Provided is a handoff processing method including measuring a moving speed of a mobile terminal; measuring a size of a data packet generated in an application layer; measuring quality of a data transmission channel of the mobile terminal; calculating a maximum handoff delay time based on a relation between the moving speed and the data packet's size; estimating a handoff occurrence time point, based on a relation between a variation of the quality of the data transmission channel and the quality of the data transmission channel; and calculating a packet size and a moving speed of the mobile terminal that can minimize a delay due to a handoff occurrence by taking account of a handoff delay time according to the size of the data packet generated in the application layer and a moving speed of the mobile terminal into consideration, and providing the calculated packet size and moving speed.

Method for processing handoff

A system and method for performing a handover of a mobile station (MS) by considering Quality of Service (QoS) in a broadband mobile communication system. The method can include the steps of: receiving information about one or more neighbor base stations and reception strengths for the neighbor base stations from a Serving Radio Access System (RAS) currently communicating with the MS; extracting a value of a specific field from the received information about the neighbor base stations; combining the extracted value of the specific field with the reception strengths to thereby obtain combined values, and selecting a maximum value among the combined values; and transmitting a handover (handoff) request message to a base station corresponding to the selected maximum value. The system includes an MS that analyzes information about neighbor stations received in a Mobile Neighbor Base-station Advertisement (MOB_NBR_ADV) message to select a target RAS.

Disclosed is a method for managing mobility of mobile nodes between heterogeneous networks in an IP-based mobile communication system including a plurality of access nodes for providing an IP service to mobile nodes located in their service areas and a neighbor graph server for supporting connection to the access nodes by the mobile nodes. The method includes classifying the access nodes according to available service level; classifying the mobile nodes according to required service level, generating service level neighbor graphs each including access nodes supporting the same service level; generating a mapping table for mapping the mobile nodes to the neighbor graphs according to service level required by the mobile node; and supporting movement of a mobile node between networks using the neighbor graph and the mapping table.
