Load balancing algorithm by vertical handover for integrated heterogeneous wireless networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an adaptive resource management scheme for hybrid WWAN/WLAN is proposed. Based on proposed joint velocity and average received power (ARP) estimation algorithms, a novel vertical handoff (VHO) for efficient load balancing in multitier network is developed. Simulation results show that proposed scheme achieves significant improvements over conventional schemes.

متن کاملSeamless Vertical Handover for 4G Wireless Networks
A user in 4G network needs to have a seamless vertical handover so as to backward compatible with 3G and 2G wireless networks. In the existing methods the handover is performed based on user policies at each time and by using the neural network model. This is an issue for the handover based on the time needed to take the handover and the reduction in traffic-carrying capacity. To overcome these...

متن کاملMulti-criteria Vertical Handover Decision Algorithm in Heterogeneous Wireless Network
Vertical handover is essential to ensure service continuity in a heterogeneous network. Multi-criteria decision is proposed to reduce handover rate and optimizing usage of network resource compared to the conventional handover decision, which used single criteria. The algorithm is evaluated by assessing the performance in terms of number of handoff, load balance index, and network blocking prob...
