    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a link layer handoff apparatus and method for coping with the existing packet-loss problem. SOLUTION: An intermediate buffer management layer (IBML) (201, 211) is introduced below a third layer of an OSI-based communications interface. The IBML buffers copies of OSI layer-3 packets that is transmitted via lower layers (205, 215) of the communications interface and manages the buffer contents using indications the IBML receives from one or more of the lower layers. When the IBML receives indication that a link layer hard handoff is in progress, the IBML transfers the presently being buffered packets to a corresponding IBML (202, 212) in the target communications interface. This sub-layer-3 buffer transfer enables the target communications interface to reduce packet-loss associated with the hard handoff. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

    Abstract: Various embodiments are described to address the need for an apparatus and method that improves link layer handoff by addressing the packet-loss problem existing today. An intermediate buffer management layer (IBML) (201, 211) is introduced below layer 3 of an OSI-based communications interface. The IBML buffers copies of OSI layer 3 packets being transmitted via lower layers (205, 215) of the interface and manages the buffer contents using indications the IBML receives from one or more of the lower layers. When the IBML receives an indication that a link layer hard handoff is proceeding, the IBML transfers the presently buffered packets to a corresponding IBML (202, 212) in the target communications interface. This sub-layer 3 buffer transfer enables the target communications interface to reduce packet-loss associated with the hard handoff.
