Convolutional neural network and dual-factor enhanced variational Bayes adaptive Kalman filter based indoor localization with Wi-Fi
Various research works have been proposed for Wi-Fi-based indoor localization, including Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)-based fingerprint algorithm, Angle of Arrival (AoA)-based algorithm and so on. However, since RSSI value ...
On efficient radio resource calendaring in cloud radio access network
We propose in this paper a radio resource allocation scheme in the context of Cloud-based Radio Access Networks (C-RAN) run by a single operator. We specifically leverage bandwidth calendaring, a technique that allows shifting bulk ...
Inter-domain routing bottlenecks and their aggravation
As autonomous systems tend to forward packets along the path with minimal routing cost, Internet routes are unevenly distributed on physical links. Links which a large number of routes go through are called routing bottlenecks. ...
Multipath transport and packet spraying for efficient data delivery in data centres
Modern data centres provide large aggregate network capacity and multiple paths among servers. Traffic in data centres is very diverse; most of the data is produced by long, bandwidth hungry flows but the large majority of flows, which ...
SDN-enabled distributed open exchange: Dynamic QoS-path optimization in multi-operator services
We propose an SDN-enabled distributed open exchange framework for dynamic optimization of end-to-end (E2E) quality of service (QoS) paths over multi-operator networks, which enables individual network service providers (NSP) to offer ...
