Traffic Statistics on the Coverage of WLAN-BASED Music Shower
Helal Chowdhury, Juha-Pekka Makea, Kaveh Pahlavan · 2006
WLAN-based music shower is music delivery system. In WLAN-based music shower high speed WLAN technologies will be used as underlying technologies to deliver music to the mobile user quickly and cheaply. The size of music file downloaded from the WLAN-based music shower depends on many factors such as distance between user and WLAN-based music shower, channel characteristics, as well as the underlying technologies used in the WLAN-based music shower. The impact of these factors can be characterized with throughput-distance relationship model. This paper provides a mathematical framework for calculating the received average throughput and total file size while randomly crossing the coverage area of an WLAN-based music shower. Two throughput-distance relationship models are presented to analyze the music file transfer during random crossing of the coverage area of an WLAN-based music shower. Utilizing the results of this analysis, the performance of WLAN-based music shower using IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g WLAN technologies are also compared
