Problems solved by technology

[0009] One problem associated with handover is that L2 data packets may be delivered and / or received out of order at the application layer
If the handover is not well managed, packets from the source eBS may be delayed or dropped, causing communication to stop or not being able to reassemble full IP packets separately, thus resulting in IP packet loss
[0010] Another problem associated with handover is that L3 data packets may be delivered and / or received out of order at the application layer
At the application layer, out-of-order delivery of packets can adversely affect specific applications
For example, an application implementing TCP may be negatively affected because out-of-order packet delivery may cause a TCP receiver to generate duplicate acknowledgment (ACK) messages, and cause TCP to react by reducing its congestion window

Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems and computer program products are defined that provide for in-order deliver of data packets during hand-off. The aspects provide for in-order delivery at Forward Link Serving eBS / Data Attachment Point (FLSE / DAP) switch and Reverse Link Serving eBS / Data Attachment Point (RLSE / DAP) switch. As such, present aspects provide for significant improvement in the throughput of applications, such as applications relying on Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), during handoff, in such networks as Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB) and the like.
