Abstract:
Future wireless networks are expected to consist of different types of wireless networks such as code division multiple access (CDMA) networks and public wireless local area networks (WLANs). The integrated network will require vertical handoffs between different networks. In this letter, we propose vertical hard- and soft-handoff algorithms and evaluate their performance in commercial wireless networks.
