LTE-A D2D傳輸在動態頻率重用下之頻譜分配 / Spectrum allocation of LTE-A D2D transmissions using dynamic frequency reuse

許華元, Hsu, Hwa Yuan Unknown Date (has links)
LTE-A在靜態頻率重用的情形下,雖能有效減少干擾,但在UE (User Equipment)較為集中情形下,會有頻譜使用不足的情況。在傳統的傳輸模式中,若UE之間欲進行傳輸,通常需由傳輸端發送訊號給基地台,基地台再發送訊號給接收者,需要進行兩次的無線傳輸。若UE在彼此距離相近的環境中,D2D (Device-to-Device)傳輸可讓UE之間直接利用LTE-A頻譜進行傳輸,進而達到節省頻譜資源的效果。 本研究探討靜態頻率重用的缺點與位置相近的D2D傳輸模式,提出DFRDD (Dynamic Frequency Reuse for D2D transmission)方法,使用動態頻率重用與D2D傳輸技術。我們將一個細胞(cell)劃分為中央區域及外圍區域,外圍區域又劃分為三個扇形區,使用動態頻率重用的方法調整頻譜,在頻譜不足時,中央區域可使用外圍區域的頻譜,外圍區域最多可使用中央區域三分之一的頻譜。在使用D2D技術時,利用D2D UE與BS/RS (Base Station/Relay Station)的距離,計算出對基地台UE干擾較少的頻譜,進而提升傳輸效率。 實驗結果顯示,DFRDD利用動態頻率重用與D2D選擇頻譜的方法、在吞吐量方面表現得較H. S.Chae [18]、Bao [19]、Zhang [20]所提出的方法為佳。 / In the case of LTE-A static frequency reuse, although it can effectively reduce the interference, however, in the case of more dense UEs (User Equipment) environment, there will be problem of insufficient spectrum. In the traditional transmission method, if a pair of UEs want to communicate with each other, the transmitter sends a signal to the base station, the base station then sends a signal to the receiver, the signal need to to be wirelessly transmitted twice. If a pair of UEs are within a close distance, D2D (device-to-device) transmission allows users to communicate with each other directly using the same LTE-A spectrum to save spectrum resource. In order to improve LTE-A system performance, this paper proposes a DFRDD (Dynamic Frequency Reuse for D2D transmission) method. Using dynamic frequency reuse and D2D transmission, we divide a cell into center region and outer area, where the outer area is divided into three sectors. We use dynamic frequency reuse method to allocate spectrum. When the spectrum is insufficient, the center region can use the spectrum of the outer region. On the other hand, the outer area can use up to one third of the spectrum of the center region. When using D2D technic, we calculate the distance between D2D UE and the BS / RS (Base Station / Relay Station), choose the frequency that may reduce the interference of cellular UE and improve transmission efficiency. The experimental results show that DFRDD uses the method of dynamic frequency reuse and D2D to select the spectrum, which has better performance than those methods proposed by Chae [18], Bao [19] and Zhang [20].

