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 …

In recent years, many research works have focused on vertical handoff (VHO) decision
algorithms. However, evaluation scenarios in different papers are often quite different and …

The emergence of 5G communication systems will not replace existing radio access
networks but will gradually merge to form ultra-dense heterogeneous networks. In …

In this paper, we propose a SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio), AHP (Analytic
Hierarchy Process) and information Entropy weight method based TOPSIS (SAE-TOPSIS) …

Wireless networks are passing through a transition phase for the past few years now and
this transition is giving a way towards the convergence of all IP-based networks to form the …

Next generation wireless communications will integrate multiple wireless access networks,
including WLAN and WWAN. Vertical handoff decision plays an important role in …

Vertical handover decision (VHD) algorithms are essential components of the architecture of
the forthcoming Fourth Generation (4G) heterogeneous wireless networks. These algorithms …

In this paper, we propose the signal strength ratio (SSR) based vertical handoff (VHO)
algorithms and the averaged received signal strength (ARSS) based VHO algorithms for …

The next generation (4G) wireless network is envisioned as a convergence of different
wireless access technologies providing the user with the best anywhere anytime connection …

Wireless networking is becoming an increasingly important and popular way of providing
global information access to users on the move. One of the main challenges for seamless …
