Abstract

Current cellular networks are overloaded due to the increasing number of smartphones and demands for bandwidth-eager multimedia content. Upgrading the existing infrastructure of the cellular system is the most straight forward solution to meet the growing demand. Apart from this, offloading mobile data through Wi-Fi can be a feasible solution. Mobile offloading via Wi-Fi is the latest emerging trend in research and industry. In this article, the authors have proposed a framework for mobile data offloading for both cellular and Wi-Fi networks. The authors have introduced a daemon process-based approach to make the entire process lightweight by using a suitable offloading decision algorithm. This article then formulates a mathematical model to evaluate its feasibility and accuracy for achieving optimum performance.
