RSS handoffAdding Network-Layer Intelligence to Mobile Receivers for Solving Spurious TCP Timeout During Vertical Handoff
White Paper 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... [08 Jan 2008]
A New Prioritized Fast Handoff Protocol for Mobile IP
White Paper However, Mobile IP suffers from handoff latency due to slow handoff discovery and binding association notification. To reduce this latency, the paper proposes a new handoff protocol where it attributes a high priority to registration request... [26 Dec 2007]
Connection Handoff Policies for TCP Offload Network Interfaces
White Paper This paper presents three policies for effectively utilizing TCP offload network interfaces that support connection handoff. These policies allow connection handoff to reduce the computation and memory bandwidth requirements for packet processing... [19 Dec 2007]
TCP Offload Through Connection Handoff
White Paper This paper presents a connection handoff interface between the operating system and the network interface. Using handoff, the operating system controls the number of offloaded connections in order to fully utilize the network interface without... [19 Dec 2007]
Half-Pipe Anchoring: An Efficient Mechanism for TCP Connection Handoff
White Paper This paper presents the design and implementation of Split-Stack, a novel and efficient mechanism for handing off TCP connections that enables fine-grain load balancing among the servers of a cluster. [19 Dec 2007]
Handoff Loss Detection With E-TCP
White Paper There are two causes of packet loss in a wireless environment; they are corruption and handoff loss. In this paper, an extension for the earlier work has been proposed by the authors in order to recognise handoff loss. [05 Dec 2007]
Pre-Authenticated Fast Handoff in a Public Wireless LAN Based on IEEE 802.1x Model
White Paper In the public wireless LAN network, since re-authentication latency during handoff affects the service quality of multimedia applications, minimizing authentication latency is very important in order to support real-time multimedia applications on... [05 Dec 2007]
Selective Channel Scanning for Fast Handoff in Wireless LAN Using Neighbor Graph
White Paper Handoff at the link layer 2 (L2) consists of three phases including scanning, authentication, and reassociation. In this paper, based on the Neighbor Graph (NG), the paper introduces a selective channel scanning method with unicast for fast handoff... [05 Dec 2007]
Link Layer Assisted Mobile IP Fast Handoff Method Over Wireless LAN Networks
White Paper The growing popularity of IEEE 802.11 has made wireless LAN a potential candidate technology for providing high speed wireless access services. Also, by supporting Mobile IP, wireless LAN can meet demands for expanded wireless access coverage while... [05 Dec 2007]
Impact of Layer 2 Behavior on TCP Performance in WLAN
White Paper In such a case, avoiding performance degradation during the handoff becomes a critical issue. The majority of existing studies deal with handoff decisions based on upper layer information such as packet loss, but none of the studies extensively... [05 Dec 2007]
Bi-Directional Route Optimization in Mobile IP Over Wireless LAN
White Paper The paper developed subnet-based direct tunneling techniques to improve the routing efficiency for mobile IP and a binding optimization technique to reduce the handoff latency for mobile nodes. This paper proposes to support symmetric bidirectional... [05 Dec 2007]
Load Balancing in Overlapping Wireless LAN Cells
White Paper Overloaded access points force the handoff of some stations to balance the load. This paper proposes a load-balancing scheme for overlapping wireless LAN cells. Agents running in each access point broadcast periodically the local load level via the... [05 Dec 2007]
TCP Performance for Future IP-Based Wireless Networks
White Paper Wireless communication has significantly different characteristics compared to wired networks such as higher bit error rates, higher latency, limited bandwidth, multi-path fading of the signals and handoff. [05 Dec 2007]
Simulation-Based Performance Comparison of TCP-Variants Over Mobile IPv6 Based Mobility Management Schemes
White Paper These IPv6-based mobility management schemes like MIPv6, HMIPv6 and Fast Handovers adversely affect the performance of transport protocols like TCP during handoff. There has been a recent trend towards an all-IP network as it provides for cost... [30 Oct 2007]
Admission Control Algorithms for Revenue Optimization With QoS Guarantees in Mobile Wireless Networks
White Paper Traditional admission control algorithms make acceptance decisions for new and handoff calls to satisfy certain QoS constraints such as the dropping probability of handoff calls and the blocking probability of new calls being lower than a pre... [31 Aug 2007]
