Mobility and signal strength- aware handover decision in mobile IPv6 based wireless LAN
Existing wireless networks aim to provide information communication services between mobile nodes. As a mobile node move between different radio networks, a handover process is needed to change its point of attachment to the predicted radio network. Since traditional (based on one metric Received Si...
