Quality-Of-Service Provisioning For Smart City Applications Using Software-Defined Networking, Basima Kurungadan Oct 2022

Quality-Of-Service Provisioning For Smart City Applications Using Software-Defined Networking, Basima Kurungadan

Theses

In the current world, most cities have WiFi Access Points (AP) in every nook and corner. Hence upraising these cities to the status of a smart city is a more easily achievable task than before. Internet-of-Things (IoT) connections primarily use WiFi standards to form the veins of a smart city. Unfortunately, this vast potential of WiFi technology in the genesis of smart cities is somehow compromised due to its failure in meeting unique Quality-of-Service (QoS) demands of smart city applications. Out of the following QoS factors; transmission link bandwidth, packet transmission delay, jitter, and packet loss rate, not all applications …


Traffic Characterization Of An Internet Of Things(Iot) Network Architecture, Maitha Saif Salem Mohammed Alderei Apr 2018

Traffic Characterization Of An Internet Of Things(Iot) Network Architecture, Maitha Saif Salem Mohammed Alderei

Electrical Engineering Theses

Internet of things (IoT) is an evolving paradigm that is currently getting more attention and rapidly gaining importance. The basic idea of IoT is to connect everyone and everything to the Internet for information exchange. It is essential to develop a clear understanding of characteristics of IoT traffic sources as well as to find a traffic model that efficiently characterizes the statistical behavior of IoT traffic. Since many IoT devices generate relatively small sized data, we are particularly interested in an IoT network architecture where data from a number of different IoT devices are aggregated at an IoT gateway. We …


Performance Study For Capillary Machine-To-Machine Networks, Maisaa Othman Albaghdadi Apr 2017

Performance Study For Capillary Machine-To-Machine Networks, Maisaa Othman Albaghdadi

Theses

Communication technologies witness a wide and rapid pervasiveness of wireless machine-to-machine (M2M) communications. It is emerging to apply for data transfer among devices without human intervention. Capillary M2M networks represent a candidate for providing reliable M2M connectivity. In this thesis, we propose a wireless network architecture that aims at supporting a wide range of M2M applications (either real-time or non-real-time) with an acceptable QoS level. The architecture uses capillary gateways to reduce the number of devices communicating directly with a cellular network such as LTE. Moreover, the proposed architecture reduces the traffic load on the cellular network by providing capillary …
