Machine Learning Based Analysis of Cellular Spectrum

By Muhammad Yasir Zafi Sherhan Shah Sajjad Ali Memon Zahid Ali

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijwmt.2021.02.03, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2021

One of the key issues of wireless communication networks is the spectrum crisis, and studies noted that static licensed bands are in the under-utilization stage. Recently Cognitive Radio Network facilitates a solution to minimize the spectrum crisis in which unlicensed users can utilize the licensed spectrum without transmission interference. To achieve this task we used Machine Learning techniques for analyzing spectrum occupancy which is an efficient method to analyze spectrum occupancy and provides high accuracy. Supervised machine learning algorithms namely Logistic regression, K nearest neighbor, and Naive Bayes are used to classify a given frequency band. In this paper we collect spectrum samples of GSM 900, 1800, and 2100 bands using Rohde & Schwarz FSH6 Handheld Spectrum Analyzer for developing a dataset, using that dataset we trained the classifiers and analyze their classification performance accuracy. Results have shown the best performance on the validation and testing partition for various Unweighted Average Recall (UAR) of each classifier. Here the Logistic Regression classifier learns the best representation from their feature vector. This research is helpful to measure the spectrum occupancy of different static allocated licensed bands for 24/7. This will give better ideas about spectrum utilization, future spectrum allocation and comfort to serve more users in the limited spectrum. The occupancy measurements of current allocated spectrums can not only provide a convincing basis for making future spectrum allocation policies, but also provide technical support for the development of new communication technologies.

Design of Microwave Pyramidal Absorber for Semi Anechoic Chamber in 1 GHz~20 GHz range

By Zahid Ali Badar Muneer Bhawani Shankar Chowdhry Shehroz Jehangir Ghulam Hyder

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijwmt.2020.02.03, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2020

In this paper, the design and development of wideband microwave pyramidal absorbers for semi anechoic chambers has been presented. This work is carried out with the goal of simulating and fabricating the microwave absorber using conventional and newest material such as polyurethane to save the budget cost with security and reliability. The simulation of absorber is performed via Computer Simulation Technology (CST) for the microwave frequencies 1 GHz to 20 GHz. The outcomes of simulation proved good absorbing efficiency and better RCS reduction compared to traditional microwave absorber. The reflection level is less than -30 to -10 dB over the desired frequency range of 1 GHz ~ 20 GHz.

Analysis of VoIP over Wired & Wireless Network with Implementation of QoS CBWFQ & 802.11e

By Zahid Ali Falak Naz Javed Muhammad Qurban Muhammad Yasir Shehroz Jehangir

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijcnis.2020.01.05, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2020

In this paper, we analyzed VoIP data rates to minimize the bandwidth efficiently as per user demand and reduced the budget cost before implementing VoIP service at any wired and wireless network. To accomplish these results different clock rates were used to assign bandwidth administratively, CODEC schemes (G.711 and G.729) to minimized data rates and QoS (Quality of Service) such as CBWFQ and 802.11e to sustain the voice quality in congestion over the wired and wireless networks. PRTG Grapher and LAN Traffic Generator software were used to monitor a bandwidth and create congestion artificially between the link of communicating two setup LANs wired and wireless.
