Proactive Scan: Fast Handoff With Smart Triggers for 802.11 Wireless LAN
It has been a challenging problem to support VoIP-type delay sensitive applications in an 802.11 wireless LAN because the standard handoff procedure implemented in many current 802.11 products occurs a delay deem unacceptable to VoIP users. To reduce this delay, the authors have developed a fast handoff scheme called Proactive...

TCP HandOff: A Practical TCP Enhancement for Heterogeneous Mobile Environments
Many different kinds of wireless access networks have been deployed for the Internet and have become inseparable parts of the Internet. But TCP, the most widely used transport protocol of the Internet, was designed for stationery hosts. In particular, TCP faces severe challenges when user moves around in these networks...

Adding Network-Layer Intelligence to Mobile Receivers for Solving Spurious TCP Timeout During Vertical Handoff
With the help of Mobile IP/IPv6 and soft handoff, on-going TCP sessions can remain active and handoff packet loss can be avoided. However, TCP still faces several performance degradation issues due to the disparities in bandwidth and propagation delay between different access networks. Particularly, during vertical handoffs, some undesirable phenomenon...

An Adaptive Multipath Protocol for Efficient IP Handoff in Mobile Wireless Networks
Achieving IP handoff with a short latency and minimal packet loss is essential for mobile devices that roam across IP subnets. Many existing solutions require changes to be made to the network or transport layer, and they tend to suffer from long handoff latency in either soft or hard handoff...

TCP Offload Through Connection Handoff
This paper presents a connection handoff interface between the operating system and the network interface. Using this interface, the operating system can offload a subset of TCP connections in the system to the network interface, while the remaining connections are processed on the host CPU. Offloading can reduce computation and...

Use our rules of engagement policy to set guidelines for internal consulting
Not what I was looking forI was hoping to find a policy document that would address the "handoff" between Sales Engineering and Implementation (Consulting, Post Sales Services, etc.). This handoff is tricky, and keeping expectations properly set can be difficult. I'm trying to craft a policy document for both the...

Make-Before-Break MAC Layer Handoff in 802.11 Wireless Networks
To support real-time applications such as Voice-over-IP within an 802.11Wireless LAN, efficient handoff mechanisms are required when a mobile client moves from one Access Point to another. This paper presents the design, implementation and performance results of MAC layer (layer-2) handoff algorithms which implement make-before-break mechanisms at the MAC layer...

Multi Layer Rules Based Framework for Vertical Handoff
Seamless interoperability between two dissimilar networks require handoff from one network to the other. Such handoffs are known as vertical handoffs. Vertical handoff introduces a shift in the approach to handoffs. It deals with handoffs between dissimilar networks, such as from an access point to a base station or vice...

Soft Handoff and Uplink Capacity in a Two-Tier CDMA System
In systems using Code-Division Multiple Access CDMA, user capacity is enhanced by using soft handoff. Soft handoff means that a given user communicates simultaneously with two or more base stations until its path gain to just one of them is several dB stronger than its path gain to any other....

Design and Evaluation of iMesh: An Infrastructure-Mode Wireless Mesh Network
In this paper, iMesh, an infrastructure-mode 802.11-based mesh network, is designed and evaluated. In the paper, 802.11 access points double as routers making the network architecture completely transparent to mobile clients, who view the network as a conventional wireless LAN. Layer-2 handoffs between access points trigger routing activities inside the...

HAMS: Layer 2 Handoff Accurate Measurement Strategy in WLANs 802.11
The layer 2 handoff latency in WLANs 802.11 has traditionally been measured as the time between the first probe request message sent by the mobile station and the arrival of a reassociation response message from an access point. However, that measure does not represent the time the station remains disconnected...
