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 functionalities between the radio unit placed at the edge of the network, the distributed unit placed close to the users, and the central unit placed centrally. The open radio access network concept is utilized to achieve a virtualized, interoperable radio access network among multiple vendors. In this work, we considered the placement of radio access network slices in a multi-tier 5G open radio access network architecture and formulated the problem as a Mixed-Integer Quadratically Constrained Programming, considering different functional split options for each network slice separately. Our results showed that flexible functional split utilizes physical network resources and satisfies different network slice requirements better than fixed functional split options.

Placement of 5G RAN slices in multi-tier open RAN 5G networks with flexible functional splits
Sarıkaya, Egemen; Onur, Ertan; Department of Computer Engineering (2021-9)
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 functional split of radio access network functions, which can fulfill different 5G radio access network requirements.

Network-wide energy efficiency in wireless networks with multiple access points
Ozel, Omur; Uysal, Elif (2013-10-01)
This paper presents a distributed mechanism for improving the overall energy efficiency of a wireless network where users can control their uplink transmit power targeted to the multiple access points in the network. This mechanism lets the network achieve a trade-off between energy efficiency and spectral efficiency through the use of suitably designed utility functions. A user's utility is a function of throughput and average transmission power. Throughput is assumed to be a sigmoidal function of signal-t...
Simulation and performance evaluation of a distributed real-time communication protocol for industrial embedded systems
Aybar, Güray; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
The Dynamic Distributed Dependable Real-Time Industrial communication Protocol (D3RIP) provides service guarantees for Real-Time traffic and integrates the dynamically changing requirements of automation applications in their operation to efficiently utilize the resources. The protocol dynamically allocates the network resources according to the respective system state. To this end, the protocol architecture consists of an Interface Layer that provides time-slotted operation and a Coordination Layer that as...
Machine learning algorithms for accurate flow-based network traffic classification: Evaluation and comparison
Soysal, Murat; Schmidt, Şenan Ece (Elsevier BV, 2010-06-01)
The task of network management and monitoring relies on an accurate characterization of network traffic generated by different applications and network protocols. We employ three supervised machine learning (ML) algorithms, Bayesian Networks, Decision Trees and Multilayer Perceptrons for the flow-based classification of six different types of Internet traffic including peer-to-peer (P2P) and content delivery (Akamai) traffic. The dependency of the traffic classification performance on the amount and composi...
Secure communication channel mechanisms for isolated networks
Karadağ, Gökdeniz; Özgit, Attila; Department of Computer Engineering (2009)
Current network security solutions are consisted of a single host, with network interfaces of the host connected to protected and external networks at the same time. This design ensures security by restricting traffic flow to a single point, where it can be examined and acted on by a set of rules. However, this design also has a flaw and a single point of failure, that being the vulnerabilities in the security device itself. An adversary would have unhindered access to protected networks if a vulnerability ...
