As networks are becoming larger and more complex, solutions that simplify network operation and management are urgently needed. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a state-of-the-art paradigm addressing this issue. While SDN is basically very general, in this work, networking performance related to the handover events is addressed in SDN-based wireless networks. For the investigation, Mininet WiFi, an extension to Mininet as the most popular SDN emulation environment, is used. Two association methods supported in Mininet Wi-Fi are Strongest-Signal-First (SSF) and Least-Loaded-First (LLF). These two methods has their own mechanisms. In this research, an experiment is conducted to observe how association control works in handover scenario. A performace analysis of transfer, jitter, and packet loss are also discussed. The result of the experiment is LLF gains better performance than SSF mode in every sub-scenario.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Association control,Association methods,Handover,Mininet,Network operations,Performance evaluations,Software defined networking (SDN),State of the art[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]handover,Mininet Wi-Fi,SDN,Wi-Fi association[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICWT.2017.8284148[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
