Abstract

Mobile communication systems should be able to support multimedia traffics with limited transmit power due to the frequency reuse for maximizing the channel accommodation. Real-time data is very sensitive to delay, and they need to be transmitted instantly. On the other hand, non-real time data is less sensitive to delay, and their packet loss can be handled more flexibly. Therefore an adaptive resource management scheme is essentially required which enables to keep the minimal power allocated in the base station while guaranteeing the user requirements for QoE within a permissible range. Power-saving techniques are required in order to support multimedia services in the mobile networks because the power consumption increases greatly with the transmission rate increase. This paper proposes a novel scheme which enables to keep the allocated power minimal while guaranteeing the user requirements for QoE within a permissible range.

이동통신망에서는 채널 사용을 극대화하기 위하여 제한된 송신 전력으로 멀티미디어 트래픽을 지원해야 한다. 실시간 전송 기반의 데이터들은 지연에 민감하므로 이를 고려해야 하고, 비실시간성 데이터는 비교적 지연에 둔감하므로 패킷 손실에 유연하게 대처할 수 있다. 따라서 제한된 송신 전력으로 멀티미디어 트래픽을 지원하여야 하므로 하향 링크 전력을 최소로 유지하면서 QoE 제약 조건을 충족시키는 방안이 필요하다. 전송률의 증가에 따라 소비되는 전력이 크게 증대되므로 다양한 이동 멀티미디어 서비스를 지원하기 위해서는 에너지 소비 절감 기술이 요구된다. 또한 인터넷 기반의 멀티미디어 서비스는 자원 요구량, QoE 요건이 상이하므로 적응적인 전력 관리가 필수적이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 QoE을 일정 수준으로 충족시키면서 전력 소모를 최소화하기 위한 방안을 제안한다.