Cooperation strategies for inter-cell interference mitigation in OFDMA systems / Les stratégies de coopération inter-cellules pour l'atténuation des interférences dans les systèmes OFDMA

Kurda, Reben 18 March 2015 (has links)
Récemment, l'utilisation des réseaux cellulaires a radicalement changé avec l’émergence de la quatrième génération (4G) de systèmes de télécommunications mobiles LTE/LTE-A (Long Term Evolution-Advanced). Les réseaux de générations précédentes (3G), initialement conçus pour le transport de la voix et les données à faible et moyen débits, ont du mal à faire face à l’augmentation accrue du trafic de données multimédia tout en répondant à leurs fortes exigences et contraintes en termes de qualité de service (QdS). Pour mieux répondre à ces besoins, les réseaux 4G ont introduit le paradigme des Réseaux Hétérogènes (HetNet).Les réseaux HetNet introduisent une nouvelle notion d’hétérogénéité pour les réseaux cellulaires en introduisant le concept des smalls cells (petites cellules) qui met en place des antennes à faible puissance d’émission. Ainsi, le réseau est composé de plusieurs couches (tiers) qui se chevauchent incluant la couverture traditionnelle macro-cellulaire, les pico-cellules, les femto-cellules, et les relais. Outre les améliorations des couvertures radio en environnements intérieurs, les smalls cells permettent d’augmenter la capacité du système par une meilleure utilisation du spectre et en rapprochant l’utilisateur de son point d’accès au réseau. Une des conséquences directes de cette densification cellulaire est l’interférence générée entre les différentes cellules des diverses couches quand ces dernières réutilisent les mêmes fréquences. Aussi, la définition de solutions efficaces de gestion des interférences dans ce type de systèmes constitue un de leurs défis majeurs. Cette thèse s’intéresse au problème de gestion des interférences dans les systèmes hétérogènes LTE-A. Notre objectif est d’apporter des solutions efficaces et originales au problème d’interférence dans ce contexte via des mécanismes d’ajustement de puissance des petites cellules. Nous avons pour cela distingués deux cas d’étude à savoir un déploiement à deux couches macro-femtocellules et macro-picocellules. Dans la première partie dédiée à un déploiement femtocellule et macrocellule, nous concevons une stratégie d'ajustement de puissance des femtocellules assisté par la macrocellule et qui prend en compte les performances des utilisateurs des femtocells tout en atténuant l'interférence causée aux utilisateurs des macrocellules sur leurs liens montants. Cette solution offre l’avantage de la prise en compte de paramètres contextuels locaux aux femtocellules (tels que le nombre d’utilisateurs en situation de outage) tout en considérant des scénarios de mobilité réalistes. Nous avons montré par simulation que les interférences sur les utilisateurs des macrocellules sont sensiblement réduites et que les femtocellules sont en mesure de dynamiquement ajuster leur puissance d'émission pour atteindre les objectifs fixés en termes d’équilibre entre performance des utilisateurs des macrocellules et celle de leurs propres utilisateurs. Dans la seconde partie de la thèse, nous considérons le déploiement de picocellules sous l'égide de la macrocellule. Nous nous sommes intéressés ici aux solutions d’extension de l’aire picocellulaire qui permettent une meilleure association utilisateur/cellule permettant de réduire l’interférence mais aussi offrir une meilleure efficacité spectrale. Nous proposons donc une approche basée sur un modèle de prédiction de la mobilité des utilisateurs qui permet de mieux ajuster la proportion de bande passante à partager entre la macrocellule et la picocellule en fonction de la durée de séjour estimée de ces utilisateurs ainsi que de leur demandes en bande passante. Notre solution a permis d’offrir un bon compromis entre les débits réalisables de la Macro et des picocellules. / Recently the use of modern cellular networks has drastically changed with the emerging Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) technology. Homogeneous networks which were initially designed for voice-centric and low data rates face unprecedented challenges for meeting the increasing traffic demands of high data-driven applications and their important quality of service requirements. Therefore, these networks are moving towards the so called Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets). HetNets represent a new paradigm for cellular networks as their nodes have different characteristics such as transmission power and radio frequency coverage area. Consequently, a HetNet shows completely different interference characteristics compared to homogeneous deployment and attention must be paid to these disparities when different tiers are collocated together. This is mostly due to the potential spectrum frequency reuse by the involved tiers in the HetNets. Hence, efficient inter-cell interference mitigation solutions in co-channel deployments of HetNets remain a challenge for both industry and academic researchers. This thesis focuses on LTE-A HetNet systems which are based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Access (OFDMA) modulation. Our aim is to investigate the aggressive interference issue that appears when different types of base stations are jointly deployed together and especially in two cases, namely Macro-Femtocells and Macro-Picocells co-existence. We propose new practical power adjustment solutions for managing inter-cell interference dynamically for both cases. In the first part dedicated to Femtocells and Macrocell coexistence, we design a MBS-assisted femtocell power adjustment strategy which takes into account femtocells users performance while mitigating the inter-cell interference on victim macrocell users. Further, we propose a new cooperative and context-aware interference mitigation method which is derived for realistic scenarios involving mobility of users and their varying locations. We proved numerically that the Femtocells are able to maintain their interference under a desirable threshold by adjusting their transmission power. Our strategies provide an efficient means for achieving the desired level of macrocell/femtocell throughput trade-off. In the second part of the studies where Picocells are deployed under the umbrella of the Macrocell, we paid a special attention and efforts to the interference management in the situation where Picocells are configured to set up a cell range expansion. We suggest a MBS-assisted collaborative scheme powered by an analytical model to predict the mobility of Macrocell users passing through the cell range expansion area of the picocell. Our goal is to adapt the muting ratio ruling the frequency resource partitioning between both tiers according to the mobility behavior of the range-expanded users, thereby providing an efficient trade-off between Macrocell and Picocell achievable throughputs.

