Abstract:
A method to generate a wireless waveform for use in a wireless communication system, a wireless communication system and computer program product thereofThe method comprises the generation of a waveform for application in the wireless communication system characterized by significant phase noise, Doppler spread, multipath, frequency instability, and/or low power efficiency by at the transmitter side: creating a discrete-time instantaneous frequency signal {tilde over (f)}[n]; appending a cyclic prefix with length LCP to the beginning of the discrete-time instantaneous frequency signal {tilde over (f)}[n]; constructing a discrete-time unwrapped instantaneous phase φ[n]; constructing a discrete-time complex baseband signal, and appending at the beginning a Constant Amplitude Zero Autocorrelation, CAZAC, signal of length LCP for multipath detection; and passing the constructed discrete-time complex baseband signal through a digital-to-analog, DAC, converter to yield the continuous-time radio frequency signal s(t) after conversion to the carrier frequency.
Abstract:
A distributed health-check method for web caching in a telecommunication network, wherein a plurality of web caching nodes are coordinated to monitor a set of origin servers where web content is generated. The method includes associating to each user of the telecommunication network requesting the web content buckets as logical containers for holding the web content requested; generating a list of users of the telecommunication network requesting the web content; and performing the plurality of web caching nodes a number of health-checks to the set of origin servers to download the requested web content. A filtering of the set of origin servers is performed for grouping in different areas of interest and the number of health-checks are performed by a limited number of caching nodes receiving the web content requests. The limited number of caching nodes selected belonging to a specific area of interest of the set of origin servers monitoring them.
