Abstract :
This paper presents a capacity and Available Transfer Rate evaluation mechanism which can be used in a heterogeneous wireless network. This is needed to perform load balancing over several wireless links in order to fulfill the transfer rate and connectivity requirements of Next Generation Network services. The implemented measurement tool is based on WBest and the experiments considered different values of the received signal level and background traffic of the wireless network.
