- Abstract
- One of the important issues in providing efficient multimedia traffic on a mobile computing environment is to guarantee the mobile host ( client) with consistent QoS ( Quality of Service). However, the QoS negotiated between the client and the network in one cell may not be honored due to client mobility, causing handoffs between cells. In this paper, a call admission control mechanism is proposed to provide a consistent QoS guarantee for multimedia traffic on a mobile computing environment. Each cell can reserve fractional bandwidth for hand-off calls to its adjacent cells. It is important to determine the right amount of bandwidth reserved for handoff calls because the blocking probability of new calls may increase if the amount of reserved bandwidth is more than necessary. An adaptive bandwidth reservation based on a mobility graph and a 2-tier cell structure is proposed to determine the amount of bandwidth to be reserved in the cell and to control dynamically its amount according to network conditions. We also propose a call admission control based on this bandwidth reservation and "next-cell prediction" scheme using a mobility graph. In order to evaluate the performance of our call admission control mechanism, we measure metrics such as blocking probability of new calls, dropping probability of hand-off calls, and bandwidth utilization. The simulation results show that the performance of our mechanism is superior to that of existing mechanisms such as NR-CAT2, FR-CAT2, and AR-CAT2.
