A brief overview of intelligent mobility management for future wireless mobile networks

This paper has analysed the mobility management schemes in heterogenous cellular networks (HCNs) considering their power consumptions and network selection delays. The HCNs are the key enabler for 5G cellular network to ensure better user connectivity in ultra-dense networks. Large numbers of small cells are deployed under a macro-cell targeting network hot spot. However, ensuring seamless coverage to the mobile subscribers in motion is challenging in such networks. Frequent handoff between the cells with different bandwidth, throughput, latency, and coverage penetrations, significantly increases the signalling overhead in network. In this context, an efficient mobility management scheme plays a key role for the success of HCN technology. In this paper, a detailed behavioural study of mobility management schemes used in HCN has been provided. For mobile users in the network, the power consumption and network selection delay has been evaluated for k-tier architecture of HCN.

The progression to next generation networks is replete with abundant co-existing technologies. To comply with the Always Best Connected paradigm, several vertical handover decision approaches have been proposed in literature, using advanced techniques and tools. This paper discusses the application of soft computing techniques in the vertical handover decision making process with emphasis on the state of the art techniques. For a comprehensive evaluation, the algorithms are classified into three sets based on the soft computing technique used namely, Fuzzy Logic, Machine Learning and Evolutionary Algorithms and representative handover algorithms in each group are discussed. These papers are categorized in a well-defined structure to bring out their contribution, to underline the pretermitted notions, and to bring forth the emerging issues for future research. This paper summarizes the Soft Computing concepts and reviews its applications in candidate network selection, QoE enhancement, and reducing the unnecessary handovers.
