The aim of the all-IP architecture in third-generation wireless networks is to allow operators to deploy IP technology in delivering third-generation services, that is, an architecture based on packet technologies and IP telephony for simultaneous real-time and non-real-time services. We present a new handoff management scheme that utilizes simultaneous multiple bindings in IP-based 3G wireless networks. The proposed handoff scheme minimizes packet losses and incurs negligible delays during handoff. We also present an adaptive resource allocation scheme that allocates connection resources to incoming calls depending on the network conditions. The resources accumulated by bandwidth degradation for on-going calls are utilized to minimize dropping probability of handoff calls and blocking probability of new calls.
