This paper presents alternative solutions for protocol and distributed control of MM-MAN (Mobile Multimedia Metropolitan Area Network), and evaluates delay in handover and packet loss. MM-MAN is assumed to be a component network of future mobile networks when multimedia communications become popular in the mobile network. Multimedia traffic cannot be handled only with macro-cellular networks, though...
To provide high speed connections for a large numbers of users in moving vehicles, a new broadband mobile network should be considered to go on the research to complement the lack of high data rate support from the existing 3G. Following this trend, authors introduce a design of a broadband microcellular network MM-MAN (mobile multimedia metropolitan area network) that can offer mobile users in a...
This paper presents a scalable control system for a unified micro-cellular network named MM-MAN (mobile multimedia metropolitan area network) in which fast terminals are provided high-bit rate IP packet transfer. In our previous papers, proposed schemes to guarantee smooth connections to fast movers in spite of frequent movement are LMC (logical macro cell) and parallel polling. LMC-a multicast group...
This paper introduces our project named MM-MAN (Mobile Multimedia Metropolitan Area Network) aiming to provide high-bit rate packet transfer to fast-moving terminals in a micro-cellular network. One of the advanced services assumed in MM-MAN is a LAN extension to the cellular network. This paper first presents advantages of MM-MAN compared with a mobile network constructed with a double tier-cell...
This paper evaluates how the parallel polling and LMC (logical macro cell) designed operating in the micro-cellular MM-MAN (mobile multimedia metropolitan area network) can provide high-bit-rate packet transfer to fast-moving terminals (FMTs). An LMC groups several adjacent micro-cells in a multicast group to a virtual single macro cell. LMC is always switched over together with a motion of FMT when...
One of objectives of the future 4G mobile network is to provide broadband connection to mobile users regardless of their speed. Microcellular-based mobile networks must be an essential one in the 4G mobile generation from the view of rich radio resource for multimedia communications. This paper presents the architecture of MM-MAN (mobile multimedia metropolitan area network) network of which target...
