TLDR
The features of M2M services in the third generation (3G) long-term evolution and its advancement (LTE-Advanced) networks are reviewed and various radio resource allocation schemes are presented to quantify their utility in LTE-Advanced cellular networks.Abstract:
Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications are expected to provide ubiquitous connectivity between machines without the need of human intervention. To support such a large number of autonomous devices, the M2M system architecture needs to be extremely power and spectrally efficient. This article thus briefly reviews the features of M2M services in the third generation (3G) long-term evolution and its advancement (LTE-Advanced) networks. Architectural enhancements are then presented for supporting M2M services in LTE-Advanced cellular networks. To increase spectral efficiency, the same spectrum is expected to be utilized for human-to- human (H2H) communications as well as M2M communications. We therefore present various radio resource allocation schemes and quantify their utility in LTE-Advanced cellular networks. System-level simulation results are provided to validate the performance effectiveness of M2M communications in LTE-Advanced cellular networks.read more

Non-convex optimization and rate control for multi-class services in the Internet
TL;DR: This paper investigates the problem of distributively allocating transmission data rates to users in the Internet and shows that a pricing-based mechanism that solves the dual formulation can be developed based on the theory of subdifferentials with the property that the prices "self-regulate" the users to access the resources based onThe net utility.
Fundamental Design Issues for the Future Internet
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique which senses traffic in the network and sends the packets through the path which has the least traffic is proposed to prevent the path from getting further congested and reduce the packet collision.
