—One of the major problems of deploying RSVP in the mobile environment is called the advance resource reservation problem. If an RSVP reservation path is reserved in advance in the subnet that a mobile node will visit, the mobile node can continue its QoS session smoothly when it hands over to that subnet. However, if too many network resources are used for advance reservation, new QoS sessions originating from that subnet will experience a higher probability of being blocked needlessly. In this paper, we propose a new advance resource reservation scheme that properly constrains the amount of advance reservations in a subnet and only allows the mobile nodes with large value of session-to-mobility ratio (SMR) to make advance reservation. We evaluate the proposed scheme and the results show that our scheme can effectively reduce both active and passive reservation blocking probabilities and achieves a better utilisation of the network resources, especially when the trafﬁc intensity i...
