Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article we describe a demonstrator that shows how the cognitive resource manager (CRM) and the radio-environmental map (REM) can be efficiently implemented in full commercial grade cellular system (i.e., LTE system). The demonstrator shows how the modular CRM together with its open interface, the universal link-layer API (ULLA), facilitates the implementation of efficient radio resource management techniques guaranteeing the quality of service in the LTE system. The CRM, through ULLA, is able to obtain PHY/MAC status information of the link between the tested eNode B and the user equipment, and reconfigure link parameters. This measure-and-control by CRM/ULLA is independent of the underlying radio access technology, which shows the neutrality of CRM/ULLA towards PHY/MAC characteristics. The article also shows how the REM can be easily implemented in such system and how the REM provides the CRM with environmental information that enhances system management performance

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we describe an LTE based demonstrator of the Universal Link Layer API (ULLA) and Cognitive Resource Manager (CRM) modules that are developed in ARAGORN project. The demonstrated LTE system comprises one LTE TDD eNode B and one User Equipment (UE). We first introduce ULLA and CRM framework and then demonstrate their suitability to be implemented with the existing LTE equipments. We show how, through ULLA, CRM is able to obtain PHY/MAC status information of the link between the eNode B and UE, and in turn change system parameters to achieve better resource utilization and transmission efficiency. The control logic can be implemented with simple adaptation or policy-based intelligent methods. The platform clearly shows the feasibility to use ULLA/CRM architecture for radio resource management in a LTE network. It also shows the neutrality of ULLA/CRM mechanisms towards PHY/MAC characteristics of LTE technology platform; hence the platform is viable to flexibly switch between technology platforms (e.g. between LTE access and WiFi access) under the control of ULLA/CRM.
