Abstract :
As various types of wireless systems are characterized by its own individual reliability and transmission cost in the multi-band maritime communication network, a means of selecting a least-cost system is required for transmitting the shipment information within a pre-specified time constraint. In this paper, a simple decision criterion for a least-cost network selection has been derived with a stochastic Markov decision process, so as to warrant the delay-constrained transmission in a distributed manner. Our simulation results show that the proposed approach can reduce the transmission cost dramatically under the varying channel conditions of the different networks.
