The Mobile-initiated Handover Procedure operates as follows:

1) Mobile Node is connected to the serving network via Current PoS and it has access to MIH Information Server. 2) Mobile Node queries information about neighboring networks by sending the MIH_Get_Information Request to

Information Server. Information Server responds with MIH_Get_Information Response. This information query may be attempted as soon as Mobile Node is first attached to the network.

3) Mobile Node triggers a mobile-initiated handover by sending MIH_MN_HO_Candidate_Query Request to Serving PoS. This request contains the information of potential candidate networks.

4) Serving PoS queries the availability of resources at the candidate networks by sending MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resources Request to one or multiple Candidate PoSs.

5) Candidate PoSs respond with MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resources Response and Serving PoS notifies the Mobile Node of the resulting resource availability at the candidate networks through MIH_MN_HO_Candidate_Query Response.

6) Mobile Node decides the target of the handover and requests resource preparation by sending the MIH_MN_HO_Commit Request to Serving PoS.

7) Serving PoS sends MIH_N2N_HO_Commit Request to Target PoS to request resource preparation at the target network. Target PoS responds the result of the resource preparation by MIH_N2N_HO_Commit Response.

8) When the resource is successfully prepared, Serving PoS sends MIH_MN_HO_Commit Response to Mobile Node.

9) New layer 2 connection is established and a certain mobility management protocol procedures are carried out between Mobile Node and target network.

10) Mobile Node may send MIH_MN_HO_Complete Request to Target PoS. Target PoS sends MIH_N2N_HO_Complete Request to previous Serving PoS to release resource which was allocated to Mobile Node. After identifying that resource is successfully released, Target PoS may send MIH_MN_HO_Complete Response to Mobile Node.

The Network-initiated Handover Procedure operates as follows,

1) Serving PoS sends MIH_Get_Information Request to Information Server to get neighboring network information and Information Server responds by sending MIH_Get_Information Response.

2) Serving PoS triggers a network-initiated handover by sending MIH_Net_HO_Candidate_Query Request to Mobile Node. The MN responds through MIH_Net_HO_Candidate_Query Response which contains Mobile Node's acknowledgement about the handover and its preferred link and PoS lists.

3) Serving PoS sends MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resources Request to one or more Candidate PoSs to check the availability of the resource at candidate networks. Candidate PoS responds by sending MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resources Response to Serving PoS.

4) Serving PoS decides the target of the handover based on the available resource status at candidate networks.

5) Serving PoS sends MIH_N2N_HO_Commit Request to Target PoS to prepare resource at the target network. Target PoS responds the result of the resource preparation by sending MIH_N2N_HO_Commit Response.

6) After identifying that resource is successfully prepared, Serving PoS commands Mobile Node to commit handover toward the specified network type and PoA through MIH_Net_HO_Commit Request.

7) New layer 2 connection is established and Mobile Node sends MIH_Net_HO_Commit Response to Serving PoS.

8) After higher layer handover execution, Mobile Node may send MIH_MN_HO_Complete Request to Target PoS. Target PoS sends MIH_N2N_HO_Complete Request to previous Serving PoS to release resource which was allocated to Mobile Node. After identifying that resource is successfully released, Target PoS may send MIH_MN_HO_Complete Response to Mobile Node.
