The existence of various heterogeneous networks in the current generation formulates high speed seamless coverage of all types of mobility. Cognitive radio (CR) networks are gleaning attention in the current generation of wireless networks and it is predicted that it will play a vital role in the field of communication in providing an interminable connection. When networks are integrated on the availability of many types, user plays a major role in selecting the best optimal desired network, since each network type has its standalone characteristics from the other. The handoff parameters can also be taken into account for determining ideal networks. This motivates to investigate the significance of various handoff parameters in terms of networks conditions on coadunation of Wifi and Wimax (WW) in CR networks and the existing integrated WW. The empirical results shows that cognitive based integrated WW networks are effective with minimal complexity in the handoff process compared to the existing integrated WW networks. The performance of various handoff parameters is analyzed on a network simulator and results indicate best performance is obtained in cognitive radio based integrated WW network compared to the existing method.
