Abstract

In order to ensure proper quality of service for real-time communication in a mobile wireless Internet environment, it is essential to minimize the transient packet loss when the mobile host (MH) is moving between different cells (subnets) within a domain. This paper introduces application layer techniques to achieve fast handoff for real-time (RTP/UDP) multimedia traffic in a SIP-based signaling environment. These techniques are based on standard SIP components such as user agents and proxies and provide a network-independent solution suitable for application service providers.
