Abstract :
Mobility management in Wireless Sensor Networks is considered to be of an up most importance for today´s critical applications. In this paper, we present a soft mobility management solution where the mobility procedures are supported by fuzzy logic techniques. Our solution was designed and implemented to support the movement of a mobile worker inside an oil refinery area. The results show that the proposed system provides high reliability and control over the handover actions.
