Abstract:
A method of providing a wireless communication link to a mobile communication device. The method comprises providing a first wireless communication link by a first WiFi access point (AP) to the mobile device, where the first AP broadcasts a first SSID, establishing a communication session between the mobile device and a destination communication device via the first wireless communication link, determining locations of the mobile device by a server, and, based on a change of the locations of the mobile device, sending a WiFi handoff command by the server to a second WiFi AP, where the WiFi handoff command comprises authentication credentials of the mobile device. The method further comprises providing a second wireless communication link based on the authentication credentials by a second AP to the mobile device, where the second AP broadcasts the first SSID and the communication session is continued over the second wireless communication link.
