Description
In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), handoff is crucial for maintaining seamless communication as nodes move within the dynamic network topology. It involves protocols and procedures to transition a node’s communication session from one wireless link to another, despite changes in signal strength, topology, and available routes. Handoff encompasses detecting deteriorating signal quality, selecting a new neighbor node with better connectivity, and swiftly executing authentication and association protocols. Robust handoff mechanisms are vital to minimize latency, packet loss, and service disruption. Challenges include addressing node movements, resource constraints, and enhancing security during handovers. Ultimately, handoff in MANETs ensures uninterrupted communication flow, showcasing the network’s adaptability and resilience.
