Access on Demand on Wi-Fi Networks: the Impact of Dynamic Switching of Providers for the Mobile User
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the access on demand the mobile device manages the handovers and might not need to have a service contract for connecting to a network. These features may improve or worsen the user access experience and cause some impacts related to, for instance, the received throughput, paid price and number of handovers. This paper presents the performance evaluation results of an access on demand environment with Wi-Fi networks compared to the traditional access (not on demand), through simulation. It also shows how the application, the speed of the mobile and the traffic of other users can influence the number of handovers, paid price and the total of received bytes by a mobile. The mobile device can prioritize price, received signal strength or load on the access point.

The Role of Regulatory in Price Control and Spectrum Allocation to Competing Wireless Access Networks
With the rapid growth of wireless access networks, various providers offer their services using different technologies such as Wi-Fi, Wimax, 3G, 4G and so on. These networks compete for the scarce wireless spectrum. The spectrum is considered to be a scarce resource moderated by the spectrum allocation regulatory (“regulatory” for short) which is the governance body aiming to maximize the socia...
متن کاملA Novel Approach for Controlling Mobile Data Offloading Between 3GPP and Non-3GPP Access Networks
Mobile network traffic is growing rapidly, and service providers must manage their networks efficiently to meet consumer demand. Mobile data offloading is the use of complementary network technologies for delivering data originally targeted for cellular networks. Access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) is the most complete 3GPP approach to date for controlling offloading between...

Decoupling the uplink and downlink user association improves the throughput of heterogeneous networks (HetNets) and balances the traffic load of macro- and small- base stations. Recently, fiber-wireless HetNets (FiWi-HetNets) have been considered as viable solutions for access networks. To improve the accuracy of user association and resource allocation algorithms in FiWi-HetNets, the capacity ...
