Cross layer mobility management scheme for heterogeneous wireless networks

Abstract

The growing consumers demand for access to communication newlineservices anywhere and at anytime has started to accelerate the development of newlinetechnologies that would allow for the integration of various Wireless Access newlineTechnologies Users expect providers to offer seamless connection while newlineroaming between networks 4G systems will thus provide significantly high data newlinerates offering a variety of services and applications that was not previously newlinefeasible due to speed limitations Moreover they allow for global roaming newlineamong a diverse range of Mobile Access Networks In order to provide such newlinecontinuous service an operator might switch technologies according to the newlinelocation of the user and adapt the flow data rate to fit the desired network newlineperformance newline newline
