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]
Handoff Management Without Intercell Hard Handoffs in a Multifrequency CDMA System
White Paper This paper addresses handoff management in a multifrequency code-division multiple-access system with nonuniform traffic loads over cells. The paper proposes a new handoff scheme, called here adaptive handoff management (AHM), in which the inter... [21 Feb 2006]
Soft Handoff and Uplink Capacity in a Two-Tier CDMA System
White Paper 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... [24 Mar 2008]
Adding 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]
Supporting Programmable Handoff in Mobile Networks
White Paper In this white paper we describe the design, implementation and evaluation of a programmable architecture for profiling, composing and deploying handoff services. The future wireless access networks will be built on the foundation of open... [24 Feb 2004]
Fast Handoff for Seamless Wireless Mesh Networks
White Paper This paper presents the architecture and protocols of SMesh, a completely transparent wireless mesh system that offers seamless, fast handoff, supporting VoIP and other real time application traffic for any unmodified 802.11 device. [01 Aug 2007]
Design, Implementation and Evaluation of Programmable Handoff in Mobile Networks
White Paper We describe the design, implementation and evaluation of a programmable architecture for profiling, composing and deploying handoff services. Customizing handoff control and mobility management in this manner calls for advances in software and... [24 Feb 2004]
Impact of Soft Handoff on TCP Throughput Over CDMA Wireless Cellular Networks
White Paper In CDMA cellular networks, the soft handoff technique allows a mobile host to communicate with multiple base stations simultaneously, improving the transmission quality of the wireless channel and avoiding disconnection upon to base station... [14 Jan 2008]
An Enhanced Handoff Mechanism for Cellular IP
White Paper Handoff is one of the most important factors that may degrade the performance of TCP connections in wireless data networks. This paper presents a lossless and duplication free handoff scheme called LPM (Last Packet Marking) for improving Cellular... [14 Jan 2008]
Performance Analysis of Optimized Smooth Handoff in Mobile IP
White Paper In order to reduce more the packet losses during handoff, new schemes have been defined, such as smooth handoff. Mobile IP allows node mobility involving changes of point-of-attachment to the Internet. [14 Jan 2008]
Effect of Mobile Station's Speed on Vertical Handoff Detection Delay
White Paper Using a WLAN-GPRS hybrid network model, the effect of mobile station's speed on vertical handoff detection delay is analysed, through simulation and mathematical approaches. WLAN technology is expected to complement cellular wide area technology... [21 Nov 2005]
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]
An Adaptive Multipath Protocol for Efficient IP Handoff in Mobile Wireless Networks
White Paper 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... [01 Aug 2007]
