Abstract
Mobility metrics of wireless networks such as link availability, number of neighboring nodes, link duration, link state, and link stability make it difficult to provide a node with quality of services guarantee. In previous research on Quality of Service (QoS) for cellular networks especially for handling handoff connections, the design was based on a flat 2D hexagon cells. However, in reality Base Station antenna coverage is in a 3D space and there exists a blind spot; the area which is just above and bellow the radiated antenna. In this paper we introduce the concept of Blind Spot (BS) in which there is no signals to initiate a call or accepting a handoff one. In BS, the signal power equal zero. Even if there is enough bandwidth to initiate or accept a handoff call, it will be blocked or dropped respectively. We present an implementation of Static Borrowing Scheme (SBS) and we extend the dynamic-rate based borrowing scheme [1] into 3-Dimentional structure and call it 3-Dimensional Dynamic Based Borrowing Scheme (3D DBBS). The proposed new technique for resource sharing is to ensure the continuity for both originating and handoff connections in 3-D cellular networks based on Dynamic-Based Borrowing Scheme (3D BBS). This technique aims to minimize the blocking probability of the originating calls by minimizing the dropping probability of the handoff requests and maximizing the channel utilization. The results revealed that 3D DBBS outperformed the static based schemes by 5% on average even when the blind spot of the base station antenna is taken into consideration. When moving to a 3D space, the results of the simulation showed the 3D DBBS outperformed the static scheme by 2% on average. As a result, considering nodes in a 3D space will have better QoS guarantee as the blocking and dropping probabilities are decreased. Thus, the bandwidth utilization is increased.
