| Abstract | A vehicle area network (VAN) is a local area network deployed onboard a moving vehicle, e.g., a train, bus, or a private car, to provide high-speed Internet access to the passengers. A VAN may face temporary network disconnection when the vehicle passes through challenging radio environments, e.g., deep tunnels. Such disconnections disrupt the ongoing network services causing passenger dissatisfaction. Given that tunnel locations are known, we propose to use geographical knowledge in the admission control function of the VAN to reduce the probability of service disruption. A geographic admission controller (GAC) rejects a new call request based on the vehicle's current location if it can be determined that the vehicle would enter a tunnel within a short period of time. By rejecting a new call prior to entering a tunnel, GAC reduces the probability of an admitted call to be disrupted, but it does so at the expense of increasing probability that a new request would be blocked. For a quantitative investigation of the trade-off between these two important probabilities, we propose a 2-D Markov Chain model. Using the model, we derive both probabilities as a function of the time interval from the moment the GAC starts rejecting new requests until the vehicle actually enters the tunnel. This time interval is a configurable parameter which controls both probabilities. The model is validated using simulation. Our model reveals that the disruption probability can be reduced quadratically with a linear increase in the blocking probability. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
