ABSTRACT:
A method for generating a media independent handover (MIH) trigger in a wireless local area network begins by sending a measurement report request message to a measurement entity in the network. The measurement entity takes the measurements and sends a measurement report response message to a medium access control (MAC) function. The MAC function evaluates the measurements and determines whether a handover condition exists, based on the measurements. The MAC function generates a MIH trigger if the handover condition exists.
