-Uncontrollable development of wireless and mobile communication technology aims to provide the seamless continuous connection to access various wireless technologies and to have connection with the best network which provides the best quality of service (QoS). Each application requires different QoS, so the network selection may vary accordingly. To achieve this goal and to select the best network for a mobile terminal when moving from one network to another, it is necessary to have a good decision making algorithm which decides the best network for a specific application that the user needs based on QoS parameter. This paper presents an overview of handoff types, handoff process, and classification of vertical handoff, parameters required, existing work and the comparison table.
