  • The tremendous increase in mobile data traffic coupled with fierce competition in wireless industry brings about spectrum scarcity and bandwidth fragmentation. This inevitably results in asymmetric-valued long term evolution (LTE) spectrum allocation that stems from different timing for twice improvement in capacity between competing operators, given spectrum allocations today. This motivates us to study the economic effects of asymmetric-valued LTE spectrum allocation. In this paper, we formulate the interactions between operators and users as a hierarchical dynamic game framework, where two spiteful operators simultaneously make spectrum acquisition decisions in the upper-level first-price sealed-bid auction game, and dynamic pricing decisions in the lower-level differential game, taking into account user subscription dynamics. Using backward induction, we derive the equilibrium of the entire game under mild conditions. Through analytical and numerical results, we verify our studies by comparing the latest result of LTE spectrum auction in South Korea, which serves as the benchmark of asymmetric-valued LTE spectrum auction designs.

  • In recent year, several types of PON(Passive Optical Networks) have been adopted into the subscriber loops for the high speed subscriber lines to meet the needs of some applications based on the Internet and the rapid increase of the Internet users. GPON(Gigabit PON) is a typical access network technology of these PONs which adopt the DBA(Dynamic bandwidth Allocation) scheme in order to transmit upstream traffic efficiently. In this paper, we introduce the gated polling system with a two-stage queue in order to analyze the delay performance of the DBA scheme in a GPON. We use a continuous time queueing model for deriving the mean cycle time and for obtaining the mean packet delay. We give some numerical results to investigate the delay performance for the symmetric polling system with statistically identical stations.

  • In this paper, we propose the PON-based access network based on conventional TDM-PON architecture, which utilizes WDM wavelength channel and bandwidth dynamically. It is also described a dynamic MAC protocol in order to increase the number of subscribers and efficiency of resource utilization. Of particular importance in the proposed approach for MAC protocol is that the wavelength channel and time slot for up/downlink is dynamically allocated according to the required QoS level and the amount of data in data transmission, through the dedicated control channel between OLT and ONU. We evaluate the performance of average packet end-to-end delay in a statistical analysis and numerical analysis. In addition, through simulations with various traffic models, we verified the superior performance of the proposed approach by comparing with the results of other E-PONs.

  • Personal mobile communication has been developed up to IMT-2000 which is called the third generation mobile communication. The first generation of personal mobile communication was analog cellular, the second was digital cellular, and the 2.5 generation was PCS. Before the third generation had been developed, the personal mobile communication service was focused mainly on the voice-oriented service. But, we can expect that multimedia service after the third generation system will be the core of the subject. T In this thesis, we propose a dynamic resource allocation algorithm in the UTRA TDD systems which can support the asymmetric traffic propensity and multimedia traffic. The proposed algorithm consists two sub-algorithms. One is the dynamic channel allocation method that determines the amount of bandwidth assigned between uplink and downlink according to resource allocation status list through asymmetric traffic propensity. The other is the channel access mechanism that assigns RU to bearer service generated in a cell. By simulation, the proposed dynamic resource allocation algorithm is proved to support asymmetric propensity of traffic and shows a better throughput for multimedia traffic.
