Enhanced Mobile IP handoff using link layer information

Mohamed Alnas, Irfan Ullah Awan, D.R.W. Holton

Abstract

Network layer indications are not readily available upon a link change; therefore, general dependence on the network layer may introduce unnecessary delays due to network layer signaling for a simple link layer handoff. If information could be gathered at link layer to determine the need for network layer signaling, then both the delay and signaling load could be really improved over current standards.
