Parametric Estimation of Handoff
The efficiency of wireless technology depends upon the seamless connectivity
to the user at anywhere any time.Heterogeneous wireless networks are an
integration of different networks with diversified technologies. The most
essential requirement for Seamless vertical handover is that the received
signal strength should always be healthy. Mobile device enabled with multiple
wireless technologies makes it possible to maintain seamless connectivity in
highly dynamic environment.Since the available bandwidth is limited and the
number of users is growing rapidly, it is a real challenge to maintain the
received signal strength in a healthy stage.In this work, the proposed, cost
effective parametric estimation for vertical handover shows that the received
signal strength maintains a healthy level by considering the novel concept.Comment: 5 Pages,3 figures, NCCCS-12,ISBN:978-1-4673-2837-
Optimal mobility-aware admission control in content delivery networks
This paper addresses the problem of mobility management in Content Delivery Networks (CDN). We introduce a CDN architecture where admission control is performed at mobility aware access routers. We formulate a Markov Modulated Poisson Decision Process for access control that captures the bursty nature of data and packetized traffic together with the heterogeneity of multimedia services. The optimization of performance parameters, like the blocking probabilities and the overall utilization, is conducted and the structural properties of the optimal solutions are also studied. Heuristics are proposed to encompass the computational difficulties of the optimal solution when several classes of multimedia traffic are considered

A directionally based bandwidth reservation scheme for call admission control
This paper proposes a new advanced Call Admission Control(CAC) strategy involving for the first time, a bandwidth reservation scheme that is influenced by the direction attribute of a mobile terminal (MT). Aside from the Quality-of-Service (QoS) parameters, the direction attribute plays a key role in efficiently reserving resources for MTs supporting multimedia communications for different QoS classes. The framework for a direction-based CAC system is entirely distributed and may be viewed as a message passing system, where MTs inform their neighbouring base stations (BS) not only of their QoS requirements, but also of their mobility parameters. The base stations then predict future demand and reserve resources accordingly, only admitting those terminals that can be adequately supported. The bandwidth reservation scheme proposed in this paper, integrates the direction attribute into the conventional Guard Channel (GC) scheme. Simulation results prove that this new scheme offers significant improvements in both Call Blocking Probability (CBP) and bandwidth utilization, under a variety of differing traffic conditions
