Performance increment of smooth handoff using gateway FA at ad.hoc network

This study researched on performance increment using gateway FA to reduce delay factor of smooth handoff to the maximum level in mobile IP supporting mobility of IP address in PDA and laptop. In this study analyses of transmission delay and throughput on the performance of previous methods were carried out using NS-2 and performance of all FA buffer and gateway FA also was measured to identify the performance increment level compared to the previous methods. The result showed that GFA, which performs gateway function, had binding reduction effect at over 25 sec. of handoff interval.
