Optimization Handoff in Mobility Management for the Integrated Macrocell Femtocell LTE Network

Abstract

LTE is long - term evolution, is a standard for wireless communication of high - speed data for mobile phones and data terminals. In LTE, the Mobility Management Entity is responsible for the mobility management function. The mobility management entity is connected to a large number of evolved Node Base station that are grouped into the Tracking Areas. Mobility Management has key challenges Femtocell characterization / identification, Acces s Control, Network Discovery, Handover decision and Handover execution where going to focus on Handover. In Prominent cellular networks, the Handover decision phase performed at serving cell is based on signal quality measurement provided by the UE.
