“…Corici et al (2011) proposed a RAT discovery and selection of cellular multi-RAT using the network component 'access network discovery and selection function(ANDSF),' and the SMD component 'mobility manager function(MMF)' of evolved-packet-core(EPC) in heterogeneous wireless networks. Payaswini and Manjaiah (2013) used cross-layer information to make handover decisions to help SMD achieve always best connected(ABC) Gustafsson and Jonsson (2003). RAT selection based on heterogeneous network load awareness was reported in Gerasimenko et al (2013).…”

The bandwidth-intensive applications on Smart-Mobile-Devices (SMDs) are increasing with SMD's colossal growth. The overlapped cellular and non-cellular networks, in hot-spot-places, and SMDs capabilities are significant reasons for this growth. SMD's interfaces-RAT (Radio-Access-Technology) can have complementary link characteristics. The end-users can avail always-best-connectivity (ABC) on their SMDs with complementary RAT characteristics. This paper proposes an Integrated-multi-RAT-utilization (Im-Ru) framework for multipathcomputing support to realize ABC for the end-users. The Im-Ru framework has two approaches. The First is a hybrid-RATdiscovery model based on SMD's interfaces, current-location, and identification using ANDSF and MIIS servers. The second is the user's preference-based RAT-selection using weighted-RATparameters. We observe that the Im-Ru framework for multipathcomputing is useful in future 5G-NR networks. We analyzed the Im-Ru's performance related to average-throughput improvement over the existing approaches for SMD's different speeds and observed a significant improvement. The experimental results show that Im-Ru is more reliable by realizing lower packet-loss and delay than existing work.
