Abstract :
Third generation wireless networks are expected to carry traffic from heterogeneous sources of voice, data, video or multimedia with a specified quality of service. We investigate how packet transfer mode over the radio interface can increase the efficiency of radio resources when there is multiple coverage of overlapping cells. Our discussion is focused primarily on multiple link packet protocol operation and its performance. We present an analysis of the system performance using a Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP) for the aggregate of ON-OFF state traffic and for the overflow processes and quantify the performance improvement through a numerical example
