Abstract

This paper proposes a novel mobility model aiming at capturing the grouped mobility behavior of the users of a wireless network. The description and possibly the exploitation of similar mobility patterns of users, moving in a correlated fashion and originating groups, is an important challenge for future generation networks. In fact, a correct understanding of this phenomenon can be applied in order to gain cross-layer knowledge, therefore improving the management of the network by exploiting the presence of mobile groups.
