Leveraging Mobility to Improve Quality of Service in Mobile Networks

Overview Existing solutions for QoS-aware routing in mobile multi-hop networks attempt to discover a QoS satisfactory route for the user at the user's current location. If a suitable route is not available at the current location, the user is denied access. This approach does not take advantage of the special characteristics of mobile multi-hop networks. That is, users in these networks are mobile and their connectivity is dependent on their location and the locations of other users. By changing their location, users can alter their connectivity characteristics and potentially obtain better service from the network. This paper proposes enhancing QoS-aware routing protocols to take advantage of this characteristic.
