Abstract
A handoff control method includes the following: Handoff status information of a first mobile host (MH) is collected. The handoff status information includes at least one parameter that is used for representing a status that happened during the first handoff from a source access point (AP) to a target AP. A handoff policy is generated based on the handoff status information, and used for optimizing a handoff process of an MH associated with the source AP. The handoff process occurs after the first MH is handed off from the source AP. The handoff policy is sent to the MH associated with the source AP, so the MH associated with the source AP can perform the handoff according to the handoff policy. A handoff control device and a system represent technical solutions that optimize the handoff process, reduce a total time delay of handoff, and increase a likelihood of successful handoff.
