  • Abstract
    This paper describes an optimization of the handover process over WLAN networks, which allows nodes to simultaneously attach to more than one access point and thus avoid packet loss. The document also contains a description of protocol semantics specific to that optimization, a theoretical evaluation and performance results acquired by simulation
