The Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication has the potential to connect millions of devices in the near future. Since they agree on this potential, several standard organizations need to focus on improved general architecture for M2M communications. Currently, there is a lack of consensus to improve the general feasibility of M2M communication. Heterogeneous Mobile Ad hoc Networks (HetMANETs) can normally be considered appropriate for M2M challenges. When a mobile node (MN) moves inside a HetMANET, various challenges including a selection of the target network and energy efficient scanning take place, which need to be addressed for efficient handover. To cope with these issues, we propose a handover management scheme that efficiently initiates a handover process and selects an optimal network. Our proposed scheme is composed of two phases, i.e., i) the MN performs handover triggering based on the optimization of the Receive Signal Strength (RSS) from an access point/base station (AP/BS), and, ii) the network selection process is carried out byconsidering different parameters such as delay, jitter, velocity, network load, and energy consumption by the network interface. Moreover, if there are more networks available, then the MN selects the one that can provide the highest quality-of-service (QoS) using the Elimination and Choice Expressing Reality (ELECTRE) decision model. The performance of the proposed scheme is compared in the context of the number of handovers, average stay-time of an MN in the network, and energy consumption against periodic and adaptive scanning. Similarly, a two-state Markov model is defined that efficiently distribute the number nodes on the available access points and base stations. The proposed scheme efficiently optimizes the handoff related parameters and outperforms existing schemes.

Uninterrupted internet services are need of the day and their demand will increase in future by manifold. However, providing uninterrupted services under heterogeneous networks environment is a challenging task. One of the major challenges in this regard is the management of handover system between various networks. This paper proposes a handover management scheme by dividing the total coverage area of the base station (BS) or access point (AP) into three different zones (strong, average, and weak zones), respectively, on the basis of receive signal strength indication (RSSI) to provide fast vertical handover support in heterogeneous wireless networks. Furthermore, a new event is proposed and added to the IEEE 802.21: media independent handover (MIH) standard to integrate the functionality of multithreshold. The proposed scheme is implemented in NS2 and it is shown that our scheme provides a superior performance over the previous methods used for similar purposes.

“…In [20] Bae et al proposed to use MIH signaling to support a triggering mechanism for the management of vertical handovers based on the data rate.

Mobile communication systems are currently being developed with the aim of providing peak data rates up to 20 times higher to those of Long Term Evolution (LTE)-Advanced Release 10. However, this performance improvement is often far from being the experimented performance by all users, especially, for those users who are far from the base station. In this sense, there exists a consensus within the international scientific community on the fact that the best way to achieve the same quality for all users is with the use of heterogeneous networks composed of macrocells, microcells, femtocells, and relays.This dissertation addresses the use of mobile relays to provide service to users who are out-of-coverage or undergo low data rates as they are located at the cell-edge. Mobile relaying is a natural extension of the fixed relay in which users who are in the idle state could retransmit signals received from other transmitters to enhance signal quality and consequently data rates. The use of mobile relaying could make the data boost required by the future Fifth Generation (5G) affordable.Our investigations employ a simulation platform that includes link-level and system-level simulations. This dissertation focuses on proposing and evaluating new techniques that manage the use of the mobile relay in the new generation cellular networks. In particular, the dissertation studies mobile relaying from two complementary points of view.The first point of view investigates the mobile relay management at the network level through a signaling protocol known as Media Independent Handover (MIH). The main idea of the proposed mechanism is to use this signaling to connect the base station and the user in one of the following two manners. In the former, both entities are connected directly through the xG (x= 2, 3, 4, 5) wireless network. In the latter, there exists an xG connection between the base station and the mobile relay and another one between the mobile relay and the user through an IEEE 802.11 local wireless network. The investigations in this Thesis aim at finding a trade-off between using multiple mobile relays and reducing signaling overhead. i ABSTRACTThe second point of view deals with mobile relying integration at the air interface level. It consists in detecting, proposing, and evaluating new transmission techniques that solve the drawbacks derived from coherent detection. As with point-to-point systems, employing multiple antennas in a cooperative system can significantly improve the spectral efficiency of the systems with only one transmit antenna assuming that the channel state information is available at the receiver. However, performing a coherent detection in a network assisted by relays consumes much more resources than a point-to-point network since the coherent detection requires the channel estimation of source-relay, relaydestination, and source-destination links. In this Thesis, the proposed solution is to use transmission techniques that do not need the channel knowledge to perform the detection. ...
