Introduction of Handover Manager for Better Handover Latency and Handover Throughput during Leo Satellite Handover. International Journal of Computer Applications. 42, 15 ( March 2012), 47-52.

LEO satellite has an important role in global communication system. They have advantages like low power requirement and lower end-to-end delay, efficient frequency spectrum utilization between satellites and spotbeams over MEO and GEO satellites. So in future they can be used as a replacement of modern terrestrial wireless networks. There are a lot of handover techniques for LEO satellites like seamless handover (SeaHO-LEO) ,PatHO-LEO . In our proposed work we have suggested a new handover technique for SeaHO-LEO by introducing a Handover Manager (HM) during the handover process and by simulation we have also shown that it a better approach by comparing it with other existing handover techniques as it reduces the handover latency, propagation delay, call blocking probability more than any other technique.
