Radio Agents Technologies for Wireless-as-a-service Network

摘要

Mobile users will be able to utilize a large variety of application services from cloud network, and also one of various types of wireless service should be provided from cloud according to users' preference or their location. The latter is able to be realized by use of Wireless service over IP technology, and its concept is called "Wireless as a Service (WlaaS)", or "Wireless Cloud". Radio Agents technologies in the WlaaS networks have been proposed to achieve a good balance between users demands in charge, QoE, or so on, operators' demands in penetrations, investments, or so on, and regulation demands for radio regulations and frequency efficiency. Radio agents will decide the assignment of frequency or network resources, or the selection of service content to user on the basis of these utility functions. This paper will classify radio agents in terms of time and objective scale, and propose user utility function, that is derived by AHP (analytic hierarchy process) method and also agent system operating based on the utility function.
