Abstract

The key problem that is expected in the future mobile wireless networks is related with the mobility effect on the network data traffic, which may cause the performance degradation and congestion. This paper explores the mobility effect on the delay and congestion when the future mobile wireless networks have become the whole IP based networks and introduces a network level congestion control based on the Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) broadcasting in the wireless sub networks. The simulation results are provided to show the performance improvement when the proposed scheme’s adopted.
