چکیده

The analysis of radio resource management (RRM) strategies in a UMTS network and the impact that these strategies have on the end-to-end behaviour of multimedia applications with Quality of Service (QoS) requirements is one of the topical communication fields. Within the IST ARROWS (Advanced Radio Resource Management On Wireless Services) project a real-time UMTS demonstrator is being developed to perform this analysis. The demonstrator platform is built over a network of personal computers and copes with the real-time restrictions imposed by the emulation of UMTS transport capabilities. This paper describes the global architecture of the ARROWS test-bed and provides some implementation-specific issues like real-time operation handling.

An episode of cerebrospinal fluid leak syndrome involving a marathon runner.

1 of 2 DESCRIPTION A 57-year-old marathon runner presented with orthostatic dizziness and headache, which appeared just after running a few kilometres and had persisted for 7 days. No other neurological abnormalities were found. On lumbar puncture, the initial pressure was zero. A cranial MRI with gadolinium showed a marked enhancement of the dura mater ( fi gure 1 , arrows). MR cisternography ...

IP-based transport of voice traffic in the UMTS radio access network: analytical study and empirical validation Transport basé sur IP du trafic voix dans le réseau d’accès radio UMTS: étude analytique et validation empirique

In this paper, we investigate the IP protocol as a transport option for the user traffic in the UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN), where stringent delay bounds are to be met for both real-time and non real-time traffic. We focus on real-time voice traffic and present an analytical model for the multiplexing and transport of voice channels in the UTRAN using IP. The novelty of our mo...

A Simulation Tool for Dimensioning and Performance Evaluation of the UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network

The efficient support of multiple traffic classes with different quality of service requirements (end-to-end delay, jitter, loss) poses an extraordinary complexity in the design of third-generation mobile networks. This task becomes especially critical for the access network, where radio and transmission resources are usually scarce. In this paper we present a simulation model of the ATM-based ...
