Abstract :
The paper analyzes two handoff algorithms, i.e., the traditional handoff (THO) and the moving extended cell (MEC), respectively, both used in Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) networks at 60 GHz. The mathematical analysis and the corresponding simulation study are also presented, showing that MEC is a strong candidate handoff algorithm for packet loss minimization in high-mobility RoF networks at 60 GHz.
