In this thesis, we focus on mobile networks consist of a single base station as the source transceiver, and multiple mobile stations as the receiving party. Applying energy management on multicasting between the base station and mobile stations, network users can conserve the energy consumed while wating for subscribing data contents to come. We referenced the SMBC-D (Scheduling over Multiple Broadcast Channels--the dynamic model) algorithm proposed by R. Cohen et al., grouping users with high request similarity, partitioning channels with a time-division duplexing scheme, and putting mobile stations into sleep mode during channels that include no subscribing data contents. Since SMBC-D statically schedules fixed size channels, groups request fewer data items will idle their channels after finishing their transmision, while groups request more data items take longer time to finish their transmission. For such problem, we propose a heuristic algorithm that makes use of these idle channels by combining adequate consecutive idle channels, to improve channel utility, and lower the overall energy consumed. We also process relevant computer simulations, verifying that our method has better performance.

När olika datatyper överförs mellan två platser har, historiskt sett, detta skett på skildinfrastruktur; analoga signaler för sig, och digitala data för sig. Inom flygindustrin hanteras båda dessa datatyper än idag, då övergång från analoga röstsamtal till digitala röstsamtal tar tid. För att förenkla infrastrukturen är det önskvärt att skicka all data på samma medium. Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) möjliggör detta och har studerats med fokus på robusthet och prestanda. Studien har fokuserat på hur TDM-enheter ska konfigureras med avseende på Ethernet-frame-storlek för att till fullo utnyttja länkkapaciteten. Teoretiska resonemang har validerats av experimentella data som utförts på TDM-enheter sammankopplade med en fiberlänk. Antalet förlorade frames för systemet har mätts med varierande datatillförselshastighet. Detta upprepades för ett flertal Ethernet-frame-storlekar. Mindre frame-storlekar gav en högre möjlig överföringshastighet innan data förloras, och uppvisade koherens mellan teori och experiment. Stora frame-storlekar fyllde i snitt TDM-tidsluckorna sämre, och gjorde att databuffert på enheten fylldes snabbare än för mindre framstorlekar. Detta ledde till dataförluster i systemet. Andra faktorer, som overhead och payload, gjorde att framestorleken borde väljas efter applikation. Mindre datamängder som skickas ofta kan med fördel använda mindre frame-storlekar, medan stora datamängder som behöveröverföras snabbt effektivare överförs med större frame-storlekar. / When transferring different data types between two sites, they have historically been transferred on separate infrastructures; analog signals separately, and digital data separately. Within the aviation industry, both these data types are still handled today, as transition from analog voice data to digital voice data takes time. To simplify the infrastructure, it is desirable to send all data on the same medium. Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) makes this possible and has been studied with focus on robustness and performance. The study has focused on how TDM devices should be configured with respect to Ethernet frame size to fully utilize link capacity. Theoretical reasoning has been validated by experimental data performed on TDM devices coupled with a fiber link. The number of lost frames for the system has been measured while varying data rates. This was repeated for several Ethernet frame sizes. Smaller frame sizes showed a higher possible transfer rate before data loss was recorded. This shows coherence between theory and experiments. Larger frame sizes were less good at filling the TDM time slots, causing data buffer on the device to overflow faster than for smaller frame sizes. This created data loss in the system. Other factors, such as overhead and payload, implies that the frame size should be chosen by application. Smaller data volumes that are sent frequently have an advantage when using smaller frame sizes, while when handling largeramounts of data that need to be transmitted quickly, it is more efficient to use larger frame sizes

<p> An optical time division multiplexing (TDM) scheme using soliton interaction is proposed in the thesis to save the time-bandwidth prduct (TBP). The soliton multiplexer (MUX) consisting of a highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF) combines two adjacent solitons to form a composite soliton, while the soliton demultiplexer (DEMUX) consisting of a similar HNLF restores the component solitons. The case of interaction between identical fundamental solitons is discussed first. However, when this scheme is used in the conventional TDM system, the total bit rate transmitted over the channel is limited by the time interval between the two adjacent component solitons. Therefore, a modified multiplexing scheme using interaction between different solitons is proposed to satisfy more practical engineering applications. The theoretical analysis and numerical simulation results demonstrate that the modified optical TDM scheme offers a higher TBP efficiency and suitable for conventional TDM, which makes it an attractive candidate for meeting the challenge of increasing demand on frequency bandwidth in modern optical communications. </p> / Thesis / Master of Applied Science (MASc)

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 23-26, 2000 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / An advanced electro-optic hybrid rotary joint (EOHRJ) has been developed in Phase II of an AF SBIR effort with Physical Optics Corporation (POC) to replace cable wrap structure for multi-channel rotation-to-fixed (RTF) signal transmission. The EOHRJ meets AFFTC and other range special needs with a generic, high performance, rotary joint solution. At the moment, we have successfully installed and tested the EOHRJ on our KTM tracker system with the following capabilities: 1) able to accommodate hundreds of transmission channels, including electrical power, control, feedback, and low-speed signals; 2) able to accommodate multiple channel, high data rate (over gigabits per second), and bi-directional signal transmission; 3) able to be reliable for harsh environmental operation, adaptive to stringent sized requirement, and accommodating existing electrical and mechanical interfaces. The completed EOHRJ contains three uniquely integrated functional rings. The first and the outmost one is power ring, which provides RTF transmission channels for over 50 high voltage and high current channels. The second and the middle one is low speed electrical signal ring, which provides RTF transmission for over hundred control, feedback, and low speed data signals. The third and the inmost one is optical fiber slip ring, which, incorporating with current advanced signal multiplexing technologies (either time division or wavelength division multiplexing ) is able to provide multiple channel, high data rate, and bi-directional signal transmission. At the moment, the prototype module of the tree-layer EOHRJ has been successfully assembled in Air Force’s tracker system, and is providing a satisfactory performance. This paper presents our joint work on this project.
