Small antennas with broad beamwidth integrated on a drone enclosed in a protective structure

Anja Skrivervik, Ismael Vico Triviño

In this paper, we analyze the integration of small antennas in a drone protected by a conductive structure. They must be light and resistant to provide high collision resilience, which is critical for drones flown indoors and in complex environments. To ac ...

Improved Network-Calculus Nodal Delay-Bounds in Time-Sensitive Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Eleni Stai, Ehsan Mohammadpour

In time-sensitive networks, bounds on worst-case delays are typically obtained by using network calculus and assuming that flows are constrained by bit-level arrival curves. However, in IEEE TSN or IETF DetNet, source flows are constrained on the number of ...

Time vs. Truth: Age-Distortion Tradeoffs and Strategies for Distributed Inference

Yunus Inan

In 1948, Claude Shannon laid the foundations of information theory, which grew out of a study to find the ultimate limits of source compression, and of reliable communication. Since then, information theory has proved itself not only as a quest to find the ...

A Network Calculus Analysis of Asynchronous Mechanisms in Time-Sensitive Networks

Ehsan Mohammadpour

Time-sensitive networks provide worst-case guarantees for applications in domains such as the automobile, automation, avionics, and the space industries. A violation of these guarantees can cause considerable financial loss and serious damage to human live ...

Increasing Cellular Network Energy Efficiency for Railway Corridors

Andreas Peter Burg, Ruben Merz, Adrian Schumacher

Modern trains act as Faraday cages making it challenging to provide high cellular data capacities to passengers. A solution is the deployment of linear cells along railway tracks, forming a cellular corridor. To provide a sufficiently high data capacity, m ...

Enhancing the Reliability of Dense LoRaWAN Networks With Multi-User Receivers

Andreas Peter Burg, Joachim Tobias Tapparel

LoRaWAN is a low-power wireless technology that provides long-range connectivity to battery-powered Internet of Things (IoT) devices. To minimize the energy consumption of the IoT nodes, LoRaWAN networks use for the uplink a pure non-slotted ALOHA multiple ...

Destination buffer analysis for packets rejection obliteration in multi-channel networks

Georgia Fragkouli

In this paper we study a multi-channel network, each station of which is equipped with a network interface that has a receiver buffer of multiple packets. In this way, each station is able to receive multiple packets per time instant. We adopt a synchronou ...

Improved Delay Bound for a Service Curve Element with Known Transmission Rate

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Eleni Stai, Ehsan Mohammadpour

Network calculus is often used to prove delay bounds in deterministic networks, using arrival and service curves. We consider a FIFO system that offers a rate-latency service curve and where packet transmission occurs at line rate without pre-emption. The ...

Cross-Packet Coding for Delay-Constrained Streaming Applications

Dario Floreano, Giuseppe Cocco

Delay-constrained streaming from a moving platform is of paramount importance for applications such as the remote control of drones, where a low-delay video stream is required in order to provide visual feedback to the pilot while providing high quality vi ...

A Theory of Traffic Regulators for Deterministic Networks With Application to Interleaved Regulators

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

We introduce Pi-regulation, a new definition of traffic regulation which extends both the arrival curves of network calculus and Chang's max-plus g-regulation, and also includes new types of regulation, such as packet rate limitations. We provide a new exa ...

Bridging the gap between dataplanes and commodity operating systems

Georgios Prekas

The conventional wisdom is that aggressive networking requirements, such as high packet rates for small messages and microsecond-scale tail latency, are best addressed outside the kernel, in a user-level networking stack. In particular, dataplanes borrow d ...

An LP Characterization of the Secret-message Capacity of Three Erasure Networks With Feedback

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, László Czap, Vinod Malathidevi Prabhakaran

This paper presents exact capacity characterizations for the case, when a principal, Alice, wants to securely send a message to another principal, Bob, over three network configurations: the parallel edges network, the V-network, and the triangle network. ...

Random Access With Physical-Layer Network Coding

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

We consider a physical-layer network coding strategy for the random-access channel, based on compute-and-forward. When packets collide, it is possible to reliably recover a linear combination of the packets at the receiver. Over many rounds of transmission ...
