Handoff will become an increasingly important issue in mobile phone communications,
especially in microcellular systems with the increase of handoff traffic between cells. Many …

Handoff is an important issue in cellular mobile telephone systems. Recently, studies that
question the validity of the assumption of handoff arrivals being Poissonian have appeared …

Handoff is an indispensable operation in wireless networks to guarantee continuous,
effective, and resilient services during a mobile station (MS) mobility. Handoff counting …

The continuation of an active call is one of the most important quality measurements in
cellular systems. Handoff process enables a cellular system to provide such a facility by …

Many aspects of handoff traffic analysis for third generation wireless communications
networks are still not fully understood. In this paper, we study the handoff traffic distribution …

This paper deals with the performance analysis of two prioritized handoff schemes for
mobile cellular networks in which handoff attempts finding all channels busy are queued for …

The handoff algorithm employed in a cellular network has a significant impact on overall
network performance, but evaluation of handoff performance has for the most part been …

The fraction of calls that are blocked due to unavailability of channels, is a significant Quality
of Service measure for mobile communications. In this paper, a scheme that gives in heavy …

Handover request queueing has been extensively analyzed as a handover protection
scheme for future cellular networks. In this frame, however, while channel holding time …

In this paper, we report our recent work on closed form solutions to the blocking and
dropping probability in wireless cellular networks with handoff. First, we develop a …
