Description
Summary:Wireless systems have the capability to address broad geographic area without the costly infrastructure deployment. However, the main drawback resides in the bandwidth limitation and the coverage for single access point. The deployment of Femtocell as the promising wireless access technology becomes one of the possible solution. Femtocell is a popular method to extend mobile network coverage and enhance the system capacity. Femtocell also can be called home based stations, a small communication range, low power, low cost and other characteristics. In this project the handover procedure between macrocell and femtocell network is studied. We are proposing a new handover strategy between femtocell and macrocell for LTE-based network. This handover strategy will considers on received signal strength (RSS) and velocity (V). This strategy can avoid unnecessary handover and reduce handover failure.
