Fast Client-Based Connection Recovery for Soft WLAN-to-Cellular Vertical Handoff

Wireless local area network (WLAN)-to-cellular vertical handoff (VHO) involves time-consuming procedures that may significantly disrupt real-time communication. When a soft handoff is anchored by an enterprise private branch exchange (PBX)/gateway, handoff execution can take several seconds due to the time required to establish the cellular-to-PBX call leg. This situation is compounded by the fact that WLAN coverage may sometimes be lost far …
