Abstract
While Wireless Internet services were activated, many users got possible to use various Internet services without limitation in location. In particular, the demands to Wireless Internet Services are getting expanded because mobile devices that support high mobility are getting smarter. However, if a user uses various wireless networks, much limitation occurs in network setting when they move to another network. This is because there are few appropriate Handover Mechanisms to support Heterogeneous Network. So, this paper propose that Fast-Handover for Vertical Network Handover with MIH in PMIPv6 to support heterogeneous network and to reduce the handover latency time. Analysis result presented in this paper shows that by carefully selecting suitable system configuration model and parameters, suggestion has reduced latency time of 26% and packet losses of 90% (Avg.) at the maximum in comparison with original PMIPv6 handover.
