Study on Transport Layer Handover using SCTP
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we perform initial study of SCTP performance in order to evaluate the idea of soft handover in the transport layer. We discuss two different aspects: the influence of the point between two adjacent Access Points to trigger the handover, and a set of triggering rules based on radio signal strength. From the experiments on triggering rules it was shown that the best trade-off between average throughput and signalling overhead is achieved for a slow add-IP and fast change-IP.

SCTP-multihoming for intra and inter-RAT data handover management
SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol) provides interesting features, as multihoming and multistreaming, to enhance information transport performances over air interfaces. Additional extensions have been proposed to adapt SCTP to wireless context (mSCTP: mobile SCTP). However, published approaches do not take into account channel state information during handover processes. The present wor...
متن کاملA Scheme of Primary Path Switching for Mobile Terminals using SCTP Handover
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new transport layer protocol for end-to-end data transport. SCTP can be used to support soft handover for mobile terminal with the help of the SCTP multi-homing feature. For SCTP handover, a mobile terminal is required to switch the primary path to one of the promising alternative paths. This paper proposes a new scheme of the primary path switch...
متن کاملDelay-Centric Handover in SCTP
The introduction of the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) has opened the possibility of a mobile aware transport protocol. The multihoming feature of SCTP negates the need for a solution such as Mobile IP and, as SCTP is a transport layer protocol, it adds no complexity to the network. Utilizing the handover procedure of SCTP, the large bandwidth of WLAN can be exploited whilst in the...
متن کاملHistory based Handover Broker Scheme for SCTP
This paper presents history based broker handover scheme for SCTP (stream control transmission protocol) in order to minimize the handover latency by the ping pong behavior of mobile node. SCTP is alternate protocol to TCP in the transport layer. It has multi-homing feature which provides the mobile node with dual interfaces to minimize the packet loss during handover in the overlapped region. ...
متن کاملAnalysis of SCTP Handover by Movement Patterns
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new end-to-end transport protocol, which can be used to support the mobility of mobile terminals. This paper describes a framework of SCTP handover and analyzes the handover latency for the single-homing mobile terminals. We then show the experimental results of the SCTP handover in terms of the handover latency and throughput for the two differe...
