Undoubtedly, Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) applications for 5G and Beyond wireless networks are witnessing a notable attention recently. However, they require significant computational and storage resources at the end device and/or the network via Edge Cloud (EC) support. In this work, a MAR service is considered under the lenses of microservices where MAR service components can be decomposed and anchored at different locations ranging from the end device to different ECs in order to optimize the overall service and network efficiency. To this end, we propose a mobility aware MAR service decomposition using a Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) deep neural network to provide efficient pro-active decision making in real-time. More specifically, the LSTM deep neural network is trained with optimal solutions derived from a mathematical programming formulation in an offline manner. Then, decision making at the inference stage is used to optimize service decomposition of MAR services. A wide set of numerical investigations reveal that the mobility aware LSTM deep neural network manage to outperform recently proposed schemes in terms of both decision making quality as well as computational time.

The combination of 5G and Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) can significantly reduce application delay by lowering transmission delay and bringing computational capabilities closer to the end user. Therefore, 5G MEC could enable excellent user experi
ence in applications like Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR), which are computation-intensive, and delay and jitter-sensitive. However, existing 5G handoff algorithms often do not consider the computational load of MEC servers, are too complex for real-time execution, or do not integrate easily with the standard protocol stack. Thus they can impair the performance of 5G MEC. To address this gap, we propose Comp-HO, a handoff algorithm that finds a local solution to the joint problem of optimizing signal strength and computational load. Additionally, Comp-HO can easily be integrated into current LTE and 5G base stations thanks to its simplicity and standard-friendly deployability. Specifically, we evaluate Comp-HO through a custom NS-3 simulator which we calibrate via MAR prototype measurements from a real-world 5G testbed. We simulate both Comp-HO and several classic handoff algorithms. The results show that, even without a global optimum, the proposed algorithm still significantly reduces the number of large delays, caused by congestion at MECs, at the expense of a small increase in transmission delay.
Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) mixes physical environments with user-interactive virtual annotations. Immersive MAR experiences are supported by computation-intensive tasks which rely on offloading mechanisms to ease device workloads. However, this i
ntroduces additional network traffic which in turn influences the motion-to-photon latency (a determinant of user-perceived quality of experience). Therefore, a proper transport protocol is crucial to minimise transmission latency and ensure sufficient throughput to support MAR performance. Relatedly, 5G, a potential MAR supporting technology, is widely believed to be smarter, faster, and more efficient than its predecessors. However, the suitability and performance of existing transport protocols in MAR in the 5G context has not been explored. Therefore, we present an evaluation of popular transport protocols, including UDP, TCP, MPEG-TS, RTP, and QUIC, with a MAR system on a real-world 5G testbed. We also compare with their 5G performance with LTE and WiFi. Our evaluation results indicate that TCP has the lowest round-trip-time on 5G, with a median of $15.09pm0.26$ ms, while QUIC appears to perform better on LTE. Through an additional test with varying signal quality (specifically, degrading secondary synchronisation signal reference signal received quality), we discover that protocol performance appears to be significantly impacted by signal quality.
We investigate a type of emerging user-assisted mobile applications or services, referred to as Dynamic Mobile Ad-hoc Crowd Service (DMACS), such as collaborative streaming via smartphones or location privacy protection through a crowd of smartphone
users. Such services are provided and consumed by users carrying smart mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) who are in close proximity of each other (e.g., within Bluetooth range). Users in a DMACS system dynamically arrive and depart over time, and are divided into multiple possibly overlapping groups according to radio range constraints. Crucial to the success of such systems is a mechanism that incentivizes users participation and ensures fair trading. In this paper, we design a multi-market, dynamic double auction mechanism, referred to as M-CHAIN, and show that it is truthful, feasible, individual-rational, no-deficit, and computationally efficient. The novelty and significance of M-CHAIN is that it addresses and solves the fair trading problem in a multi-group or multi-market dynamic double auction problem which naturally occurs in a mobile wireless environment. We demonstrate its efficiency via simulations based on generated user patterns (stochastic arrivals, random market clustering of users) and real-world traces.
Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) integrates computer-generated virtual objects with physical environments for mobile devices. MAR systems enable users to interact with MAR devices, such as smartphones and head-worn wearables, and performs seamless tran
sitions from the physical world to a mixed world with digital entities. These MAR systems support user experiences by using MAR devices to provide universal accessibility to digital contents. Over the past 20 years, a number of MAR systems have been developed, however, the studies and design of MAR frameworks have not yet been systematically reviewed from the perspective of user-centric design. This article presents the first effort of surveying existing MAR frameworks (count: 37) and further discusses the latest studies on MAR through a top-down approach: 1) MAR applications; 2) MAR visualisation techniques adaptive to user mobility and contexts; 3) systematic evaluation of MAR frameworks including supported platforms and corresponding features such as tracking, feature extraction plus sensing capabilities; and 4) underlying machine learning approaches supporting intelligent operations within MAR systems. Finally, we summarise the development of emerging research fields, current state-of-the-art, and discuss the important open challenges and possible theoretical and technical directions. This survey aims to benefit both researchers and MAR system developers alike.
We present an approach for visualizing mobile robots through an Augmented Reality headset when there is no line-of-sight visibility between the robot and the human. Three elements are visualized in Augmented Reality: 1) Robots 3D model to indicate it
s position, 2) An arrow emanating from the robot to indicate its planned movement direction, and 3) A 2D grid to represent the ground plane. We conduct a user study with 18 participants, in which each participant are asked to retrieve objects, one at a time, from stations at the two sides of a T-junction at the end of a hallway where a mobile robot is roaming. The results show that visualizations improved the perceived safety and efficiency of the task and led to participants being more comfortable with the robot within their personal spaces. Furthermore, visualizing the motion intent in addition to the robot model was found to be more effective than visualizing the robot model alone. The proposed system can improve the safety of automated warehouses by increasing the visibility and predictability of robots.
