Abstract

In recent years, a significant increase of mobile data traffic has been observed, resulting in more complex and diverse network services. Thus, it becomes more difficult to fulfill the requirements of QoS-sensitive applications. The emergence of new technologies such as Cloud Computing, Software Defined Networking and Network Function Virtualization provides an excellent ecosystem for QoS routing solutions to support real-time applications requirements in wireless networks. The scope of this paper is to propose a Software Defined Wireless Network controller implementation to determine the appropriate end-to-end QoS path in a wireless network ecosystem. The proposed solution is based on Bayesian reasoning and Fuzzy logic algorithms.
