SmartPDR: Smartphone-Based Pedestrian Dead Reckoning for Indoor Localization

Abstract: Indoor pedestrian tracking extends location-based services to indoor environments where GPS signal is rarely detected. Typical indoor localization method is Wi-Fi-based positioning system, which is practical showing accuracy and extending coverage. However, it involves significant costs of installing and managing wireless access points. A practical indoor pedestrian-tracking approach should consider the absence of any infrastructure or pretrained database. In this paper, we present a smartphone-based pedestrian dead reckoning, SmartPDR, which tracks pedestrians through typical dead reckoning approach using data from inertial sensors embedded in smartphones. SmartPDR does not require any complex and expensive additional device or infrastructure that most existing pedestrian tracking systems rely on. The proposed system was implemented on off-the-shelf smartphones and the performance was evaluated in several buildings. Despite inherent localization errors from low-cost noisy sensors and complicated human movements, SmartPDR successfully tracks indoor user's location, which is confirmed from the experimental results with reasonable location accuracy. Indoor pedestrian tracking system using smartphone inertial sensors can be a promising methodology validating its practical usage through real deployment.

Joint subcarrier and power allocation in uplink OFDMA systems

Abstract: In this letter, we focus on joint subcarrier and power allocation in the uplink of an OFDMA system Our goal is to maximize the rate-sum capacity in the uplink For the purpose, we formulate an optimization problem subject to subcarrier and power constraints and draw necessary conditions for optimality, from which we derive joint subcarrier and power allocation algorithms Simulation results show that our proposed scheme enhances the system capacity, providing almost near optimal solutions with low computational burden

A proportional fair scheduling for multicarrier transmission systems

Abstract: This letter extends the proportional fair (PF) scheduling proposed in the high data rate (HDR) system to multicarrier transmission systems. It is known that the PF allocation (F. P. Kelly et al. (1998)) results in the maximization of the sum of logarithmic average user rates. We propose a PF scheduling that assigns users to each carrier while maximizing the sum of logarithmic average user rates.

A proportional fair scheduling for multicarrier transmission systems

Abstract: In this paper, we proposed a proportional fair (PF) scheduling algorithm for systems with multiple carriers such as orthogonal frequency division multiple access systems. The scheduler assigns users to carriers to maximize the sum of logarithmic transmission rate, which is compatible with the definition by RE Kelly (Journal Operational Research Soc., vol.49, p.237-252, 1998). It is shown that the PF scheduling in the high data rate (HDR) system proposed by Qualcomm is a special case of our proposed scheme. A simple system is presented, which proves its superiority over other schemes for multicarrier transmission, e.g. extended round robin and the PF scheduling scheme for the HDR system.

A Proportional Fairness Algorithm with QoS Provision in Downlink OFDMA Systems

Abstract: In this letter, we formulate a downlink packet scheduling problem for proportional fairness in orthogonal frequency division multiple access with frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems to derive necessary conditions for optimality, which results in efficient subcarrier and power allocation algorithms. Simulation results reveal that our proposed algorithm achieves the tradeoff between system throughput and fairness

On the capacity of a cellular CDMA system

Abstract: It is shown that, particularly for terrestrial cellular telephony, the interference-suppression feature of CDMA (code division multiple access) can result in a many-fold increase in capacity over analog and even over competing digital techniques. A single-cell system, such as a hubbed satellite network, is addressed, and the basic expression for capacity is developed. The corresponding expressions for a multiple-cell system are derived. and the distribution on the number of users supportable per cell is determined. It is concluded that properly augmented and power-controlled multiple-cell CDMA promises a quantum increase in current cellular capacity. >

A Survey of Indoor Localization Systems and Technologies

Abstract: Indoor localization has recently witnessed an increase in interest, due to the potential wide range of services it can provide by leveraging Internet of Things (IoT), and ubiquitous connectivity. Different techniques, wireless technologies and mechanisms have been proposed in the literature to provide indoor localization services in order to improve the services provided to the users. However, there is a lack of an up-to-date survey paper that incorporates some of the recently proposed accurate and reliable localization systems. In this paper, we aim to provide a detailed survey of different indoor localization techniques, such as angle of arrival (AoA), time of flight (ToF), return time of flight (RTOF), and received signal strength (RSS); based on technologies, such as WiFi, radio frequency identification device (RFID), ultra wideband (UWB), Bluetooth, and systems that have been proposed in the literature. This paper primarily discusses localization and positioning of human users and their devices. We highlight the strengths of the existing systems proposed in the literature. In contrast with the existing surveys, we also evaluate different systems from the perspective of energy efficiency, availability, cost, reception range, latency, scalability, and tracking accuracy. Rather than comparing the technologies or techniques, we compare the localization systems and summarize their working principle. We also discuss remaining challenges to accurate indoor localization.

Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation for Mobile-Edge Computation Offloading

Abstract: Mobile-edge computation offloading (MECO) off-loads intensive mobile computation to clouds located at the edges of cellular networks. Thereby, MECO is envisioned as a promising technique for prolonging the battery lives and enhancing the computation capacities of mobiles. In this paper, we study resource allocation for a multiuser MECO system based on time-division multiple access (TDMA) and orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA). First, for the TDMA MECO system with infinite or finite cloud computation capacity, the optimal resource allocation is formulated as a convex optimization problem for minimizing the weighted sum mobile energy consumption under the constraint on computation latency. The optimal policy is proved to have a threshold-based structure with respect to a derived offloading priority function , which yields priorities for users according to their channel gains and local computing energy consumption. As a result, users with priorities above and below a given threshold perform complete and minimum offloading, respectively. Moreover, for the cloud with finite capacity, a sub-optimal resource-allocation algorithm is proposed to reduce the computation complexity for computing the threshold. Next, we consider the OFDMA MECO system, for which the optimal resource allocation is formulated as a mixed-integer problem. To solve this challenging problem and characterize its policy structure, a low-complexity sub-optimal algorithm is proposed by transforming the OFDMA problem to its TDMA counterpart. The corresponding resource allocation is derived by defining an average offloading priority function and shown to have close-to-optimal performance in simulation.
