A Vertical Handoff Decision Algorithm for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

Abstract: Abstract-One of the major design issues in heterogeneous wireless networks is the support of vertical handoff. Vertical handoff occurs when a mobile terminal switches from one network to another (e.g., from WLAN to CDMA 1xRTT). The objective of this paper is to determine the conditions under which vertical handoff should be performed. The problem is formulated as a Markov decision process. A link reward function and a signaling cost function are introduced to capture the tradeoff between the network resources … Show more

“…More concrete context information and improvements can be made in AHM by optimizing the context evaluation function in future work. The objective of research work presented in [5] is to determine the conditions under which vertical handoff should be performed for heterogeneous wireless networks. In this paper, they propose a vertical handoff decision algorithm for heterogeneous wireless networks.…”
