Cloud-based Queuing Model for Tactile Internet in Next Generation of RAN

Ultra-low latency is the most important requirement of the Tactile Internet (TI), which is one of the proposed services for the next-generation wireless network (NGWN), e.g., fifth generation (5G) network. In this paper, a new queuing model for the TI is proposed for the cloud radio access network (CRAN) architecture of the NGWN by applying power domain non-orthogonal multiple access (PD-NOMA) technology. In this model, we consider both the radio remote head (RRH) and baseband processing unit (BBU) queuing delays for each end-to-end (E2E) connection between a pair of tactile users. In our setup, to minimize the transmit power of users subject to guaranteeing an acceptable delay of users, and fronthaul and access constraints, we formulate a resource allocation (RA) problem. Furthermore, we dynamically set the fronthaul and access links to minimize the total transmit power. Given that the proposed RA problem is highly non-convex, in order to solve it, we utilize diverse transformation techniques such as successive convex approximation (SCA) and difference of two convex functions (DC). Numerical results show that by dynamic adjustment of the access and fronthaul delays, transmit power reduces in comparison with the fixed approach per each connection. Also, energy efficiency of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and PD-NOMA are compared for our setup.

Resource Management and Admission Control for Tactile Internet in Next Generation of RAN

In this paper, a new queuing model for the Tactile Internet (TI) is proposed for the cloud radio access network (C-RAN) architecture of the next generation wireless networks, e.g., 5G, assisted via orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) technology. This model includes both the radio remote head (RRH) and baseband processing unit (BBU) queuing delays and reliability for each end to end (E2E) connection between each pair of tactile users. For this setup, with the aim to minimize the transmit power of users subject to guaranteeing tolerable delay of users, and fronthaul and access limitations, we formulate a resource allocation problem. Since the proposed optimization problem is highly non-convex, to solve it in an efficient manner, we utilize diverse transformation techniques such as successive convex approximation (SCA) and difference of two convex functions (DC). In addition, we propose an admission control (AC) algorithm to make problem feasible. In our proposed system model, we dynamically adjust the fronthaul and access links to minimize the transmit power. Simulation results reveal that by dynamic adjustment of the access and fronthaul delays, transmit power can be saved compared to the case of fixed approach per each transmission session. Moreover, the number of rejected users in the network is significantly reduced and more users are accepted.

Robust Resource Allocation for PD-NOMA-Based MISO Heterogeneous Networks with CoMP Technology

In this paper, we consider a hybrid scheme of coordinated multi-point (CoMP) technology in MISO heterogeneous communication networks based on power domain non-orthogonal multiple access (PD-NOMA). We propose a novel method based on matching game with externalities to realize the hybrid scheme where the number of the cooperative nodes are variable. Moreover, we propose a new matching utility function to manage the interference caused by CoMP and NOMA techniques. We also devise robust beamforming to cope with the channel uncertainty. In this regard, we focus on both no CSI and partial CSI cases to increase the achievable data rate. We provide the complexity analysis of both schemes which shows that the complexity of the partial CSI approach is more than that of the no CSI method. Results evaluate the performance of proposed CoMP scheme and the sensibility of our methods, Index Terms, CoMP technology, hybrid scheme, matching game with externalities, PD-NOMA, robust beamforming, probabilistic constraint, no CSI, partial CSI.

Drug Release Management for Dynamic TDMA-Based Molecular Communication

In this paper, we design a drug release mechanism for dynamic time division multiple access (TDMA)-based molecular communication via diffusion (MCvD). In the proposed scheme, the communication frame is divided into several time slots over each of which a transmitter nanomachine is scheduled to convey its information by releasing the molecules into the medium. To optimize the number of released molecules and the time duration of each time slot (symbol duration), we formulate a multi-objective optimization problem whose objective functions are the bit error rate (BER) of each transmitter nanomachine. Based on the number of released molecules and symbol durations, we consider four cases, namely: "static-time static-number of molecules" (STSN), "static-time dynamic-number of molecules" (STDN), "dynamic-time static-number of molecules" (DTSN), and "dynamic-time dynamic-number of molecules" (DTDN). We consider three types of medium in which the molecules are propagated, namely: "mild diffusive environment" (MDE), "moderate diffusive environment" (MODE), and "severe diffusive environment" (SDE). For the channel model, we consider a 3-dimensional (3D) diffusive environment, such as blood, with drift in three directions. Simulation results show that the STSN approach is the least complex one with BER around $\text{10}^{\text{-2}}$, but, the DTDN is the most complex scenario with the BER around $\text{10}^{\text{-8}}$.

