Abstract

Data streaming has been identified as a key challenge in Mobile networks. Mobile handover is the key factor in maintaining data streaming and there exist number of approaches available which perform mobility handover according to energy, signal strength, and mobility speed. However, the methods suffer to achieve higher performance in data streaming. To handle this issue, an efficient Mobility and Energy based Streaming Model (MESM) is presented in this article. The method maintains the traces of streaming and network conditions like number of base stations with node details like energy, mobility speed and data rate received, signal strength, data rate required. Using all these details, the proposed model estimates Data Rate Factor (DRF) at each interval. The method identifies set of base station and routes to compute DRF factor according to the statistics. Based on the value of DRF value, the method performs handover with different base station. The proposed MESM improves the performance of handover and data streaming.
