TCP HandOff: A Practical TCP Enhancement for Heterogeneous Mobile Environments

whitepaper In this paper, TCP HandOff (TCP-HO), a practical end-to-end mechanism, is proposed for improving TCP performance in heterogeneous mobile environments. In particular, TCP faces severe challenges when user moves around in these networks and handoff...

Performance Analysis of Cell Switching Management Scheme in Wireless Packet Communications

whitepaper This paper proposes a novel cell switching (e.g.packet handoff) scheme to support QoS guarantee for downlink in EGPRS (Enhanced General Packet Radio Service) network. The paper defines the new packets and handoff packets for each type of traffic...

Comparison Between Vertical Handoff Decision Algorithms for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

whitepaper The next generation wireless networks will support the vertical handoff mechanism in which users can maintain the connections when they switch from one network to another (e.g.from IEEE 802.11b to CDMA 1xRTT network, and vice versa).