Multiple-type Transmission Multiple-type Reception Framework on Molecular Communication

In this paper, we propose a new Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Molecular Communication (MC) system where multiple types of molecules are utilized for transmission and reception of information. We call the proposed framework as Multiple-type Transmission and Multiple-type Reception (MTMR). We also obtain the bit error rate (BER) of the system and an optimization problem is formulated to minimize BER by optimizing the drug dosage for designing drug release mechanism. As numerical analysis shows, the BER of MIMO-MTMR in MC is minimized to $\text{3.7}\times\text{10}^{\text{-3}}$ by considering the budget of molecules as 10000. Furthermore, MIMO-MTMR outperforms Single-type Transmission Single-type Reception MIMO from the BER performance point of view approximately 54% for time slot 10s.

End-to-End Performance Optimization in Hybrid Molecular and Electromagnetic Communications

Telemedicine refers to the use of information and communication technology to assist with medical information and services. In health care applications, high reliable communication links between the health care provider and the desired destination in the human body play a central role in designing end-to-end (E2E) telemedicine system. In the advanced health care applications, $\text{e.g.}$ drug delivery, molecular communication becomes a major building block in bio-nano-medical applications. In this paper, an E2E communication link consisting of the electromagnetic and the molecular link is investigated. This paradigm is crucial when the body is a part of the communication system. Based on the quality of service (QoS) metrics, we present a closed-form expression for the E2E BER of the combination of molecular and wireless electromagnetic communications. \textcolor{black}{ Next, we formulate an optimization problem with the aim of minimizing the E2E BER of the system to achieve the optimal symbol duration for EC and DMC regarding the imposing delivery time from telemedicine services.} The proposed problem is solved by an iterative algorithm based on the bisection method. Also, we study the impact of the system parameters, including drift velocity, detection threshold at the receiver in molecular communication, on the performance of the system. Numerical results show that the proposed method obtains the minimum E2E bit error probability by selecting an appropriate symbol duration of electromagnetic and molecular communications.

Non-Uniform BCSK Modulation in Nutrient-Limited Relay-Assisted Molecular Communication System: Optimization and Performance Evaluation

In this paper, a novel non-uniform Binary Concentration Shift Keying (BCSK) modulation in the course of molecular communication is introduced. We consider the nutrient limiting as the main reason for avoiding the nanotransmitters to release huge number of molecules at once. The solution of this problem is in the utilization of the BCSK modulation. In this scheme, nanotransmitter releases the information molecules non-uniformly during the time slot. The 3-dimensional diffusion channel with 3-dimensional drift is considered in this paper. To boost the bit error rate (BER) performance, we consider a relay-assisted molecular communication via diffusion. Our computations demonstrate how the pulse shape of BCSK modulation affects the BER, and we also derive the energy consumption of non-uniform BCSK in the closed-form expression. We study the parameters that can affect the BER performance, in particular the distance between the nanotransmitter and the nanoreceiver, the drift velocity of the medium, and the symbol duration. Furthermore, we propose an optimization problem that is designed to find the optimal symbol duration value that maximizes the number of successful received bits. The proposed algorithm to solve the optimization problem is based on the bisection method. The analytical results show that non-uniform BCSK modulation outperforms uniform BCSK modulation in BER performance, when the aggregate energy is fixed.

Joint Dynamic Pricing and Radio Resource Allocation Framework for IoT Services

In this paper, we study the problem of resource allocation as well as pricing in the context of Internet of things (IoT) networks. We provide a novel pricing model for IoT services where all the parties involved in the communication scenario as well as their revenue and cost are determined. We formulate the resource allocation in the considered model as a multi-objective optimization problem where in addition to the resource allocation variables, the price values are also optimization variables. To solve the proposed multi-objective optimization problem, we use the scalarization method which gives different Pareto optimal solutions. We solve the resulting problems using the alternating approach based on the successive convex approximation (SCA) method which converges to a local solution with few iterations. We also consider a conventional approach where each entity tries to maximize its own revenue independently. Simulation results indicate that by applying the proposed joint framework, we can increase the total revenue compared to the conventional case while providing an almost complete fairness among the players. This is while the conventional approach fails to provide such a fairness.
