The Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) said that it held working group meetings of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.21 on standardization of seamless mobile service from June 13-15 in Korea. The meeting was participated by standardization organizations and major players in the industry from the U.S., Japan, Canada and Singapore to finalize the first draft specification version for Media Independent Handover(MIH) protocols and seamless handover scenario, said the ETRI.
The IEEE 802.21 working group currently is conducting standardization of the MIH to ensure seamless mobile services between cellular, WiFi, and WiBro networks.
The ETRI said, “The meeting was held at a critical juncture before the sponsor ballot in July 2007. Participants gave the final touch to the MIH during the meeting.”
