Abstract :
This paper describes a solution for implementing the Media Independent Information Service, later referred to as MIIS, described in IEEE 802.21 standard. First we present the previous work towards defining a complete system capable of realizing a vertical handover according to the standard. Next we detail the MIIS general architecture, the information gathering procedures and considerations about the data format used in communicating. The last section presents a typical usage scenario and the advantages of implementing MIIS.
