چکیده

The future Heterogeneous Wireless Network (HWN) is composed of multiple Radio Access Technologies (RATs) and domains, therefore, new Radio Resource Management (RRM) schemes and mechanisms are necessary to benefit from the individual characteristics of each RAT and to exploit the gain resulting from jointly considering the whole set of the available radio resources in each RAT. Vertical Handover (VHO) enables users to access several networks such as WLAN, WMAN, WPAN, and WWAN in parallel. It allows the applications even the real time application to be seamlessly transferred among different networks. In this paper, a decision support system is developed to address the VHO problem. This system combines fuzzy logic and ELECTRE, a MCDM algorithm, to the problem of VHO. This combination decreases the influence of the dissimilar, imprecise, and contradictory measurements for the VHO criteria coming from different sources. A performance analysis is done and the results are compared with traditional algorithms for VHO. These results demonstrate a significant improvement with our developed algorithm.

Ranking Projects Using the ELECTRE Method

Ranking and selecting projects is a relatively common, yet often difficult task. It is complicated because there is usually more than one dimension for measuring the impact of each project and more than one decision maker. This paper considers a real application of project selection for ECNZ, Northern Generation, using an approach called ELECTRE. The ELECTRE method has several unique features n...

A New Approach to Multi-criteria Decision Making (MCDM) Using the Fuzzy Binary Relation of the ELECTRE III Method and the Principles of the AHP Method

There are several methods for Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) such as multiple attribute utility theory (MAUT), the analytical hierarchy process (AHP), and Fuzzy AHP. However, these methods are compensatory optimization approaches for which bad score on some criteria can be compensated by excellent scores on other criteria. So, the Elimination and Choice Translating Reality III (ELECTRE I...

Spectrum Assignment in Cognitive Radio Networks Using Fuzzy Logic Empowered Ants

The prevalent communications networks suffer from lack of spectrum and spectrum inefficiency. This has motivated researchers to develop cognitive radio (CR) as a smart and dynamic radio access promised solution. A major challenge to this new technology is how to make fair assignment of available spectrum to unlicensed users, particularly for smart grids communication. This paper introduces an i...

On the relations between ELECTRE TRI-B and ELECTRE TRI-C and on a new variant of ELECTRE TRI-B

ELECTRE TRI is a set of methods designed to sort alternatives evaluated on several criteria into ordered categories. The original method uses limiting profiles. A recently introduced method uses central profiles. We study the relations between these two methods. We do so by investigating if an ordered partition obtained with one method can also be obtained with the other method, after a suitabl...
