“…These decision schemes include the well-known and famous decision modelling such as TOSPSIS [12], grey relational analysis (GRA) [13], Vlsekriterijumska optimizacija I KOmpromisno Resenje (VIKOR) [14], and ELimination Et Choix Traduisantla REalite (ELECTRE) [15], and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) [16]. In the case of TOPSIS, an optimal network is selected for handover if it is closer to the ideal situation from other networks.…”

“…One of the main advantages of this integration is that an MN stores its previous experience of handover for future handovers. A model based on the integration of a fuzzy system with ELECTRE decision model has been proposed in [19]. The author uses different parameters for making decision such as resource availability, MN's velocity, security level, etc.…”

Providing a continuous connection in heterogeneous wireless networks is a challenging job. Traditional approaches are mainly concerned to specific scenarios. These approaches are also suffering from different problems like ping-pong effect, inappropriate handover triggering, etc. Therefore, to provide a generic connectivity in heterogeneous wireless networks, we proposed a vertical handover decision scheme. The proposed scheme performs handover triggering using simple additive weighting on the data rate of a point of attachment (PoA). The user calculates the data rate required by different applications and then compares it with a predefined threshold. Similarly, the network selection is performed using Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) decision model on different parameters such as delay, jitter, bit error rate, packet loss ratio, communication cost, response time, and network load. The PoA of a network calculates its rank using TOPSIS and sends it to the user. The user then selects the network with the highest rank. The proposed vertical handover decision scheme is compared with grey relational analysis and analytical hierarchy process in the context of handover rate, failed handovers, packet loss ratio, and throughput. The proposed scheme is tested in different mobility scenarios, and it is shown that our scheme provides superior performance over the existing schemes.

“…The MADM deals with the problem of choosing an alternative from a set of alternatives which are characterized in terms of their attributes where the most popular classical MADM methods are: [16,17,18,19,20], [21] which have been surveyed in [3], [22] and [2], respectively. Also, a comparison between MADM methods has been presented in [23,7].…”

The Next Generation Wireless Systems (NGWSs) consists of heterogeneous wireless access networks such as UMTS, Wi-Fi, WiMAX and LTE where Mobile Users (MUs) can access these technologies and services using a single device. This device is equipped with multiple radio interfaces include devices capable of supporting multiple Radio Access Technologies (RATs) by incorporating several interface cards and appropriate software for switching between multiple access systems (Vertical Handover (VHO)). The Access Network Selection (ANS) regarding the transferring between different RATs is based on network conditions, mobile conditions, user preferences, Quality of Service (QoS) requirements and service cost. This paper overviews VHO approaches proposed in the literature and classify them into three categories based on ANS methods for which their characteristics are presented. Finally, a conclusion about who is a dominant ANS method for seamless VHO is given.

In heterogeneous wireless networks (HWNs), a scheme called Joint Call Admission Control (JCAC) is demanding for deciding whether or not an incoming service request will be accepted. In this paper, we propose an optimal JCAC policy for HWNs based on semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) to achieve the optimal resource management scheme in terms of minimal the network cost and acquire the required quality of service (QoS) of mobile user. Furthermore, an improved value iteration algorithm with multi-dimensional threshold structure is presented. Numerical results show that the proposed JCAC policy is the overall optimal policy. The proposed algorithm is effective for high QoS performance by reducing the probabilities of dropping and blocking calls. The optimal JCAC policy is ratified by the current trend in the design of next generation wireless networks (NGWNs).
