The paper presents a control architecture aimed at implementing bandwidth optimization combined with call admission control (CAC) over a digital video broadcasting (DVB) return channel satellite terminal (RCST) under quality of service (QoS) constraints. The approach can be applied in all cases where traffic flows, coming from a terrestrial portion of the network, are merged together within a single DVB flow, which is then forwarded over the satellite channel. The paper introduces the architecture of data and control plane of the RCST at layer 2. The data plane is composed of a set of traffic buffers served with a given bandwidth. The control plane proposed in this paper includes a layer 2 resource manager (L2RM), which is structured into decision makers (DM), one for each traffic buffer of the data plane. Each DM contains a virtual queue, which exactly duplicates the corresponding traffic buffer and performs the actions to compute the minimum bandwidth need to assure the QoS constraints. After computing the minimum bandwidth through a given algorithm (in this view the paper reports some schemes taken in the literature which may be applied), each DM communicates this bandwidth value to the L2RM, which allocates bandwidth to traffic buffers at the data plane. Real bandwidth allocations are driven by the information provided by the DMs. Bandwidth control is linked to a CAC scheme, which uses current bandwidth allocations and peak bandwidth of the call entering the network to decide admission. The performance evaluation is dedicated to show the efficiency of the proposed combined bandwidth allocation and CAC.

본 논문에서는 IP/MPLS 망에서 QoS 보장형 차별화 서비스 제공을 위한 Virtual Networking 구조를 제안한다. 제안한 구조에서는 멀티미디어 단말장치와 PE(Provider Edge) 사이에서 RSVP-TE를 이용한 signalling을 통해 연결설정을 요청하고 PE에서 CAC(Call Admission Control)가 이루어질 수 있도록 한다. 또한 provider network에서 일반 가입자에게 QoS 보장형 차별화 서비스를 제공해줄 수 있도록 Multiple Virtual Network을 구성하며, class-type별로 차별화된 virtual network을 구성하기 위해서 L-LSP를 PE간에 full-mesh 형태로 설정한다 본 논문에서 제안한 Virtual Networking을 통하며 망 사업자는 보다 효율적으로 망을 관리하며, 통신망 자원의 이용율을 극대화시키고 사용자들에게 QoS 보장형 차별화 서비스를 제공해주는 것이 가능하다.

멀티미디어를 응용한 서비스 제공이 확대되고 있는 셀룰러 이동통신망에서는 핸드오프호의 절단을(CDP)과 신규 호의 차단을(CBP)을 호레델 QoS 파라미터로 사용하고 있다. 망 서비스 사업자는 CBP보다 CDP에 관심을 두고 CDP를 개선하기 위한 방법으로 핸드오프호에 우선순위를 두어 채널을 할당하는 방법을 사용한다. 그러나 핸드오프호를 위한 채널의 크기에 따라 CDP는 감소시키지만CBP를 증가시키고 채널사용의 효율을 저하시킨다. 본 논문에서는 셀의 채널용량을 신규호 채널영역과 핸드오프호 채널영역으로 구분하고 각 영역을 토큰버킷으로 모델하여 큐잉이론을 적용함으로써 간략한 식으로 CDP 및 CBP를 구하고 이들로 구성된 서비스 등급을 정의하여 서비스 등급이 최소가 되는 핸드오프호 채널영역의 크기를 계산하여 측정기반 적응성 가변경계로 사용하는 기존 연구의 문제점인 트래픽 부하가 높을 경우 증가하는 CDP의 증가를 보완하는 호접속제어를 제안한다. 적응성 가변경계에서 CBP를 고려함으로써 발생된 CDP의 증가는 핸드오프호의 Overflow를 허용함으로써 보완하고 Overflow된 신규호 채널영역의 채널에 대해 신규호의 Preemption을 허용함으로써 CBP에 대한 Overflow의 영향을 제거하여 CDP의 증가를 억제하고 채널사용의 효율을 증가시킨다. 본 연구는 미디어별 QoS에 따라 채널을 할당하여 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하는 셀룰러 이동통신망에 미디어별 QoS를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Recently there is a growing Interest In mobile cellula r network providing multimedia service. However, the link bandwidth of mobile cellular network is not sufficient enough to provide satisfactory services to use rs. To overcome this problem, an adaptive framework has been proposed in this study, we propose a new method of estimating DPR(degradation period ratio) in an adaptive multimedia network where the bandwidth of ongoing call can be dynamically adjusted during its lifetime. DPR is a QoS(quality of service) parameter which represents the ratio of allocated bandwidth below a pre-defined target to the whole service time of a call. We improve estimation method of DPR using DTMC(discrete time Markov chain) model. We also calculate mean degradation period and degradation probability more precisely than in existing studies. Under Threshold CAC(call admission control) algorithm, we present analytically how to guarantee QoS to users and illustrate the method by numerical examples. The proposed method is expected to be used as one of CAC schemes in guaranteeing predefined QoS level of DPR

