Design and Implementation for Wired/wireless Seamless Handoff

유/무선 Seamless 핸드오프를 위한 설계 및 구현

This paper proposes design and implementation for Seamless Handoff method between adapters in a system environment where both wired and wireless adapters are present First of all, by settingLayer 2 address of wired adapter to Layer 2address of wireless adapter, then generate virtual adapter on the above layer to make these two adapters operate on an IP address. Under the condition, when wired communication via the wired adapter gets disconnected while in service, wireless handoff occurs by mapping information on the wireless adapter to the virtual adapter. According to the method proposed in this paper, continuous session can be obtained even when handoff between wired and wireless adapters occurs at lower level in an application where both IP address and Port address are used to maintain session since If address does not change.
