Fuzzy Logic Based Handoff Controller for Microcellular Mobile Networks
Dayal Chandra Sati, P.Sirish Kumar, Yogesh Misra · 2011
In mobile cellular systems the handoff is a very important process, which refers to a mechanism that transfers an ongoing call from one Base Station (BS) to another. The performance of the handover mechanism is very important to maintain the desired Quality of Service (QoS). The conventional handoff decisions are normally signal strength based, which are not suitable for modern small sized microcellular networks. In order to maintain reliable communication in microcellular mobile systems, new and better handoff algorithms must be needed to keep QoS, as high as possible. The purpose of this research work is to design an intelligent handoff controller, using fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic toolbox of MATLAB 7.6.0 is used for designing FIS.
