An Effective Video Streaming Method for Video on Demand Services in Vertical Handoff

Vertical Handoff VH is required to achieve anywhere and anytime internet access in the fourth Generation (4G) network providing interoperability between Universal Mobile Telecommunications System UMTS and Wireless LAN WLAN. However, video data can be lost due to latency caused by VH. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an...

Comparison Between Vertical Handoff Decision Algorithms for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

The next generation wireless networks will support the vertical handoff mechanism in which users can maintain the connections when they switch from one network to another (e.g., from IEEE 802.11b to CDMA 1xRTT network, and vice versa). Although various vertical handoff decision algorithms have been proposed in the literature recently,...

Multi Layer Rules Based Framework for Vertical Handoff

Seamless interoperability between two dissimilar networks require handoff from one network to the other. Such handoffs are known as vertical handoffs. Vertical handoff introduces a shift in the approach to handoffs. It deals with handoffs between dissimilar networks, such as from an access point to a base station or vice...
