Abstract
Provided is a method for handover between heterogeneous networks using a link trigger signal in a multi-interface mobile router. The method includes: maintaining a state of a second network access interface in a sleep state, activating a first network access interface, receiving and transmitting the first network service to a subordinate node in the mobile router located in a first network; when the mobile router senses a second network link-up trigger signal while moving to the second network, changing the state of the second network access interface into an active state and performing handover; and receiving a second network service through the activated second network access interface in the mobile router performing the handover and transmitting the second network service to the subordinate node.
