Adaptive UMTS Handover Control Algorithm in Third Generation Wireless Systems
Hung-Hui Juan, ChingYao Huang · 2006
Handover control algorithms have been designed initially to ensure a seamless migration in cellular systems. With a better understating of wireless systems and communication channels, instead of focusing only on the seamless migration process in wireless systems, the handover control designs have been shifted to the optimization of the required resources. In this paper, we will first describe the UMTS handover control algorithms for existing 3G wireless systems. A new adaptive UMTS handover control algorithm will be proposed to further optimize the required resources to meet the design challenges in mobility environment.
