Wireless and wired networks have commonly evolved separately. However with the integration of quad-play services (i.e., mobile/fixed voice, video, and data) into a single network infrastructure the provisioning of end-to-end connections spanning both the wireless and the wired domains becomes an important issue. In this paper two solutions are proposed for implementing an integrated end-to-end signaling for establishing QoS-guaranteed connections in integrated WiMAX and MPLS based networks. The two solutions are based on the integration of WiMAX management messages and RSVP-TE signaling. Their main difference consists in the way flow WiMAX message and RSVPTE signaling are triggered and coordinated.

Abstract
Wireless and wired networks have commonly evolved separately. However with the integration of quad-play services (i.e., mobile/fixed voice, video, and data) into a single network infrastructure the provisioning of end-to-end connections spanning both the wireless and the wired domains becomes an important issue. In this paper two solutions are proposed for implementing an integrated end-to-end signaling for establishing QoS-guaranteed connections in integrated WiMAX and MPLS based networks. The two solutions are based on the integration of WiMAX management messages and RSVP-TE signaling. Their main difference consists in the way flow WiMAX message and RSVPTE signaling are triggered and coordinated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
