© 2018 IEEE.The synergistic combination of Diversity and Network Coding (DC-NC) was previously introduced to provide very low end-to-end latency in recovering from a link failure and improve the throughput for a wide variety of network architectures. This paper is directed towards further improving DC-NC to be able to tolerate multiple, simultaneous link failures with less computational complexity. In this way, reliability will be maximized and the recovery time from multiple link or node failures is reduced in 5G fronthaul wireless networks. This is accomplished by modifying Triangular Network Coding (TNC) to create enhanced DC-NC (eDC-NC) that is applied to 5G wireless Fog computing-based Radio Access Networks (Fog-RAN). Our results show that using eDC-NC coding in Fog-RAN fronthaul network will provide ultra-reliability and enable near-instantaneous fault recovery while retaining the throughput improvement feature of DC-NC. In addition, the scalability of eDC-NC coding is demonstrated. Furthermore, it is shown that the redundancy percentage for complete protection is always less than 50% for the practical cases that were evaluated.

© 2018 IEEE.Very fast link failure recovery and high throughput can be achieved via the synergistic combination of Diversity and Network Coding (DC-NC), an open-loop coding technique, in a wide variety of network architectures. In this paper, DC-NC is applied to enable recovering from a wireless link/node failure in the fronthaul portion of downlink Coordinated Multi Point (CoMP) 5G wireless network in a C-RAN environment. Our results demonstrate that by utilizing DC-NC coding in CoMP systems, resource cons...
Diversity and Network Coded 5G Fronthaul Wireless Networks for Ultra Reliable and Low Latency Communications
Sulieman, Nabeel I.; Balevi, Eren; Davaslioglu, Kemal; Gitlin, Richard D. (2017-01-01)
This paper is directed towards improving both throughput and reliability of 5G wireless Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs) by the synergistic combination of Diversity Coding and Network Coding (DC-NC). In this paper, we directly apply the concept of DC-NC coding to two network scenarios: first, remote radio heads in a C-RAN connected to the baseband unit in two hierarchical tiers with optical and wireless fronthaul links, second, most remote radio heads are connected directly to the baseband unit via wire...
Placement of 5G RAN Slices in Multi-tier O-RAN 5G Networks with Flexible Functional Splits
Sarikaya, Egemen; Onur, Ertan (2021-01-01)
The network slicing concept has gained much attention with the development of software-defined network and network function virtualization technologies, enabling logically isolated networks for different purposes in the same network infrastructure. The virtualization of network functions enables the functional split of radio access network functions to fulfill different 5G radio access network requirements. Functional split can be expressed as deciding the distribution of radio access network functionalitie...
