Abstract
We review the problem of network mobility and internetworking between
heterogeneous data networks and present an approach to the integration
of WLAN and cellular networks based on loose coupling and the use
of emerging mobility protocols. The handoff performance of such
approach is studied, at network and transport level, in a realistic
scenario along with the impact on global performance of transport
protocols. Finally, a method for eliminating any packet loss at the
network layer during the handoff is presented and evaluated.
