Abstract

In wireless networking environments, supporting guaranteed quality of service to mobile hosts is difficult due to the facts that wireless networks have limited bandwidth and mobile hosts frequently move in and out of cells. In spite of the characteristics of wireless communications, the quality of some types of services, i.e., real-time services, must be guaranteed at a certain level. When a mobile host moves into another cell, service rates for mobile hosts in wireless networks may be adjusted since wireless networks have limited bandwidths. In this paper, we propose two resource allocation algorithms in wireless mobile networks, using quality of service (QoS) specifications. For efficient use of resources of wireless networks, the proposed algorithms dynamically allocate rates of flows in proportion to QoS with limited resources.

무선 네트워크 환경에서는 네트워크의 제한된 대역폭과 이동 호스트의 잦은 셀 간 이동으로 인하여, 각 호스트가 요구하는 서비스의 질(Quality of Service)을 보장하기 힘들다. 이런 무선 통신의 특성에서도, 실시간 서비스와 같은 특정 종류의 서비스의 경우에는 요구되어지는 범위 내에서 그 서비스의 질이 반드시 보장되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 무선 이동 네트워크 환경에서 각 서비스의 서비스 율을 어떻게 조정할 것인가에 대해 논의한다. 무선 네트워크 환경에서 이동 호스트가 다른 셀로 이동하였을 경우, 부족한 대역폭을 고려하여 호스트의 서비스 율이 조정된다. 본 논문에서 각 플로우의 QoS Spec을 고려하여 서비스 율을 할당하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서는 각 플로우가 요구하는 QoS spec 값에 비례하도록 서비스 율을 정하여 부족한 네트워크 자원을 동적으로 할당함으로써, 무선 네트워크 자원을 보다 효율적으로 사용할 수 있게 한다.
