Region-Based Efficient Beam Handover Scheme in IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks
Abstract:
Seamless connectivity in wireless networks is critical for various applications. So, a dynamic beamforming antenna is utilized to improve wireless connectivity. However, using a dynamic beam steering scheme has a key problem when processing a handover between access points (APs). This paper proposed a dynamic beamforming handover (DBH) scheme using the relationship between beam pattern and topology information. Each AP preconfigures the neighbor list and tries to meet what candidate APs are available during handover process. Performance evaluations indicate that the handover latency can be significantly reduced by applying the proposed scheme and the network throughput can be enhanced.
