  • Abstract
    This paper presents an implementation of seamless vertical handover between WLAN and CDMA2000 networks using the recently proposed protocol- mobile stream control transmission protocol (mSCTP). A testbed based on a Linux platform has been set up to test the handover performance. In experiments, the handover delay is measured when the mobile node moves into and away from a WLAN. The results show the handovers are both soft and smooth.
