Abstract :
In this paper, we developed a loss-free handover scheme for IEEE802.16e based wireless broadband access networks. Minimized the handover delay and eliminates packet losses during handover. By integrating MAC and network layer handovers efficiently. Results of simulations show that it achieves loss-free packet delivery without packet duplication and increases system throughput significantly.
