Abstract :
We describe the dominant handoff algorithms applied in vehicular Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) networks at 60 GHz, i.e., the Virtual Cellular Zone (VCZ) and the Moving Extended Cell (MEC), respectively. We also introduce the Moving Extended NCells (MENC) algorithm, in order to examine if it could be also a dominant candidate for high-speed vehicular 60GHz RoF networks. Finally, we present the performance evaluation analysis regarding the afore-mentioned handoff algorithms, based on the corresponding simulation tests´ results.
