802. 11网络中一种自适应的基于预测的平滑切换算法

针对802.11网络中的平滑切换算法无法适应动态变化的网络环境的缺陷,提出了一种自适应的基于预测的平滑切换算法(adaptive predictive-based smooth handoff,APBSH).其核心思想是依据当前网络环境的变化预测下一时刻的网络环境(使用扫描紧迫性和数据传输紧迫性两个参数定量表示不同的网络环境),接着依据预测结果自适应调整扫描子阶段和数据传输子阶段的时间,不但将平滑切换控制在与当前连接的接入点(AP)失去连接之前,而且提高了切换时的数据服务质量.从实验结果看出,APBSH算法较标准的802.11切换算法和平滑切换算法,更能适应动态变化的网络环境,确保切换性能的最优化.

Self-adaptive and Prediction-based Smooth Handoff Algorithm in 802. 11 Networks

To overcome the smooth scan algorithm's weakness of not adapting to the varied network environment,a self-adaptive and prediction-based smooth handoff(APBSH) algorithm was proposed.The key idea of the algorithm is using the varying recent network environment to predict the next time's(it uses two parameters:the urgent of scan and the urgent of data-transmission to represent different network environment quantitatively),and then self-adaptively choosing the suitable handoff strategy according to the predicti...
