            Abstract : 
An active handoff decision strategy is proposed to improve the handoff performance in aviation data link. According to this strategy, the high-quality data link is maintained timely. The VDLM2 models are created in Network Simulator version 2 (NS2) environments. The end-to-end delay and signal quality are analyzed. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed strategy achieves better handoff performance.
