In this paper, an Adaptive Handover Margin algorithm based on Novel Weight Function
(AHOM-NWF) is proposed through Carrier Aggregation operation in Long Term Evolution …

The carrier aggregation (CA) technique and Handover Parameters Optimization (HPO)
function have been introduced in LTE‐Advanced systems to enhance system performance …

Although Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE‐Advanced) system has benefited from
Carrier Aggregation (CA) technology, the advent of CA technology has increased handover …

The increasing demand for wireless networks calls for the use of heterogeneous networks in
order to fulfil user requirements. Mobility management is considered one of the important …

Classical wireless cellular networks configure semi-static values of handover decision
parameters, which are usually been modified manually by the operator at a certain time …

Although various carrier aggregation deployment scenarios (CADSs) have been introduced
in the LTE‐Advanced system, issues related to insufficient eNB coverage that leads to low …

Handover is one of the key operations in the mobility management of long-term evolution
(LTE)-based systems. Hard handover decided by handover margin and time to trigger (TTT) …

The optimization of handover (HO) parameters for in-building systems is investigated in this
paper. We proposed a novel methodology that provides in-building base stations with the …

In this paper, a generalized model is proposed to analyze the impact of propagation
environment and velocity on the handover performance of user equipment (UE) for long term …

Inbound handover (HO) or hand-in is done when the user equipment (UE) performs HO from
a macrocell (MC) to a small cell (SC), while the outbound HO or handout is done when a UE …
