Abstract:
Multimedia applications have became more usable in recent years, since mobile broadband internet access became available. Additionally, the Session Initiation Protocol turned out to be the standard signaling protocol for Next Generation Mobile Networks. There is an increasing demand on solutions for seamless mobile communication. Two of the most importantservices are Voice and Video over Internet Protocol. This paper addresses issues for transferring an established session to another device without interruption as well as splitting multimedia streams over different devices. Finally, a description about the ongoing implementation of one transfer and one split mechanism for mobile phones is introduced.
