2004 IEEE Aerospace Conference Queueing Analysis for Access Points with Failures and Handoffs of Mobile Stations in Wireless Networks Chen Xinyu and Michael R. Lyu The Chinese Univ. of Hong Kong 2004-03-08 Big Sky, MT
Outline • Wireless network architecture • System model and assumptions • Five dispatch strategies • Analytical results and comparisons • Conclusions CUHK
Handoff: a mechanism for a Mobile Station to seamlessly change a connection from one Access Point to another Mobile Station Static Host Access Point Wired Link Cell Radio Link Wireless Network Architecture CUHK
• R: Recovery time • H: Handoff time State Transition Diagram • Three states for a mobile station • State 0 – Normal, State 1 – Recovery, State 2 – Handoff 0 2 1 CUHK
System Model and Assumptions • Communications among all three components are by message-passing • The message arrival process for each Mobile Station is with a constant rate • The message dispatch requirementDis an exponentially distributed random variable with rate • The Access Point itself does not undergo failures CUHK
Undispatchable Message • Undispatchable message • a message reaches the dispatch facility, however, its target mobile station is not in the normal state, i.e., in the recovery or handoff state CUHK
Expected Sojourn Time • Sojourn time • the time period between that a message enters an Access Point and that the message leaves it • Objective • Derive the expected message sojourn time in an Access Point with different dispatch strategies in the presence of failures and handoffs of Mobile Stations.