A dynamic tri-threshold call admission control scheme has been developed. This scheme supports voice, data, and multimedia services and it complies with the universal mobile telecommunications system. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated under varying handover rates. The QoS performance-including channel utilization, call dropping probability, and blocking probability-is investigated. The performance of the developed scheme is found to be encouraging.

CAC, UPC, NPC, cell level QoS and congestion control is required to assign efficiently channels's BW and to prevent networks from congestion. In the CAC algorithm, each user defines characteristics of input traffic when channels are set up and network based on this parameters determines the acception or rejection of the required BW. The CAC control mechanism is classified into the centralized BW allocation mechanism and the distributed BW Allocation mechanism according to the function and position of CAC processor allocating BW. In this paper, in contrast with esisted the distributed BW allocation mechanism which assumes the required BW of input traffic as constant, we assume input traffic & serices as bulk probability distribution in order to analyze performance more precisely.

The goal of this paper is to consider a co-design approach between time delay compensation and the message scheduling for CAN-Based Networked Control Systems (NCS). First we propose a hybrid priority scheme for the message scheduling in order to improve the Quality of Service (QoS). Second we present the way to calculate the closed-loop communication time delay and then compensate this time delay using the pole placement design method in order to improve the Quality of Control (QoC). The final objective is the implementation of a co-design which is the combination of the compensation for communication time delays and the message scheduling in order to have a more efficient NCS design.

Call admission control (CAC) plays an important role in mobile cellular network to guarantee the quality of service (QoS). In this paper, a dynamic hybrid CAC scheme with integrated cutoff priority and handoff queue for mobile cellular network is proposed and some performance metrics are derived. The unique characteristic of the proposed CAC scheme is that it can support any number of service types and that the cutoff thresholds for handoff calls are dynamically adjusted according to the number of service types and service priority index. Moreover, timeouts of handoff calls in queues are also considered in our scheme. By modeling the proposed CAC scheme with a one-dimensional Markov chain (1DMC), some performance metrics are derived, which include new call blocking probability ($P_{nb}$), forced termination probability (PF), average queue length, average waiting time in queue, offered traffic utilization, wireless channel utilization and system performance which is defined as the ratio of channel utilization to Grade of Service (GoS) cost function. In order to validate the correctness of the derived analytical performance metrics, simulation is performed. It is shown that simulation results match closely with the derived analytic results in terms of $P_{nb}$ and PF. And then, to show the advantage of 1DMC modeling for the performance analysis of our proposed CAC scheme, the computing complexity of multi-dimensional Markov chain (MDMC) modeling in performance analysis is analyzed in detail. It is indicated that state-space cardinality, which reflects the computing complexity of MDMC, increases exponentially with the number of service types and total channels in a cell. However, the state-space cardinality of our 1DMC model for performance analysis is unrelated to the number of service types and is determined by total number of channels and queue capacity of the highest priority service in a cell. At last, the performance comparison between our CAC scheme and Mahmoud ASH's scheme is carried out. The results show that our CAC scheme performs well to some extend.

An adaptive framework paradigm where the bandwidth values of the ongoing calls vary according to the trafficsituations is one of the promising concepts for overcoming poor resource conditions due to handoffs in mobilecellular networks. However, quantifying the level of bandwidth degradation of the ongoing calls in an adaptiveframework is important in view of Quality of Service (QoS) Provisioning. Therefore we introduce new QoSparameters, the Degradation Degree Ratio (DDR), which represents the average portion of the degradationdegree during degradation pehod of a call, and the Degradation Area Ratio (DAR), which represents the averageratio of a call's degradation level considering both the period and the degree of degradation jointly in multi-levelbandwidth service. We also develop a new analytical model for estimating the QoS measures such as theDegradation Pehod Ratio (DPR), DDR and DAR. We show how to calculate the QoS measures and illustrate themethod by numerical examples. The proposed model can be used to determine the optimal parameter of theCAC scheme and analyze the sensitivity ofthe QoS parameters in adaptive networks.
