 Just run MandrakeUpdate and choose the kernel as the package you wish to
 update. That's all there is to it.

  I heard someone mentioning they up ugraded from 2.2.15 kernel to 2.2.16

  could think of.  Could someone give me the complete link to a ftp site i
can
  download the RPM to update Kernel please?  BTW is there any major change

  I wouldn't trust Mandrake update with a kernel upgrade.

markany of the 7.1 update mirrors will have those rpm's,
like:

ftp://ftp.wtfo.com/pub/linux/mandrake/updates/7.1/RPMS/

for instance.  There are 50 more world wide and their URL's
can be found here:
