Abstract :
In this paper we propose a vertical handover decision algorithm from WLAN to WMAN or WWAN networks and develop analytical framework for it. The algorithm is based on the velocity of the mobile nodes and load of the networks. The results present that the proposed algorithm optimizes the load of WLAN, WMAN and WWAN networks, improves the optimal distribution of the vertical handover call arrival rates and blocking probability of the vertical handover calls from WLAN to WMAN or WWAN.
