Channel Access Algorithms with Active Link Protection for Wireless Communication Networks with Power Control Nicholas Bambos, Shou C. Chen, Gregory J. Pottie
Agenda • Overview • Motivation (Problem statement) • Foundation work • DPC/ALP algorithm • Properties of DPC/ALP algorithm • Extensions to algorithm VDO and FDO • Simulation results and extensions • Comments
Overview: DPC/ALP • DPC: An Algorithm for transmit power control • Adaptive • Distributed • On-line • Different QoS levels • ALP: Admission control algorithm • Protect existing users form disruption • Method for new users to enter wireless network • “Smooth dynamics”
Motivation (Problem Statement) • Power control with • Entry and • Egress from the network • While maintaining QoS • For existing users Admissible?
Model QoS constraint
Foundation Work: DPC • Distributed Power Control • P(k+1)=FP(k)+u • P->P* where • But • Convergence path may lead to “outage” or QoS problems • Alternative form: Foschini and Miljanic
DPC/ALP Algorithm • Based on DPC (above) • Active link protection – Ensures existing users QoS is maintained when new users are added. • Distributed admission control • Extended – Voluntary drop out Mechanism for “hot spots”
new DPC/ALP Algorithm – continued admitted Geometric power up Protection margin or buffer zone
Properties of DPC/ALP • User is admitted when • Once admitted continuously admitted • bounded power overshoot • New users • Increasing SIR’s • If admissible then admitted in bounded time • But infinite power may be required Admissibility vs. admissibility
DPC/ALP/VDO • Voluntary Drop-Out • When too many new users none wins • Solution is one or more links backs off • Types of VDO • Coin flipping after a parameterized number of tries • Timer based
DPC/ALP/VDO/FDO • Power constraint • FDO – forced drop out • Active user nears max • Signals local users seeking admission to drop out • Reduces contention for resources
Simulation results • VDO • Increases number of users significantly • Results in backlog of users not yet admitted • Threshold effect for great enough arrival rate of new users! Clogging effect • VDO and FDO • Decrease in time to admission • Higher through-put Hot spots Congestion control
Extensions • Probing • Predict admissibility from two SIR samples Solve for X Y Admit after k=
Comments • Dynamics of admission control • Critical to ad-hoc networks • Rapidly changing user group • Results are very parameter sensitive
