellular networks may be defined by several parameters that determine their performance, being known as the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).. In order to guarantee a desired Quality of Service (QoS) a proper balance of these parameters is required. An approach to integrate a set of KPIs into a single one, is presented by using a Cost Function (CF). The CF takes these KPIs into account, providing a single evaluation parameter as output, and reflecting network conditions and Common Radio Resource Management (CRRM) strategies performance. The proposed CF model enables the implementation of different CRRM policies, by manipulating the KPIs, allowing for a better QoS.

Vacation model for Markov machine repair problem with two heterogeneous unreliable servers and threshold recovery

Markov model of multi-component machining system comprising two unreliable heterogeneous servers and mixed type of standby support has been studied. The repair job of broken down machines is done on the basis of bi-level threshold policy for the activation of the servers. The server returns back to render repair job when the pre-specified workload of failed machines is build up. The first (seco...
