To cut down on the influence generated by the WLAN handoff process, three parts of WLAN (wireless local area networks) handoff: handoff triggering, access point selection and the fast handoff algorithm are investigated. A fast handoff solution totally based on the station is proposed and it is composed of three parts: a handoff triggering mechanism based on dynamic threshold adjustment; an AP selection criterion based on probe delay; a fast handoff algorithm with differentiated channel selection and a dynamic cache. The station based solution is independent with AP's collaboration and avoids any changes in the IEEE 802. l l protocol. It is robust and has very good extensibility. Through tests and evaluation in a hotspot WLAN, the solution effectively reduces handoff latency and user experience of real-time applications is enhanced.展开更多

The idea is to utilize optimized IP multicasting handoff (based on PIM SM), which is triggered by CDMA layer 2 functionality. An IP based cellular network model with WCDMA FDD air interface and IP based packet traffic is adopted. No special network entities and signaling for handoff are added in our network model. The simulation results show that low delay and low packet lost rate can be obtained.展开更多

However, traditional handoff mechanisms employed at STAs introduce a few hundred milliseconds delay, which is far longer than what can be tolerated by some multimedia streams such as voice over Internet protocol(Vo IP), it is a challenging issue for supporting seamless handoff service in IEEE 802.11 networks. In this paper, we propose a pre-scan based fast handoff scheme within an IEEE 802.11 enterprise wireless local area network(EWLAN) environment. The proposed scheme can help STA obtain the best alternative AP in advance after the pre-scan process, and when the handoff is actually triggered, STA can perform the authentication and reassociation process toward the alternative AP directly. Furthermore, we adopt Kalman filter to minimize the fluctuation of received signal strength(RSS), thus reducing the unnecessary pre-scan process and handoffs. We performed simulations to evaluate performance, and the simulation results show that the proposed scheme can effectively reduce the handoff delay.展开更多
