Congestion Control in Wireless Software Defined Networks with Propagation Delay and External Interference: A Robust Control Approach

الملخص EN

Wireless Software Defined Network (WSDN) presents a new network architecture where the control plane of forwarding devices is shifted to a centralized controller.

It is critical to maximize network throughput and keep the network stable during congestion control.

However, stability control is insufficient to achieve these aims in the presence of delay and interference.

In this paper, we adopt robust control to tackle these problems.

Firstly, an efficient weighted scheduling scheme is proposed to maximize the network throughput.

Secondly, a robust control model is presented, which is analyzed by Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals.

The sufficient conditions are formulated by Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs).

Finally, a numerical simulation is conducted to indicate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
