Abstract : In the era of wireless technology, communication caters many advantages such as increased mobility, productivity and scalability. One challenge in Mobile IPv4 is getting continuous access to the Internet. In this paper, we propose a scanning algorithm that would scan for the nearest access point and establish the connection. After the connection establishment, the packet transmission starts. We understand that the mobile node is not stationary, and hence, the scanning algorithm runs in the background and finds the next nearest access point and establishes the connection with the new access point. Using this technique, we aim to reduce the handover latency to a good extent, thereby reducing the packet loss. This paper gives an analysis to scale down the handover latency and maximize the packet transmission.
