Method for vertical handover in wireless communication system

摘要

A method of performing a vertical handover in a terminal of a wireless communication system includes generating a care-of-address (CoA) by using neighbor network information acquired from a media independent handover (MIH) server to perform the vertical handover, transmitting handover request information and the CoA to a serving network, confirming handover support information and CoA information of neighbor networks, which are received from the serving network, and determining a target network for performing the vertical handover by using the handover support information, and performing the vertical handover to the target network by using the CoA information.
