Virtual Access Points for Transparent Mobility in Wireless LANs

Abstract: International audienceMobility management in WiFi networks is still an open issue today: there is no standard method defined, and client station mobility is handled either via proprietary protocols, or simply by re-association. However, managing mobility in an infrastructure network is utterly important for several reasons: controlling delay and jitter in communications, managing clients from the network, optimizing performance. We propose the concept of virtual access points to manage mobile station in infras… Show more

“…V Mhatre et al [5] used it for embedding information about all the active links of a node in there proposed routing algorithm for mesh networks. Y Grunenburger et al [4] used it for allowing AP's to inform its neighbors about the signal quality. This signal quality was piggybacked on the beacon frames.…”