Lightweight Security Solutions for LTE/LTE-A Networks / Solutions de Sécurité Légers pour les Réseaux LTE/LTE-A

Hussein, Soran 08 December 2014 (has links)
Récemment, le 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) a standardisé les systèmes LTE/LTE-A (Long Term Evolution/LTE-Advanced) qui ont été approuvés par l'UIT (Union Internationale des Télécommunications) comme des réseaux de télécommunications mobiles de 4éme génération. La sécurité est l'une des questions essentielles qui doivent être traitées avec soin pour protéger les informations de l'opérateur et des utilisateurs. Aussi, le 3GPP a normalisé plusieurs algorithmes et protocoles afin de sécuriser les communications entre les différentes entités du réseau. Cependant, l'augmentation du niveau de sécurité dans ces systèmes ne devrait pas leur imposer des contraintes lourdes telles qu’une grande complexité de calcul ou encore une forte consommation d'énergie. En effet, l'efficacité énergétique est devenue récemment un besoin critique pour les opérateurs afin de réduire l’empreinte écologique et les coûts opérationnels de ces systèmes. Les services de sécurité dans les réseaux mobiles tels que l'authentification, la confidentialité et l'intégrité des données sont le plus souvent effectués en utilisant des techniques cryptographiques. Toutefois, la plupart des solutions standardisées déjà adoptées par le 3GPP dépendent des algorithmes de chiffrement qui possèdent une grande complexité, induisant une consommation énergétique plus élevée dans les différentes entités communicantes du réseau. La confidentialité des données, qui se réfère principalement au fait de s'assurer que l'information n'est accessible qu'à ceux dont l'accès est autorisé, est réalisée au niveau de la sous-couche PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) de la pile protocolaire de LTE/LTE-A par l'un des trois algorithmes normalisés (EEA1, EEA2 et EEA3). Or, chacun des trois algorithmes exige une forte complexité de calcul car ils reposent sur la théorie de chiffrement de Shannon qui utilise les fonctions de confusion et de diffusion sur plusieurs itérations. Dans cette thèse, nous proposons un nouvel algorithme de confidentialité en utilisant le concept de substitution et de diffusion dans lequel le niveau de sécurité requis est atteint en un seul tour. Par conséquent, la complexité de calcul est considérablement réduite ce qui entraîne une réduction de la consommation d'énergie par les fonctions de chiffrement et de déchiffrement. De plus, la même approche est utilisée pour réduire la complexité des algorithmes 3GPP d'intégrité des données (EIA1, EIA2 et EIA3) dont le concept de chiffrement repose sur les mêmes fonctions complexes. Enfin, nous étudions dans cette thèse le problème d'authentification dans le contexte du paradigme D2D (Device to Device communications) introduit dans les systèmes 4G. Le concept D2D se réfère à la communication directe entre deux terminaux mobiles sans passer par le cœur du réseau. Il constitue un moyen prometteur pour améliorer les performances et réduire la consommation d'énergie dans les réseaux LTE/LTE-A. Toutefois, l'authentification et la dérivation de clé entre deux terminaux mobiles dans le contexte D2D n’ont pas fait l’objet d’études. Aussi, nous proposons un nouveau protocole léger d’authentification et de dérivation de clé permettant d’authentifier les terminaux D2D et de dériver les clés nécessaires à la fois pour le cryptage et pour la protection de l'intégrité des données. / Recently, the 3rd Group Project Partnership (3GPP) has developed Long Term Evolution/ Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE/LTE-A) systems which have been approved by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) as 4th Generation (4G) mobile telecommunication