User mobility modeling and characterization of mobility patterns
- IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
, 1997
"... Abstract—A mathematical formulation is developed for systematic tracking of the random movement of a mobile station in a cellular environment. It incorporates mobility parameters under the most generalized conditions, so that the model can be tailored to be applicable in most cellular environments. ..."

Supporting User Mobility
- In Proceedings of IFIP World Conference on Mobile Communications
, 1996
"... The availability of wireless network connections to laptop computers and PDA's has created interest in the issues surrounding mobile computing. However, enabling users to be genuinely mobile in their work requires more than a wireless connection. Distributed system services are needed to suppor ..."

User Cooperation Diversity -- Part I: System Description
- IEEE TRANS. COMMUN
, 1998
"... Mobile users' data rate and quality of service are limited by the fact that, within the duration of any given call, they experience severe variations in signal attenuation, thereby necessitating the use of some type of diversity. In this two-part paper, we propose a new form of spatial diver ..."

Cyberguide: A Mobile Context-Aware Tour Guide
, 1996
"... Future computing environments will free the user from the constraints of the desktop. Applications for a mobile environment should take advantage of contextual information, suach as position, to offer greater services to the user. In his paper, we present the Cyberguide project, in which we are buil ..."

A survey of context-aware mobile computing research
, 2000
"... Context-aware computing is a mobile computing paradigm in which applications can discover and take advantage of contextual information (such as user location, time of day, nearby people and devices, and user activity). Since it was proposed about a decade ago, many researchers have studied this topi ..."

Mobility increases the capacity of ad-hoc wireless networks
- IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING
, 2002
"... The capacity of ad-hoc wireless networks is constrained by the mutual interference of concurrent transmissions between nodes. We study a model of an ad-hoc network where n nodes communicate in random source-destination pairs. These nodes are assumed to be mobile. We examine the per-session throughpu ..."

-session throughput for applications with loose delay constraints, such that the topology changes over the time-scale of packet delivery. Under this assumption, the per-user throughput can increase dramatically when nodes are mobile rather than fixed. This improvement can be achieved by exploiting node mobility as a
RADAR: an in-building RF-based user location and tracking system
, 2000
"... The proliferation of mobile computing devices and local-area wireless networks has fostered a growing interest in location-aware systems and services. In this paper we present RADAR, a radio-frequency (RF) based system for locating and tracking users inside buildings. RADAR operates by recording and ..."

A Survey of Mobility Models for Ad Hoc Network Research
- WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS & MOBILE COMPUTING (WCMC): SPECIAL ISSUE ON MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKING: RESEARCH, TRENDS AND APPLICATIONS
, 2002
"... In the performance evaluation of a protocol for an ad hoc network, the protocol should be tested under realistic conditions including, but not limited to, a sensible transmission range, limited buffer space for the storage of messages, representative data traffic models, and realistic movements of t ..."

We describe several mobility models that represent mobile nodes whose movements are independent of each other (i.e., entity mobility models) and several mobility models
Highly Dynamic Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector Routing (DSDV) for Mobile Computers
