The key idea of this paper is to a use cross-layer triggering concept in order to control the
vertical handover (VHO) in heterogeneous networks. Current mobility management …

In heterogeneous wireless networks, handoff can be separated into two parts: horizontal
handoff (HHO) and vertical handoff (VHO). VHO plays an important role to fulfill seamless …

The applications of wireless local area networks (WLAN's) are highly accepted by mobile
terminals (MT's) due to their high transmission bandwidth and reduced costs. However, in …

Due to a deployment of different networks technologies such as 3G (UMTS, IEEE 802.11),
4G (LTE, IEEE 802.16) and 5G, the users have the opportunity to be connected to Internet at …

Moving to the next generations of mobile networks means to deal with multi-heterogeneous
network dense deployment as there will be no single network type capable of meeting all the …

We propose a bio‐inspired model for making handover decision in heterogeneous wireless
networks. It is based on an extended attractor selection model, which is biologically inspired …

In the current telecommunication environment, network operators are trying to cope with a
significant increase in data traffic by adopting different solutions to expand their network …

With fastWith fast growing traffic, high-density small cells (SC) deployment is envisioned in
5G network under the macrocell (MC) coverage area. This will improve the capacity and the …

In heterogeneous networks, mobile terminals require to be always best connected, and
handover decision approaches are relevant to attain efficient mobility solutions for mobile …

With the development of 4G mobile telecommunication systems, providing users with the
convenience of a seamless continuous connection is not enough anymore. Users want to be …
