Performance Evaluation of VoIP over Wireless Local Area Network

Abstract Wireless local area networks (WLANs) have been rapidly developed in recent years. It is used for various applications. VoWLAN, which transmits VoIP data over WLANs, shows its amazing attraction and constitutes one of the most flourishing applications nowadays in WLANs. One of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) main drawbacks, when compared to wired networks, is that WLANs are less predictable and efficient. Wireless physical medium is harder to be controlled than physical wire. WLAN medium is also unlicensed, and thus susceptible to interferences produced by other devices. Therefore, great effort is being done in order to obtain Quality of Service (QoS) in real-time voice communications using WLANs. This topic has opened plenty of new research lines to upgrade current WLAN standards. In this thesis, a study is carried out for the behavior of new Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols defined in IEEE 802.11e draft standard Enhanced Distributed coordination function EDCF as well as for its subsequent modified versions. The Adaptive Enhanced Distributed coordination function AEDCF, designed to support QoS when providing voice communication services between stations in WLAN. Also presents experimental results obtained from simulations, and compare our results with simulations made using IEEE 802.11 standard MAC. The simulation work was done using NS-2 simulator, with the addition of specific modules for 802.11e. A performance comparison is carried out between the modified MAC scheme and IEEE standard MAC scheme, using Experimental simulation models. It is found that the adaptive technique method not only increases the medium utilization ratio and lowers the collision rate by more than 50%, but also enhances vii the overall throughput by around 20% compared with the basic IEEE 802.11DCF technique.

تأثير سرعة حركة جهاز النقال على فشل التحويل الرأسي في شبكة الجيل الرابع المستقبلية للأجهزة النقالة

يُتوقع في شبكات الجيل الرابع المستقبلية للهاتف النقال بأن تدعم تقنية الشبكات اللاسلكية المحلية تقنية الشبكات الخليوية ذات التغطية الواسعة، و هذا ينتج عنه شبكات لاسلكية مهجنة مبنية على أساس بروتوكول الانترنت . على الرغم من أن تقنية الشبكات الخليوية ذات التغطية الواسعة كشبكة الجيل الثالث للهاتف النقال تسمح بإعطاء سرعات لنقل البيانات تصل إلى2 ميجابت، فهي تعتبر سرعات صغيرة عند مقارنتها بالسرعات المنجزة في التقنيات اللاسلكية الأخرى كالشبكة المحلية اللاسلكية التي تصل سرعتها إلى 54 ميجابت أو أكثر. بسبب ذلك تم عمل عدة سيناريوهات لربط هاتين الشبكتين المتكاملتين حيث أنّ الشبكة الخليوية من الجيل الثالث تعطي تغطية شاملة والشبكة المحلية اللاسلكية تعطي سرعات عالية لنقل البيانات. إنّ جهاز النقال يمكنه أن يحوّل بين هاتين الشبكتين عن طريق عملية تعرف بالتحويل الرأسي. إنّ المقدرة على توقيت عملية التحويل الرأسي أثناء عملية الاتصال من شبكة نظام معين إلى شبكة نظام آخر تعتبر من المتطلبات الهامة لتقليل احتمالية فشل التحويل وفقد البيانات أثناء التحويل. هذا المطلب الهام يجب أن يتحقق للأجهزة النقالة المتحركة عند سرعات مختلفة، من المترجلين إلى المركبات الآلية. في هذه الرسالة، تم تحليل تأثير سرعة حركة الجهاز النقال على التأخّر الزمني لكشف الحاجة لبدء عملية التحويل الرأسي ومن ثم على فشل هذا التحويل، وذلك باستخدام الطرق الرياضية. إضافة إلى ذلك تم استخدام الطرق الرياضية لتحليل تأثير سرعة حركة جهاز النقال وظاهرة تصادم الإشارات التنبيهية في الشبكة المحلية اللاسلكية على فشل التحويل الرأسي، كما تم إيضاح كيفية تعديل معدل ارسال الإشارات التنبيهية للأفضل، و ذلك لتقليل احتمالية فشل التحويل الرأسي مع تقليل سعة الشبكة المحلية اللاسلكية المحجوزة من قبل الإشارات التنبيهية. Abstract It is expected in fourth generation (4G) future mobile networks that WLAN technology will complement cellular wide area technology resulting in overlay hybrid networks based on IP protocol. Although cellular wide area technology such as the (UMTS) allows for data speeds of up to 2 Mbps, this is much less when compared to the data speeds achievable with other wireless network technology such as the IEEE 802.11 WLAN standards which can reach 54 Mbps. Because of that multiple scenarios have been made in order to integrate this two complementary networks : UMTS offers universal coverage and WLAN offers high connection data rate spots. The mobile terminal can switch from WLAN to cellular UMTS or vice versa by a process known as vertical handoff. The ability to timely process vertical handoffs, during communication sessions, from one network type to another will be an important requirement for minimizing handoff failure probability and data loss. This must be achieved for mobile terminals moving at various speeds from pedestrian’s speed to a fast moving vehicle’s. In this thesis, the effect of mobile terminal moving speed on vertical handoff detection delay and, hence, on vertical handoff failure is analytically studied. In addition, the effect of mobile terminal speed and beacon frame collision in WLAN on vertical handoff failure is analyzed through mathematical approach. Also it is shown how to optimize the beacon period in order to have minimum vertical handoff failure probability and minimum WLAN access point channel capacity occupied by beacon signals.

Improved Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes with Multiple Transmit Antennas Using Hadamard Transform

In this paper, imposing the Hadamard Transform (HDT) on Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (OSTBC) schemes using multiple transmit antennas is proposed in order to increase the reliability and improve the error performance of wireless communications. It is referred to as joint Hadamard transform and OSTBC schemes with multiple transmit antennas. However, HDT is used to change the location of constellation points by converting the transmit symbols of OSTBC system, and hence extending the Euclidean distance between transmit symbols for a precise detection. Simulation results demonstrated that increasing the number of transmit antennas in OSTBC systems employing 8-PSK improves the Bit Error Rate (BER) performance as in the case of OSTBC 2×2 scheme where an SNR of about 13.5 dB is required to achieve a BER of 〖10〗^(-6), while only about 7 dB in OSTBC 8×8 scheme is required to obtain the same error probability. It is also demonstrated that imposing the Hadamard criteria on the OSTBC 2×2, 4×4, and 8×8 schemes has showed a performance improvement of about 3 dB, 6 dB and 9 dB, respectively, as compared to the conventional OSTBC systems.
