The results indicate that without cross-traffic, the requirement of a delay of less than 10 ms for 99.9 % of the packets can be met for the remote control and fleet management of mobile robots.

Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is intended to enable deterministic communication over inexpensive Ethernet networks. Standardized by the IEEE TSN working group, TSN enables precise control of time synchronization, traffic shaping, reliability enhancements, and network administration to answer the demands of industrial control applications. Subsequently, there is a significant need to enable turnkey research and implementation efforts. However, a current lack of open-sourced testbed implementations to investigate and study the behavior of TSN network devices limits verification to simulation and theoretical models. We introduce a publicly available, flexible, and open-sourced measurement testbed for evaluating TSN in the context of industrial automation applications to address the need to perform real-world measurements. In this contribution, we describe our testbed combining Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) hardware and existing open-source tools as a platform for in-depth evaluation of TSN devices. Providing detailed TSN backgrounds, we describe an in-depth performance analysis for our implementation. For a common Tactile Internet scenario, we observe an accuracy of close to 5 ns achievable with our publicly available COTS setup.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

Moving content closer to the end user is already used in Content Delivery Networks (CDN). Mobile Edge Cloud (MEC) enables us to shift the content even closer by using the storage of end users. But, due to the large media files, storage and transport costs for peers increase significantly. Network Coding can reduce these costs. However, peers in CDNs tend to be highly fluctuating and often need to be restored, making continuous availability of data at the network edge a problem. While for uncoded data, individual packets lost due to peer failures can be tracked to determine availability, the availability of coded data is currently distinguished only in two cases: either there are still enough linearly independent packets to decode the file, or there are not. However, we have found that the network's combined coded cache loses quality over time due to recovery. This quality loss, which we refer to as grade, can be measured by very cost-effective monitoring. If the grade falls below a certain limit, we can intervene in the network by performing a cache refresh to prevent data becoming unavailable preemptively. In this paper, we present the cases in which such monitoring is useful, how the grade is calculated, and when a cache refresh is necessary. The results show that we can reduce network traffic by up to 34 % with minimal storage costs through efficient monitoring.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

In this work, we deliver insights into the functioning of 5G NR RAN Release 15, which includes actual one-way delay and Round-Trip Time (RTT) measurements for Downlink and Uplink in a private 5G Standalone campus network. The extensive measurement results reveal that these delays are correlated, and the corresponding RTT, i.e. the sum of Downlink and Uplink delays, is discreetly clustered, ranging between 12ms and 40ms. The measurements also show that the distribution of RTTs is mainly dependent on the packet rates and their inter-arrival times. Our study helps expand the current understanding of 5G used for latency-critical applications.

We offload intelligence of mobile robot control functionality, i.e., navigation, localization, and control to an EC. The EC processes sensor data and sends the robot the directional velocities. Meanwhile, a 5G wireless connection ensures the necessary low latencies and high throughputs. We demonstrate the feasibility of offloading SLAM and navigation in an EC based on a use case in automotive production.

Oftentimes, the timely provisioning of access to and the implementation of affordable care are drivers behind tele-healthcare initiatives. Tele-healthcare has already garnered significant momentum in research and implementations in the years preceding the worldwide challenge of 2020, supported by the emerging capabilities of communication networks. The Tactile Internet (TI) with human-in-the-loop is one of those developments, leading to the democratization of skills and expertise that will significantly impact the long-term developments of the provisioning of care. However, significant challenges remain that require today\’s communication networks to adapt to support the ultra-low latency required. The resulting latency challenge necessitates trans-disciplinary research efforts combining psychophysiological as well as technological solutions to achieve one millisecond and below round-trip times. The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the benefits enabled by solving this network latency reduction challenge by employing state-of-the-art Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) devices in a testbed, realizing the service differentiation required for the multi-modal human-machine interface.

It compensates for lost and corrupted packets by sending redundant coding packets. Despite the considerable attention RLNC received from the research community, the impact of the number of redundant coded packets on the network performance is poorly understood. An excessive number of redundancies would pollute the network with useless packets that give no additional information, and an insufficient number of redundancies would not provide enough packet loss resilience. We introduce a novel formal model for predicting the number of losses a system will have when RLNC is applied, by optimizing simulation results with the Newton-Raphson method. The model allows the sender to set the minimum amount of RLNC redundancies needed to keep the packet loss under a certain threshold. We validate our model against simulations by calculating the MSE between simulation results and our model.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }

While virtual network functions (VNFs) allow greater flexibility compared to hardware based solutions, the VNF abstraction also introduces additional packet processing delays. In this paper, we investigate the practical feasibility of NFV with respect to the tactile Internet latency requirements. We develop, implement, and evaluate Chain bAsed Low latency VNF ImplemeNtation (CALVIN), a low-latency management framework for distributed Service Function Chains (SFCs). CALVIN classifies VNFs into elementary, basic, and advanced VNFs. CALVIN implements elementary and basic VNFs in the kernel space, while advanced VNFs are implemented in the user space. Throughout, CALVIN employs a distributed mapping with one VNF per Virtual Machine (VM) in a MEC system. Moreover, CALVIN avoids the metadata structure processing and batch processing of packets in the conventional Linux networking stack so as to achieve short per-packet latencies. Our rigorous measurements on off-the-shelf conventional networking and computing hardware demonstrate that CALVIN achieves round-trip times from a MEC ingress point via an elementary forwarding VNF and a MEC server to a MEC egress point on the order of 0.32~ms. Our measurements also indicate that MEC network coding and encryption are feasible for small 256 byte packets with an MEC latency budget of .35~ms; whereas, large 1400 byte packets can complete the network coding, but not the encryption within the 0.35~ms.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {article} }

This allows intermediate and end devices, depending their computation power, to select either field to recode and decode coded packets. To ensure a high decoding probability, Fulcrum codes introduce (r) expansion packets at the outer coding stage, to increase the chance of producing linearly independent packets. However, the fixed number (r) hinder the chance of obtaining both high decoding probability and efficient transmission at a reduced computation complexity. We propose tunable expansion packet (TEP) protocols, which adjust the extra coefficients in the outer coding stage based on feedback from receivers. Comprehensive evaluations show that TEP protocols significantly increase goodput and reduce computation complexity while maintaining a low overhead.}, keywords = {}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {inproceedings} }
