Abstract:
Next Generation Wireless Networks (NGWN) is a ubiquitous environment that integrates various wireless technologies such as WLAN, 3G, and WiMAX based on IP. One of the most challenging issues of NGWN is providing seamless service continuity while user roaming among different wireless access networks. Context awareness has showed a significant effect to guarantee services continuity. In this paper, we will evaluate the proposed Context-Aware Management Scheme (CAMS) in the case of video application in terms of different performance parameters such as jitter, packet loss and end-to end delay.