networks. Security is one of critical issues which should be handled carefully to protect user's and mobile operator's information. Thus, the 3GPP has standardized algorithms and protocols in order to secure the communications between different entities of the mobile network. However, increasing the security level in such networks should not compel heavy constrains on these networks such as complexity and energy. Indeed, energy efficiency has become recently a critical need for mobile network operators for reduced carbon emissions and operational costs. The security services in mobile networks such as authentication, data confidentiality and data integrity are mostly performed using cryptographic techniques.However, most of the standardized solutions already adopted by the3GPP depend on encryption algorithms which possess high computational complexity which in turn contributes in consuming further energy at the different network communication parties.Data confidentiality which mainly refers to the protection of the user’s information privacy is achieved at the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) sub-layer in the LTE/LTE-A protocol stack by one of the three standardized algorithms (EEA1, EEA2 and EEA3). However, each of the three algorithms requires high computational complexity since they rely on Shannon’s theory of encryption algorithms by applying confusion and diffusion for several rounds. In our thesis we propose a novel confidentiality algorithm using the concept of substitution and diffusion in which the required security level is attained in only one round. Consequently the computational complexity is considerably reduced which in return results in reducing the energy consumption during both encryption and decryption procedures. Similarly, the same approach is used to reduce the complexity of 3GPP data integrity algorithms (EIA1, EIA2 and EIA3) which the core cipher rely on the same complex functions. Finally, we investigate in this thesis the authentication issue in Device to Device paradigms proposal in 4G systems. Device to Device communications refer to direct communications between two mobile devices without passing through the core network. They constitute a promising mean to increase the performance and reduce energy consumptions in LTE/LTE-A networks. In such context, the authentication and key derivation between two mobile devices have not been well investigated. Thus, a novel lightweight authentication and key derivation protocol is proposed to authenticate two communicating devices during session establishments as well as deriving necessary keys for both data encryption and integrity protection.

Análise de desempenho do protocolo TCP em Redes LTE. / Performance evaluation of TCP protocol in LTE Networks.

Carlos Alberto Leite Bello Filho 26 February 2014 (has links)
O crescimento dos serviços de banda-larga em redes de comunicações móveis tem provocado uma demanda por dados cada vez mais rápidos e de qualidade. A tecnologia de redes móveis chamada LTE (Long Term Evolution) ou quarta geração (4G) surgiu com o objetivo de atender esta demanda por acesso sem fio a serviços, como acesso à Internet, jogos online, VoIP e vídeo conferência. O LTE faz parte das especificações do 3GPP releases 8 e 9, operando numa rede totalmente IP, provendo taxas de transmissão superiores a 100 Mbps (DL), 50 Mbps (UL), baixa latência (10 ms) e compatibilidade com as versões anteriores de redes móveis, 2G (GSM/EDGE) e 3G (UMTS/HSPA). O protocolo TCP desenvolvido para operar em redes cabeadas, apresenta baixo desempenho sobre canais sem fio, como redes móveis celulares, devido principalmente às características de desvanecimento seletivo, sombreamento e às altas taxas de erros provenientes da interface aérea. Como todas as perdas são interpretadas como