Popis
Shrnutí:Optical wireless communication is a promising technology for underwater broadband access networks, which are particularly important for high-resolution environmental monitoring applications. This paper focuses on a deep-sea monitoring system, where an underwater optical wireless network is deployed on the seafloor. We model such an optical wireless network as a general queueing network and formulate an optimal relay placement problem, whose objective is to maximize the stability region of the whole system, i.e., the supremum of the traffic volume that the network is capable of accommodating. The formulated optimization problem is further shown to be non-convex, so that its global optimization is non-trivial. In this paper, we develop a global optimization method for this problem and we provide an efficient algorithm to compute an optimal solution. Through numerical evaluations, we show that a significant performance gain can be obtained by using the derived optimal solution.
