Abstract

The aim of the HURRICANE framework is to support seamless handovers between 3GPP, DVB, IEEE 802.11 and 802.16 networks. In this framework, the IEEE 802.21, Media-Independent Handover (MIH) [1] provides the basis for the handover-enabling functionality. In this paper, it will be described the effort taken in order to have a fully-blown IEEE 802.21 implementation with the addition of a Media-Independent Information Service server facility.
