Abstract
In this paper we present a software demonstrator, for a system built following the directions described in the IEEE 802.21 (Media Independent Handover) standard, capable of completing an independent vertical handover. We first bring in front the field´s related work, and also propose methods of implementing the components described in the standard. The architecture and the functionalities of the demonstrator application are detailed, and we also mention aspects about surpassing the difficulties that rise during the implementation process.
