|abstract=This paper presents CellFusion, a system designed for high-quality, real-time video streaming from vehicles to the cloud. It leverages an innovative blend of multipath QUIC transport and network coding. Surpassing the limitations of individual cellular carriers, CellFusion uses a unique last-mile overlay that integrates multiple cellular networks into a single, unified cloud connection. This integration is made possible through the use of in-vehicle Customer Premises Equipment (CPEs) and edge-cloud proxy servers.
|abstract=LoRa has emerged as one of the promising long-range and low-power wireless communication technologies for Internet of Things (IoT). With the massive deployment of LoRa networks, the ability to perform Firmware Update Over-The-Air (FUOTA) is becoming a necessity for unattended LoRa devices. LoRa Alliance has recently dedicated the specification for FUOTA, but the existing solution has several drawbacks, such as low energy efficiency, poor transmission reliability, and biased multicast grouping. In this paper, we propose a novel energy-efficient, reliable, and beamforming-assisted FUOTA system for LoRa networks named FLoRa, which is featured with several techniques, including delta scripting, channel coding, and beamforming. In particular, we first propose a novel joint differencing and compression algorithm to generate the delta script for processing gain, which unlocks the potential of incremental FUOTA in LoRa networks. Afterward, we design a concatenated channel coding scheme to enable reliable transmission against dynamic link quality. The proposed scheme uses a rateless code as outer code and an error detection code as inner code to achieve coding gain. Finally, we design a beamforming strategy to avoid biased multicast and compromised throughput for power gain. Experimental results on a 20-node testbed demonstrate that FLoRa improves network transmission reliability by up to 1.51 × and energy efficiency by up to 2.65 × compared with the existing solution in LoRaWAN.
In order to effectively handle unstable cellular connections prone to intense burst losses and unexpected latency spikes as a vehicle moves, CellFusion introduces XNC. This innovative network coding-based transport solution enables efficient and resilient multipath transport. XNC aims to accomplish low latency, minimal traffic redundancy, and reduced computational complexity all at once. CellFusion is secure and transparent by nature and does not require modifications for vehicular apps connecting to it.
|confname=IPSN 2023
We tested CellFusion on 100 self-driving vehicles for over six months with our cloud-native back-end running on 50 CDN PoPs. Through extensive road tests, we show that XNC reduced video packet delay by 71.53% at the 99th percentile versus 5G. At 30Mbps, CellFusion achieved 66.11% ~ 80.62% reduction in video stall ratio versus state-of-the-art multipath transport solutions with less than 10% traffic redundancy.

    Abstract: LoRa has emerged as one of the promising long-range and low-power wireless communication technologies for Internet of Things (IoT). With the massive deployment of LoRa networks, the ability to perform Firmware Update Over-The-Air (FUOTA) is becoming a necessity for unattended LoRa devices.

  2. [INFOCOM 2023] Prophet: An Efficient Feature Indexing Mechanism for Similarity Data Sharing at Network Edge, Rong Cong
    Abstract: As a promising infrastructure, edge storage systems have drawn many attempts to efficiently distribute and share data among edge servers. However, it remains open to meeting the increasing demand for similarity retrieval across servers. The intrinsic reason is that the existing solutions can only return an exact data match for a query while more general edge applications require the data similar to a query input from any server. To fill this gap, this paper pioneers a new paradigm to support high-dimensional similarity search at network edges. Specifically, we propose Prophet, the first known architecture for similarity data indexing.
