Abstract

In recent years we have witnessed a great demand for high speed Internet access in vehicular environment, e.g., trains, buses and medical transport. This chapter introduces an integrated architecture for 4G vehicular mobile networks, which aims to guarantee high quality in provisioned triple-play traffic services (video, voice, and data) to road users. Within this architecture which is based on a cross layer design approach, our contributions can be described in three folds. Firstly, the authors introduce simple and efficient probing mechanisms which are integrated with network resource reservation policies for multihomed vehicular networks. Secondly, packet, flow and user splitting mechanisms have been integrated with end admission traffic control and scheduling mechanisms to guarantee even traffic load distribution among available air interfaces. Finally, the whole architecture has been evaluated under OMNeT++, where results illustrate the impact of network mobility on quality in provisioned services offered to a multihomed NEMO.
