Research on multi-access selection mechanism for multi-mode terminals in heterogeneous wireless networks by Wen-hao FAN, Yuan-an LIU, Fan WU

“…Aiming at further promoting the multi-mode terminal’s transmission performance and service continuity,a multi-access selection mechanism for multi-mode terminals which exploits the multi-radio transmission diversity of the heterogeneous wireless networks for accessing multiple networks simultaneously and executing parallel transmission was designed.The mechanism applied exponential smoothing method to process the measured parameters;used state transition models to manage access selection strategies of terminal’s multiple network interface cards;adopted utility functions to dynamically balance terminal’s power consumption and transmission speed.Simulation results demonstrate the decrease of unnecessary re-selections,the enhancement of transmission energy efficiency under the premise of the guarantee of terminal’s power consumption and throughput compared with the traditional switched access selection.…”

Physical-layer network coding in k-users MIMO-Y two-way relay channels by Tao WANG, Yong WANG, Yue ZHANG

“…In order to exchange information among k users using the technology of physical-layer network coding in the multiple input multiple output Y two-way relay channels,the GSA-GSA scheme was proposed,using the technology of general signal alignment during the uplink and the downlink.The signals were exchanged between every source node align in a transformed subspace,rather than the direct subspace.This was realized by jointly designing the precoding matrices at all source nodes and the processing matrix at the relay.The constraints of the number of sending and receiving antennas and the sum rate of proposed scheme were analyzed.In simulation,it can figure out that the proposed scheme needs fewer antennas in the whole system and can improve the achievable system sum rate under the same SNR and degrees of freedom.…”

New method of intelligent data transmission for IoV by Degan ZHANG, Pengzhen ZHAO, Jinxin GAO, Ting ZHANG, Changle GONG

“…Internet of vehicle (IoV) is a hot research topic of the intelligent transportation,and the research of new method of the intelligent data transmission is one of the key technologies.In order to solve the problem of intelligent data transmission of IoV,a kind of new method which includes the important parameters such as vehicle density,vehicle speed,data transmission rate and data delay was proposed.By setting up network model of IoV and delaying function,the optimal routing method for intelligent data transmission which is based on Markovian decision theory was designed.Through comparison experiments with the relative methods show that the performance on improving the data transmission rate and shortening the delay of data transmission of IoV,it has important value for many applications of intelligent transportation with IoV,such as vehicle dynamic remote monitoring.…”
