Abstract
Recently, wireless networks require an efficient handover scheme due to increase of mobile devices. But Bluetooth has several problems to support the efficient handover, which are the additional increase of signaling traffic and long time of the initial setup processes of inquiry and paging processes. This paper suggests an efficient Soft Handover method for Bluetooth (eSoHoB), which reduces the eplased time of the inquiry and paging process and supports a soft handover using the anticipation method. This paper implements the eSoHoB using two Bluetooth hardware modules and a testbed to be able to receive streaming data while a Bluetooth terminal is moving. This paper measures handover delays and the operation of the soft handover to verify the proposed mhthod.
