Abstract :
An efficient handoff control scheme using dynamic bandwidth sharing in multimedia mobile cellular networks is presented. The numerical results show that compared to the commonly used bandwidth reservation based handoff control scheme, higher bandwidth utilisation is achieved in the proposed scheme under different traffic loading distributions, while lower call dropping probabilities are also maintained.
