IEEE WAVE 기반의 무선 네트워크를 위한 핸드오버 프로토콜
A Handover Protocol for the IEEE WAVE-based Wireless Networks
Abstract
The IEEE WAVE-based communication systems do not provide handover services since most of the application layer messages of a small amount containing text data that are related to safe driving. Multimedia data service such as web pages and CCTV video clips, however, require a seamless handover for continuation of a session via multiple RSUs. In this paper, we propose a new proactive handover protocol based on IEEE WAVE. According to the proposed handover protocol, the OBU notifies the old RSU of its departure from the coverage such that the old RSU forwards to the new RSU the data heading towards the OBU to be cached for the further delivery upon its entry into the new RSU's coverage. The simulation results are presented which shows the performance of the proposed protocol in terms of throughput, delivery ratio and handover delay.
