International Journal of Mobile Communications (IJMC), Vol. 2, No. 4, 2004

Abstract: Mobile commerce (m-commerce) is a new type of e-commerce that conducts business transactions via mobile devices. Due to its inherent characteristics such as ubiquity, personalisation, flexibility and dissemination, m-commerce promises businesses unprecedented market potential, great productivity and high profitability. Yet, the move to create a wireless version of the internet means a new set of problems. One of the problems is slow transmission speed. The purpose of this paper is to propose a wireless data multiplexing method for improving the transmission efficiency. The simulation results show the new method, which reduces the vacant blocks and addressing overheads, outperforms the current methods.
