LTE femtocells have been widely deployed to increase network capacity and to offload mobile data traffic from macrocells. While cellular users mobility behaviors are taken into consideration, a dilemma is formed: Should a User Equipment (UE) either handover into a femtocell or keep the current connection with a macrocell? Indeed, various user mobility behaviors may incur significant signaling overhead and degrade femtocell offloading capability due to frequent handover in/out femtocells. To address this dilemma, in this paper we propose an Optimal Threshold Offloading (OTO) algorithm considering the tradeoff between the signaling overhead and femtocell offloading capability. We develop an analytical model and define two performance metrics to quantify the tradeoff. The proposed model not only models user mobility behaviors but also captures femtocell offloading benefits, and shed light on their fundamental relationship. The correctness of analytical model and simulation model are cross-validated by extensive ns2 simulations. Both analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the OTO algorithm can significantly reduce signaling overhead at the minor cost of femtocell offloading capability. The results enable wide applicability in various scenarios, and therefore, have important theoretical significance. Moreover, the analytical results provide a quick way to evaluate signaling overhead and offloading capability in LTE networks without wide deployment, saving on cost and time.

As novel applications spring up in future network scenarios, the requirements on network service capabilities for differentiated services or burst services are diverse. Aiming at the research of collaborative computing and resource allocation in edge
scenarios, migrating computing tasks to the edge and cloud for computing requires a comprehensive consideration of energy consumption, bandwidth, and delay. Our paper proposes a collaboration mechanism based on computation offloading, which is flexible and customizable to meet the diversified requirements of differentiated networks. This mechanism handles the terminals differentiated computing tasks by establishing a collaborative computation offloading model between the cloud server and edge server. Experiments show that our method has more significant improvements over regular optimization algorithms, including reducing the execution time of computing tasks, improving the utilization of server resources, and decreasing the terminals energy consumption.
With the mass deployment of computing-intensive applications and delay-sensitive applications on end devices, only adequate computing resources can meet differentiated services delay requirements. By offloading tasks to cloud servers or edge servers,
computation offloading can alleviate computing and storage limitations and reduce delay and energy consumption. However, few of the existing offloading schemes take into consideration the cloud-edge collaboration and the constraint of energy consumption and task dependency. This paper builds a collaborative computation offloading model in cloud and edge computing and formulates a multi-objective optimization problem. Constructed by fusing optimal transport and Policy-Based RL, we propose an Optimal-Transport-Based RL approach to resolve the offloading problem and make the optimal offloading decision for minimizing the overall cost of delay and energy consumption. Simulation results show that the proposed approach can effectively reduce the cost and significantly outperforms existing optimization solutions.
Broadcast routing has become an important research field for vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) recently. However, the packet delivery rate is generally low in existing VANET broadcast routing protocols. Therefore, the design of an appropriate broadc
ast protocol based on the features of VANET has become a crucial part of the development of VANET. This paper analyzes the disadvantage of existing broadcast routing protocols in VANETs, and proposes an improved algorithm (namely ODAM-C) based on the ODAM (Optimized Dissemination of Alarm Messages) protocol. The ODAM-C algorithm improves the packet delivery rate by two mechanisms based on the forwarding features of ODAM. The first distance-based mechanism reduces the possibility of packet loss by considering the angles between source nodes, forwarding nodes and receiving nodes. The second mechanism increases the redundancy of forwarding nodes to guarantee the packet success delivery ratio. We show by analysis and simulations that the proposed algorithm can improve packet delivery rate for vehicular networks compared against two widely-used existing protocols.
An efficient and fair node scheduling is a big challenge in multihop wireless networks. In this work, we propose a distributed node scheduling algorithm, called Local Voting. The idea comes from the finding that the shortest delivery time or delay is
obtained when the load is equalized throughout the network. Simulation results demonstrate that Local Voting achieves better performance in terms of average delay, maximum delay, and fairness compared to several representative scheduling algorithms from the literature. Despite being distributed, Local Voting has a very close performance to a centralized algorithm that is considered to have the optimal performance.
Two-tier femtocell networks is an efficient communication architecture that significantly improves throughput in indoor environments with low power consumption. Traditionally, a femtocell network is usually configured to be either completely open or
completely closed in that its channels are either made available to all users or used by its own users only. This may limit network flexibility and performance. It is desirable for owners of femtocell base stations if a femtocell can partially open its channels for external users access. In such scenarios, spectrum and energy efficiency becomes a critical issue in the design of femtocell network protocols and structure. In this paper, we conduct performance analysis for two-tier femtocell networks with partially open channels. In particular, we build a Markov chain to model the channel access in the femtocell network and then derive the performance metrics in terms of the blocking probabilities. Based on stationary state probabilities derived by Markov chain models, spectrum and energy efficiency are modeled and analyzed under different scenarios characterized by critical parameters, including number of femtocells in a macrocell, average number of users, and number of open channels in a femtocell. Numerical and Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation results indicate that the number of open channels in a femtocell has an adverse impact on the spectrum and energy efficiency of two-tier femtocell networks. Results in this paper provide guidelines for trading off spectrum and energy efficiency of two-tier femtocell networks by configuring different numbers of open channels in a femtocell.
