Tracking in WiMAX networks is gaining a lot of interest; especially after the mobile WiMAX became one of the emerging technologies that promote low-cost deployment and evolving to provide IP-based services of high mobility including providing location-based services (LBS). Therefore, locating users in a cheap way that depend on the available network resources is becoming more and more interesting and an active topic for researchers. In this paper we consider the problem of tracking in WiMAX networks depending on SCORE observations. The provided examples show that with efficient measurement data processing and with the help of already available data (street maps), plausible results can be achieved.

Age-aware scheduling in communication networks
Beytur, Hasan Burhan; Uysal, Elif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020-10-30)
In next-generation communication networks, various types of data traffic with different requirements will coexist. This type of coexistence requires new techniques based on new metrics to distinguish the various types of data traffic based on their value. The emerging metric Age of Information (AoI) quantifying the timeliness of the communication flow is a promising metric to prepare future networks for new technologies such as the Internet of Things and Autonomous Driving. In this thesis, we studied s...
Modelling and analysis of vertical handover in highly mobile environments

Various types of wireless networks have been developed and deployed including 3G, WLAN, WiMAX, LTE and LTE Advanced. User connectivity and network performance can be improved using vertical handover techniques which involve switching between available networks in heterogeneous environments. In this respect, recently there has been an increased interest in the integration of cellular and WLAN systems. In this study, the integrated heterogeneous wireless systems are modelled using two-stage open queuing syste...
Scheduling Policies for Minimizing Age of Information in Broadcast Wireless Networks
Kadota, Igor; Sinha, Abhishek; Uysal, Elif; Singh, Rahul; Modiano, Eytan (2018-12-01)
In this paper, we consider a wireless broadcast network with a base station sending time-sensitive information to a number of clients through unreliable channels. The Age of Information (AoI), namely the amount of time that elapsed since the most recently delivered packet was generated, captures the freshness of the information. We formulate a discrete-time decision problem to find a transmission scheduling policy that minimizes the expected weighted sum AoI of the clients in the network. We first show that...
Scheduling algorithms for wireless cdma networks
Hakyemez, Serkan Ender; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
In recent years the need for multimedia packet data services in wireless networks has grown rapidly. To overcome that need third generation (3G) mobile services have been proposed. The fast growing demands multimedia services in 3G services brought the need for higher capacity. As a result of this, the improvement on throughput, traffic serving performance has become necessary in 3G systems. Code division multiple access (CDMA) technique is one of the most important 3G wireless mobile techniques that has be...
Tracking in WiMAX Networks Using Cell-IDs
Bshara, Mussa; Orguner, Umut; Van Biesen, Leo (2009-07-10)
There is some skepticism regarding the practical implementation of a tracking system that depends on cell identification (Cell-ID) information. This pessimism is due to the fact that tracking systems are known to require high positioning accuracy, while Cell-ID positioning is known as being "low accuracy" positing technique. However, using the Cell-IDs in a different way (a novel approach) than in current positioning will allow the implementation of a tracking system capable of providing sufficient position...
