Abstract :
The IEEE 802.16e/WiMAX standards introduced the micro and macro-mobility capabilities as a promising technology. While the procedures for mobility management are defined, the decision on performing the handover is left to the developers. The paper proposes a SIP-based solution for terminal mobility and real-time applications, using SIP and cross-layer interactions to improve the hard HO in WiMAX.
