A QoS Provisioning Based on Load Balancing for Hand-over in OFDMA System

Efficient resource management and hand-over schemes are necessary to maintain consistent QoS because it may be severely defected by some delay and information loss during hand-over in LTE-Advanced networks. This paper proposes a resource management scheme based on the load control to support consistent QoS for heterogeneous services during hand-over in OFDMA based systems. Various multimedia services with different requirements for resource are able to be serviced simultaneously because service continuity can be provided by our proposed scheme. Simulation results show that it provides better performances than the conventional one with the measure of hand-over failure rate and packet loss rate.
