Abstract :
In this letter, we discuss mobile Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) for soft handover in the transport layer. From the experimentations on triggering rules for Add-IP and Primary-Change during the handover, it is shown that the aggressive Add-IP and conservative Primary-Change rules provide better throughput.