causadas por congestionamento, o desempenho do protocolo é ruim. O objetivo desta dissertação é avaliar o desempenho de vários tipos de protocolo TCP através de simulações, sob a influência de interferência nos canais entre o terminal móvel (UE User Equipment) e um servidor remoto. Para isto utilizou-se o software NS3 (Network Simulator versão 3) e os protocolos TCP Westwood Plus, New Reno, Reno e Tahoe. Os resultados obtidos nos testes mostram que o protocolo TCP Westwood Plus possui um desempenho melhor que os outros. Os protocolos TCP New Reno e Reno tiveram desempenho muito semelhante devido ao modelo de interferência utilizada ter uma distribuição uniforme e, com isso, a possibilidade de perdas de bits consecutivos é baixa em uma mesma janela de transmissão. O TCP Tahoe, como era de se esperar, apresentou o pior desempenho dentre todos, pois o mesmo não possui o mecanismo de fast recovery e sua janela de congestionamento volta sempre para um segmento após o timeout. Observou-se ainda que o atraso tem grande importância no desempenho dos protocolos TCP, mas até do que a largura de banda dos links de acesso e de backbone, uma vez que, no cenário testado, o gargalo estava presente na interface aérea. As simulações com erros na interface aérea, introduzido com o script de fading (desvanecimento) do NS3, mostraram que o modo RLC AM (com reconhecimento) tem um desempenho melhor para aplicações de transferência de arquivos em ambientes ruidosos do que o modo RLC UM sem reconhecimento. / The growth of broadband services in mobile networks has led to a demand for data with faster and better quality transmissions. The mobile network technology called LTE (Long Term Evolution) or fourth generation (4G) came up with the objective of attending this demand for wireless access to services such as Internet access, online games, VoIP and video conferencing. LTE is part of the specifications of 3GPP Releases 8 and 9 operating in all-IP networks and providing transmission rates above 100 Mbps (DL), 50 Mbps (UL), low latency (10 ms) and compatibility with previous versions of mobile networks, 2G (GSM / EDGE) and 3G (UMTS / HSPA). The TCP protocol designed to operate in wired networks presents poor performance over wireless channels such as mobile cellular networks, due mainly to the characteristics of selective fading, shadowing and high error rates coming from the air interface. As all losses are interpreted as caused by congestion the protocol performance is bad. The objective of this dissertation is to evaluate the performance of several types of the TCP protocols through simulations, under the influence of channel interference between the mobile terminal (UE - User Equipment) and a remote server. For this, the NS3 (Network Simulator version 3) software and the protocols TCP Westwood Plus, New Reno, Reno and Tahoe were used. Results have shown that the TCP Westwood Plus protocol has a better performance than others. The New Reno and Reno TCP protocols had similar performance due to the proposed interference model, which has a uniform distribution and so the possibility of loss of consecutive bits is low on the same transmission window. TCP Tahoe, as expected has shown the worst performance among all because it does not have the fast recovery mechanism and its congestion window keeps coming back to one segment after a timeout. It was also observed that the delay has a greater importance in the performance of TCP when comparing with the bandwidth of the access and backbone links importance, once in the tested scenario the bottleneck was present in the air interface. The simulation performed with noise in the Air Interface, introduced by the NS3 fading script, showed that the RLC AM (acknowledged mode) had a better performance than the RLM UM (Unacknowledged mode).

