This paper proposes mobility prediction technique via Markov Chains with an input of user’s mobile data traces to predict the user’s movement in wireless network. The main advantage of this method is prediction will give knowledge of user’s movement in advance even in fast moving vehicle. Furthermore, the information from prediction result will be use to assist handover procedure by reserve resource allocation in advance in vehicular network. This algorithm is simple and can be computed within short time; thus the implementation of this technique will give the significant impact especially on higher speed vehicle. Finally, an experiment is performed using real mobile user data traces as input for Markov chain to predict next user movement. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, MATLAB simulations are carried out with several users under same location zone. The results show that the proposed method predicts have good performance which is 30% of mobile users achieved 100% of prediction accuracy.
