Handover adaptations for load balancing scheme in microcell / femtocell LTE network / Nurul Husna Md Yusoh

In the purpose of offering extensively higher data rates, higher systems throughput, and lower latency, the femtocell systems in 3 GPP LTE system has premeditate. In a large number of femtocells, there are too many prehandover and unnecessary handover processes frequently among femtocells may occur....
