The design and calculation of algorithm for optimizing vertical handover performance (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Khattab, O., & Alani, O. (2014, July). The design and calculation of algorithm for optimizing vertical handover performance. Presented at Communication Systems, Networks & Digital Signal Processing (CSNDSP), Manchester

In this paper, we address the problem of Vertical Handover (VHO) connection failure which occurs when a handover is initiated but a target network does not have sufficient resources to complete it. Thus it is important to identify Radio Access Techno... Read More about The design and calculation of algorithm for optimizing vertical handover performance.
