Abstract

In this paper, we explore a novel online packet scheduling model based on vehicular network applications. The model incorporates multiple networks with non-persistent connectivity where we only know which networks are available at the current time. Our goal is to achieve the minimum requirement of vehicular application classes and also maximize the throughput of these classes. NS3 simulations were performed to analyze the behavior of our scheduling model by comparing it with the standard scheduling using only LTE and WiFi networks, as well as the handover between these two networks. We observed that the proposed scheduling model had a low packet loss and low delay.
