Integrated Cellular and Ad Hoc Relay (iCAR) Systems: Pushing the Performance Limits of Conventional Wireless Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
Performance of iCAR system a new load balancing scheme in wireless networks is analyzed. Traffic capacity enhancement of the iCAR system with respect to the conventional cellular system, without any load balancing, is evaluated. It is shown that, with a moderate amount of relay coverage, perfect load balancing can be achieved, thus enabling the system to support maximum possible traffic intensity for a given grade of service.

In this paper, we study the hand-off performance of a wireless system with heterogeneous technologies called iCAR (Integrated Cellular and Ad hoc Relaying). In iCAR, hand-offs can occur not only from a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) to another BTS, but also from a BTS to a so-called Ad hoc Relaying Station (ARS) in the form of relaying, as well as from an ARS back to a BTS. The latter two types...
متن کاملQueuing delay performance of the integrated cellular and ad hoc relaying system
The Integrated Cellular and Ad hoc Relaying (iCAR) system is a representative heterogeneous wireless system, proposed to address the congestion problem in the wireless networks. In this paper, we present an analytic model based on Markov chains for the queuing delay performance of iCAR. Our results show that the new call requests in iCAR have a significantly lower queuing delay than that of the...
