Abstract
SeaMo, a vertical handoff (VHO) implementation based on our earlier paper [1] is tested with various mobility scenarios on a mobile IP testbed using MIPv6 and HIP protocols for mobility management. SeaMo considers various parameters like RSSI, link quality metric, end-to-end available bandwidth, battery power, network usage costs etc., in making the VHO decision. We present our experiences using SeaMo in mobility scenarios involving 3G and WLAN. We present a set of results which demonstrate the performance of SeaMo. We explain the need for considering a wide range of parameters from RSSI to network usage cost. We also highlight the impact of using the available battery power in decision making. In addition, we attempt to measure typical values of parameters such as network association delay, and handoff decision delay that impact the QoS.
