Title
Multi-decision handover mechanism over wireless relay networks
Abstract
With the popularity of wireless networks, it needs to support user's mobility cross different base stations, hence, the handover mechanism becomes an important issue. When the user frequently moves between two cells, it will occur the Ping-Pong effect that increases the delay time and reduces the efficiency of system. In this paper, we proposed a new handover mechanism over relay networks to reduce the unnecessary handover. It uses the value of signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) and the parameter of distance to make handover decision. The simulation results indicate the proposed handover mechanism can reduce more than 8% of the handover number in average in comparison to the competing method in the best case.
