Abstract:
In multimedia delivery, especially for mobile users, the Multi-Path Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) can ameliorate the sustainability of multimedia sessions continuity. MPTCP establishes a number of sub-flows equals to the number of the available wireless active connections so, the chance of service interruptions decreases. This paper investigates the performance evaluation of using MPTCP in heterogeneous wireless networks (HetNets). Through this evaluation, we propose two dimensional Markov model for MPTCP seamless handover between two wireless connections. Then, we implement the handover algorithm using MPTCP open source Linux Kernel. Moreover, an implementation for Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) platform is conducted in order to valorise the MPTCP aspect in such real time platforms. The overall results show that MPTCP outperforms classical methodologies of handover.
