            Abstract : 
We propose a resources reservation scheme pro-vides QoS for handing over stations within Mobile Multi-hop Relay Networks. The original time interval between two consecutive scans is divided into multiple intermediate time intervals for scan or transmission/reception. On the light of the intermediate scan results and depending on the "Mobility Context " of the SS or the mobile RS, the reservation amount on candidate target handover station(s) is updated in a fine-grained way. Simulation results show that our scheme results in relatively low resources waste ratio and induces relatively low overhead.
