在未來的整合性行動通訊網路中,使用者能夠透過不同網路(如: 3G, WLAN, WMAN)來存取資料。然而從2004年開始,新一代的無線上網WiMax技術,逐漸被接受為是網路發展的下一個主流技術。自從WiMAX被逐漸重視後,結合WLAN 與WiMAX就被廣泛的討論並視為目前無線寬頻市場的趨勢。本篇論文提出了結合WiMAX 與 WLAN的雙層(two-tier)網路下,整合允入控制機制(admission control)、網路資源保留(resource reservation)技術,以及頻寬借用機制(resource borrowing),提出兩套網路資源管理機制(resource management scheme)。此外,當即時多媒體影音服務(real-time multimedia traffic)在傳輸時所產生的突波(burst)會造成頻寬資源的浪費,本文利用了模糊理論(Fuzzy Theory),提出一套fuzzy bandwidth controller來控制給予即時多媒體影音服務傳輸(real-time multimedia traffic)的頻寬,達到資料的QoS需求,並降低call blocking probability (CBP)以及 call dropping probability (CDP),以求更有效率的使用系統頻寬。
In the next generation high-speed wireless networks, one of the most challenging issues will be supporting multimedia applications with different quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. For a multimedia traffic, especially for the real-time variable bit rate (VBR) traffic, e.g. video, that occupies large amount of bandwidth. Inefficient bandwidth allocation may lead to under-utilization of network resources. This paper proposes two resource management schemes for multimedia services in two-tier wireless communication networks. A priority based resource reservation method will be proposed to adaptively reserve bandwidth in the resource management scheme 1(RMS 1). And a resource borrowing scheme (RMS 2) is presented to adjust the passive capacity to reduce the blocking probability of real-time call. Furthermore, a fuzzy bandwidth controller is proposed to adaptively adjust the allocated bandwidth to improve the system performance for the real-time VBR traffics for the two proposed schemes. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes can reduce the real-time call blocking and dropping probabilities. Also, the simulation results show that the proposed fuzzy bandwidth controller further reduces the call blocking and dropping probability for real-time and data calls to enhance the system performance.
