Abstract The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has specified the 5G Authentication
and Key Agreement (5G AKA) protocol for handover authentication. However, this protocol is …

An important aspect of managing multi access point (AP) IEEE 802.11 networks is the
support for mobility management by controlling the handover process. Most handover …

In order to solve the problems in the process of vertical handover in heterogeneous wireless
networks, We propose a mobile handover mechanism applied to the SDN (Software Defined …

The handoff process in WiFi networks has a very important role to provide continuity of the
service to wireless users where the access points (APs) are in numerous numbers. In …

Software Defined Network (SDN) is a revolutionary networking paradigm system in which
network control plane is separated from data plane and assigned to a devoted software …

Abstract Femto Access Points (FAP) and Device-to-Device (D2D) communications have
recently been considered as potential candidates for 5G network densification and cell-edge …

In this paper, we proposed a multiple attributes handover algorithm based on fuzzy logic.
The algorithm utilizes received signal strength (RSS), forecasting RSS, delay, network loads …

Despite the planned installation and operations of the traditional IEEE 802.11 networks, they
still experience degraded performance due to the number of inefficiencies. One of the main …

Software-Define Networking (SDN) is a new generation architecture for managing and
controlling the network in cost-effective and efficient way. This architecture segregates the …

In Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) with more than one access point (AP), the handoff
process plays a crucial role to guarantee the user service continuity. Usually initiated by the …