Several papers discussed the benefits of deploying a new network infrastructure with such technologies, but only a few investigated how the transition from a legacy network could be. In this context, there is a relevant problem that involves three main issues: 1) which network locations should be updated; 2) how to update the selected location, \ie, to fully virtualized or not; and 3) who should attend virtualized sites. These issues are influenced by the level of centralization employed in a given access network (RAN). Here we propose two optimization models and two heuristics that allow the decision maker to define the desired level of centralization and to evaluate its impact on some metrics such as the investment needed and the level of centralization actually achieved. The models show how the investment should be applied according to the level of centralization and the relative cost between the different resources. Our heuristics present similar performance to the exact approach for relatively small scenarios of the problem, but are able to solve topologies of networks with large number of vertices and maintain a satisfactory solution close to the ideal. / Existem grandes expectativas nas tecnologias de centralização (CRAN) e de virtualização de rede (NFV), e especialmente diante do potencial que têm de acelerar a implantação de novos serviços e, ao mesmo tempo, diminuir os custos das operadoras de redes. Vários trabalhos discutiram os benefícios de se implantar uma nova infraestrutura de rede, com tais tecnologias, mas apenas alguns investigaram como poderia ser a transição a partir de uma rede legada. Nesse contexto, existe um problema relevante que envolve três questões principais: 1) quais locais da rede devem ser atualizados; 2) como atualizar o local selecionado, \ie, para totalmente virtualizado ou não; e 3) quem deve atender aos locais virtualizados. Essas questões são influenciadas pelo nível de centralização empregado em uma determinada rede de acesso (RAN). Aqui, propomos dois modelos de otimização e duas heurísticas que permitem ao tomador de decisão definir o nível de centralização desejado e avaliar seu impacto em algumas métricas, tais como o investimento necessário e o nível de centralização efetivamente alcançado. Os modelos mostram como o investimento deve ser aplicado de acordo com o nível de centralização e o custo relativo entre os diferentes recursos. Nossas heurísticas apresentam desempenho semelhante à abordagem exata para cenários relativamente pequenos do problema, mas são capazes de resolver topologias de redes com grande número de vértices e manter uma solução satisfatória próxima ao ideal.

Gestion de ressources bout-en-bout et contrôle de la qualité de service en mobilité dans les réseaux LTE/LTE-Advanced / End-to-end resource management and service quality control with mobility in LTE / LTE-Advanced networks

L'évolution technologique de RAN dans le contexte de la 5G n'est pas seulement guidée par l'amélioration de la qualité de service du réseau mais aussi par la nécessité de transformer toutes les technologies par des systèmes dynamiques intelligents. La nouvelle technologie de la 5G est plus que flexible et pourra satisfaire chaque utilisateur de façon équitable sans que son type (mobile ou statique) ou sa demande de service (service temps réel et non réel) n'affecte. Tous les cas d'utilisation seront intelligemment dimensionnés et gérés dans le réseau. L'objectif principal de cette thèse est d'analyser et d'améliorer les performances radio en tenant compte de la mobilité des véhicules en gérant dynamiquement et intelligemment les ressources disponibles. A cette fin, nous présentons différents modèles de mobilité des utilisateurs dans le cas discret et continu. Le modèle discret utilisant le modèle bien connu du car following est bien adapté pour les simulations. La méthode continue est utile pour obtenir des indicateurs analytiques de performance clés (KPI). La nouveauté de cette partie de la thèse est la formulation analytique de KPIs qui tiennent compte de la mobilité physique dans le trafic radio. A titre d'exemple, l'impact d'un feu rouge sur les indicateurs de performance dans une cellule est étudié. Il est montré qu'une congestion physique périodique du trafic due au feu de circulation détériore périodiquement la performance de la cellule. La première solution considérée consiste à améliorer l'allocation et le contrôle des ressources dans le contexte du réseau hétérogène LTE-Advanced. Une small cell est ensuite déployée à proximité du feu rouge pour diminuer la congestion périodique et la dégradation de la qualité de service. Trois systèmes d'allocation et de contrôle des ressources sont étudiés: une réutilisation de fréquence complète, un algorithme de division de fréquence statique et dynamique qui sont optimisés par rapport à une utilité alpha -fair basé sur les débits reçus. En outre, il est montré que le système de commande dynamique est particulièrement intéressant pour le trafic non stationnaire comme celui introduit par un feu de circulation périodique. Par souci de réduction des coûts financiers et énergétiques, et de suivi d'utilisateurs mobiles, une autre solution est fournie en utilisant un nouveau réseau d'antennes afin de gérer efficacement le trafic hétérogène, fixe et mobile. On considère trois technologies différentes