Abstract

The interworking of CDMA2000 and WLAN networks has recently become a hot issue. Mobile nodes with multiple interfaces also look promising. However, provision of seamless handoff between heterogeneous networks with QoS guarantee remains a challenge. In this paper we propose a solution for smart seamless handoff with QoS guarantee for CDMA2000 and WLAN interworking. In our proposal, mobile nodes conduct the QoS negotiation with the new network during handoff. Based on the results, on QoS requirements of current sessions and on local policies, mobile nodes could transfer selected sessions to the new interface. Decisions are notified to the network side by mobile IP registration request messages
