Adaptive Hierarchical Handoff Optimization Scheme for Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract: This paper proposes a Mobile IP Handoff optimization scheme for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. In the scheme, a complete solution is provided; and handoff can be effectively controlled, the network business environment can be real-time detected; the target network, the handoff type and time can be accurately judged. In addition, the handoff performance of mobile IP will be largely improved. From the theoretical and simulative perspectives, the paper analyzes the performance parameters, including the mobility handoff cost, the mobility handoff delay time and packet loss rate, and the analytical results show that the performance of the scheme is better than other schemes.
