Abstract:Wireless information networks need to employ small radio cells to support large user populations. However, this will impose extra burden on network traffic control as a result of frequent handover behavior. Existing approaches to support a high handover rate still have cell loss and cell out-of-sequence penalty while the handover is in progress. This paper proposes a novel handover protocol that can avoid cell loss and guarantee cell sequence. It can enhance the performance of a microcellular asynchronous tran… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
