Abstract :
In this paper, the authors have demonstrated a principle to capture the strong correlation of location and WWAN network bandwidth in the form of bandwidth-road maps.The authors demonstrated how these maps can be used to intelligently schedule traffic in a multi-homed mobile network. Preliminary results show that this approach can effectively improve the user experience of on-board audio streaming.
