In this paper we investigate the potentiality and the benefits of a soft Vertical Handover
(VHO) mechanism, compared with the traditional hard approach. More specifically, we …

For vehicle-to-network communications, handover (HO) management enables vehicles to
maintain the connection with the network while transiting through coverage areas of different …

In a heterogeneous wireless network, handover techniques are designed to facilitate
anywhere/anytime service continuity for mobile users. Consistent best-possible access to a …

With the explosive increase in traffic volume in fifth-generation (5G) mobile wireless
networks, an ultra-dense network (UDN) architecture, composed of highly concentrated …

Currently, single wireless network technology can not satisfy all of the requirements of
mobile users at anywhere and anytime. Due to such requirements as QoS provision, cost …

Seamless and ubiquitous connections are the ultimate aims of 4G era. But due to high
mobility of users and different service class of applications, the connection failure rate is …

Handover (HO) is an essential process in mobile wireless networks to ensure that the user
equipment remains connected to the network while moving within the coverage of evolved …

Existing wireless networks aim to provide information communication services between
mobile nodes. When a mobile node MN moves between different radio networks, a …

The traditional A3 event-based HO algorithms are mainly designed for the low speed (< 30
m/s) networks. That aren't suitable for the high-speed railway scenario which the link quality …

Presently, the wireless mobile networks and devices are becoming increasingly popular to
provide users the access anytime and anywhere. The mobile systems are based on cellular …
