Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks are playing an important role in current global mobile communications. An optimized handover scheme can greatly improve performance in respect of end-to-end communication delay and link bandwidth utilization of LEO satellite networks. Various handover schemes in LEO satellite networks are researched in this paper. Ground-satellite link handover and recomputing routes problem is analyzed in detail. Then, a link handover algorithm for LEO satellite mobile communication network is proposed. Simulation results show that the satellite link handover algorithm proposed has less end-to-end delay, and is more stable and customizable.
