Abstract

The number of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) devices has continued to grow at an accelerated rate. Without thoughtful and efficient resource management, M2M communications will be asymmetrically handicapped by service rate scarcity as more devices are continually added. To address these issues, in this paper, we propose a dynamic rate adaptation (DRA) scheme to obtain an optimized service rate distribution among a mixture of time-driven and event-driven M2M applications. DRA introduces real time monitoring of M2M traffic arrival rate, building on which service rate distribution between M2M applications can be adjusted momentarily, by using the mean value theorem of integrals (MVTI) and generalized processor sharing (GPS). We have validated the effectiveness of our proposed DRA scheme and our experimental results demonstrate that DRA can significantly improve M2M communications performance with respect to throughput and delay.
