Abstract :
This letter proposes an analytic model to study the mis-routing problem caused by user mobility in a wireless VoIP system. We derive the probability that there are n mis-routed calls when a subscriber moves from IP network to the GSM network. Our study indicates that if the user residence times in GSM location areas, inter-call origination times and the inter-call delivery times are of the same order, then the mis-routing effect can not be ignored.
