Efficient seamless handoff over heterogeneous wireless networks

Users using mobile terminal want to receive seamless service anywhere, anytime. In order to satisfy user's needs a communication between heterogeneous networks has to provide seamless service. Now a commercialized IMT-2000 is used with both WCDMA and CDMA together. Because asynchronous WCDMA and synchronous CDMA use different technology in their interface and traffic management, communication between the two networks can become disconnected. IP a mobile terminal swerves from the handoff area before handoff completion, packet loss and service disconnection will happened. In this paper, we propose a handoff scheme to provide seamless service, when mobile terminal moves from the WCDMA to the CDMA. And we prove that the proposed handoff scheme provide seamless service.
