Abstract

LTE-Advanced network will form the high-speed IP backbone in collaboration with heterogeneous radio access networks for dynamic optimized resource utilization. In order to implement more innovative and attractive services such as U-Cloud streaming, LBS and mobile smart TV, a mobile terminal needs to support multiple sessions simultaneously. Efficient resource allocation schemes are necessary to maintain QoS of multiple sessions because service continuity may be defected by delay and information loss during handover. This paper proposes a resource allocation scheme to accommodate multiple sessions in a mobile terminal on handover period based on session priority mechanism. Simulation is focused on the forced termination probability of handover sessions. Simulation results show that our proposed method provides a better performance than the conventional method.

초고속 전송 속도와 ALL-IP 기술을 기반으로 다양한 이종 접속망과 연동할 LTE-Advanced 망은 다중 모드의 이동단말기와 결합하여 U-cloud Streaming, LBS, 모바일 스마트 TV 와 같이 보다 혁신적이고 매력적인 이동 멀티미디어 응용의 구현을 가능케 할 것이다. 이러한 이동 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하려면 이동 단말기가 서비스 품질 요구사항이 상이한 다수의 세션을 동시에 지원해야 한다. 특히 핸드오버 시 지연 및 손실에 의해 서비스 지속성에 악영향을 줄 가능성이 있으므로, 다중 세션들의 QoS를 유지하기 위한 효율적인 자원 예약 및 할당 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문은 세션 우선순위와 세션 자원 할당에 근거하여 다중 세션을 효과적으로 수용하기 위한 핸드오버시의 자원 할당 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 성능을 핸드오버 세션 강제절단률을 척도로 하여 시뮬레이션에 의해 분석한다.
