  Abstract

In this paper, we propose a wireless network discovery scheme which support effective device power management by employing battery efficient network scanning procedure. Multi-mode terminals need to discover other wireless systems, above all, to execute an inter-system handover in the environment of heterogeneous wireless networks. The existing methods introduced in some recent research reports have certain shortcomings, such as battery power consumption increased by frequent modem activation, or the multi-mode terminal's inability to promptly discover wireless systems. We propose a scheme in which multi-mode terminals more quickly and accurately discover other wireless systems than previous schemes, while consuming minimum power. It also proves that the scheme has better performance by comparing it with the existing schemes.