de réseau d'antennes permettant de décharger les zones de congestion ainsi que la congestion mobile dynamique: Virtual Small Cell (VSC), petite cellule virtuelle avec réseau auto-organisateur (VSC-SON) et rayons focalisant avec un multiniveau global codebook qui gère le système d'antenne hétérogène à la station de base. Les deux premières technologies améliorent la performance de la cellule en raison de leur capacité de focaliser le signal à la concentration du trafic au niveau de la congestion physique. La nouvelle solution de faisceaux focalisants avec le global codebook améliore de manière significative les performances en raison de la capacité de focaliser le signal le long de la route et d'équilibrer implicitement le trafic entre les différentes antennes. Nous comparons toutes ces technologies et leur impact sur les performances du réseau. La question de la sélection d'un utilisateur pour lui allouer une partie (en temps ou en bande passante) de la ressource disponible est étudiée. Le contexte de la gestion des ressources et de la performance du réseau dans la mobilité est un des défis futurs pour la 5G. Grâce à la technologie MDT, les réseaux peuvent avoir une idée, ou plus précisément une moyenne du SINR grâce à la GLM. Nous introduisons le concept de Forecast Scheduling pour les utilisateurs en mobilité à vitesse élevée. On suppose que la REM peut fournir des valeurs interpolées du SINR le long des trajectoires des utilisateurs. / The technology evolution of Radio Access Network (RAN) in the context of 5th Generation (5G) is not only guided by improving the network performance but also by the need to transform all the technologies into intelligent dynamic ones. The new 5G is a flexible technology that will be able to satisfy at the same time each user of any type of mobility (static or mobile) or service request (real and non-real time service) without modifying any models or algorithms in networks. All physical use cases will be able to be considered by the network intelligently and resource managed automatically. The objective of this thesis is to analyse and enhance radio performance taking into account vehicular mobility by managing dynamically and intelligently the available resources. To this end, we describe different users mobility models for discrete and continuous modeling. The discrete model using the well-known car following model is well adapted for simulations. The continuous one is useful to derive analytical key performance indicators (KPI). The novelty of the thesis is the analytical formulation of KPIs that take into account the physical mobility in the radio traffic which is not necessary stationary. As an example, the impact of a traffic light on performance indicators in a cell is investigated. It is shown that a periodical physical traffic congestion due to the traffic light deteriorate periodically the cell performance. A first given solution is to improve resource allocation and control in the context of LTE-Advanced heterogeneous network. A small cell is deployed near the traffic light to relieve periodic congestion and QoS degradation. Three resource allocation and control schemes are investigated: a full frequency reuse, a static and a dynamic frequency splitting algorithm that are optimized with respect to a throughput based alpha-fair utility. For sake of financial and energy costs decreasing, another solution is provided using new antenna array technologies in order to manage efficiently heterogeneous, fixed and mobile traffic. A heterogeneous antenna system with different large antenna array technologies is considered to ooad static congestion areas and also the dynamical mobile congestion: Virtual Small Cell (VSC), virtual small cell with Self-Organizing Network (VSC-SON) and beamforming with multilevel global codebook that manages the heterogeneous antenna system at the Base Station (BS). The first two technologies improve the cell performance due to the capability to focus the signal at the traffic concentration. The novel beamforming solution with global codebook can further and significantly improve performance due to the capability to focus the signal along the road and to implicitly balance the traffic between the different antennas. We compare all these technologies and their impact on the network performance. The issue of user selection to allocate a portion (in time or in bandwidth) of the available resource is also analyzed. Moreover the context of resource management and network performance for 5G in high mobility is one of the future challenges. Thanks to the Minimization of Drive Testing (MDT) technology, networks can have Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) information with Geo-Localized Measurements (GLM).We introduce the concept of Forecast Scheduler for users in high mobility. It is assumed that a Radio Environment Map (REM) can provide interpolated SINR values along the user trajectories. Mobile users experience in their trajectories different mean SINR values. In mobile networks, schedulers exploit channel quality variation by giving the signal to the user experiencing best channel conditions while remaining fair. Nevertheless, we cannot record data rates of users with high mobility due to a very small time coherence. The Forecast Scheduling will exploit the SINR variation during users' trajectories.
