Applying smart antenna on soft handover by simulation using OPNET / Noor Muhammad Abd. Rahman
Mobile networks allow users to access services while on the move so giving end users "freedom" in terms of mobility. However, this freedom does bring uncertainties to mobile systems. The mobility of the end users causes dynamic variations both in the link quality and the interference level...

Mobile networks allow users to access services while on the move so giving end users "freedom" in terms of mobility. However, this freedom does bring uncertainties to mobile systems.
