Abstract
The paper is devoted to the problem of mobility and resources management in heterogeneous wireless networks. It is assumed that in certain area covered by multiple overlapping wireless networks there is certain number of mobile client which consume networks resources by use of available communication services (e.g.: voice or data transmission) delivered by network providers. Moreover it is assumed, that communication services continuity may be assured with use of common handover techniques supporting clients mobility (e.g: MIPv6, IEEE 802.21, etc.). The task of mobility and resources management consists of making decisions concerning the moment and the network to which particular clients should be handed over in order to optimize certain quality criterion (e.g. utilization of network resources). In this paper we show that gathering knowledge about clients movement and prediction of their future position may significantly improve the overall quality of delivered services and network resources utilization.
