This paper deals with a cellular network whose structure consists of a set of mobile stations and of a ground base station network with fixed access points. Each base station, characterized by a certain coverage area, exchanges data packet switch mobile stations over a common radio channel. Mobiles flowing along the road within the coverage area of a groundstation must coordinate their access to the common channel. Within each cell, the authors use the Access Virtual Channel-Radionet-Independent Stations Algorithm multiple access protocol. whose main feature is the adaptivity to the channel load variations, which may be due to changes in vehicle density and packet generation rates. They have designed and studied three 'hand-off' techniques aimed at optimizing the cellular packet radio network performances by minimizing the link loss probability during the transition of a station from a cell to the next one, even in the case of heavy traffic.
