Adaptive Decision Processes the Multi-path Wireless Access Solutions Implementable on the IP Routing layer

Intelligent Transport Services (ITS) applications require availability of the seamless secure communications solutions covering usually wide areas and serving frequently extensive number of moving objects. Selectable levels of service quality are required in dependence on provided transport telematics service. There is available quite extensive range of wireless data services provided by public telecommunications providers frequently in quite reasonable pricing, however, with no guaranteed service quality. Studied telematics solutions expectations lead to the multi-path solutions where principal improvement in service quality is reached by systematic implementation of the telecommunications services quality management, efficient decision processes as well as appropriate flexible architecture. Complex approach has been adopted by ISO working group TC204, WG16.1 known as CALM family of standards. Related decisions processes are, however, not as deeply discussed in available WG outputs as well as applied switching approach (L2) is rather complex for implementation. Authors, however, fully agreed with need of deep understanding of each applied alternative and precisely quantified requirements on its performance indicators. To cover high system requirements each applied technology was studied in detail to enable identification of specific performance indicators ranges as well as their internal interactions. Paper presents results of simplified heuristic decision processes pilot implementation build on technologies analysis. This pilot solution applies exclusively IP routing instead of the L2 switching approach. Obtained promising results represent relevant basis for the alternative solutions to CALM ideas based system with implemented below described complex adaptive decision processes.
