Singular Spectrum Analysis of Traffic Workload in a Large-Scale Wireless LAN

Tags:
local area networks (lan)

Overview Network traffic load in an IEEE802.11 infrastructure arises from the superposition of traffic accessed by wireless clients associated with Access Points (APs). An accurate characterization of these data can be beneficial in modelling network traffic and addressing a variety of problems including cover-age planning, resource reservation and network monitoring for anomaly detection. This study focuses on the statistical analysis of the traffic load measured in a campus-wide IEEE802.11 infrastructure at each AP. Using the Singular Spectrum Analysis approach, one found that the time-series of traffic load at a given AP has a small intrinsic dimension. In particular, these time-series can be accurately modelled using a small number of leading (principal) components.

Council fixed-mobile trial rings the changes

To keep the wi-fi element of the service on track the council has installed extra wi-fi access points in a corridor connecting two sites to prevent dropped calls as users walk from one area of the campus to another.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
