A Study of WLAN-to-Cellular Handover Using Measured Building-Exit Data
Abstract
Seamless wireless local area network (WLAN)-to-cellular handover can often be very difficult to achieve. A particularly bad scenario may occur when mobile users exit from indoor WLAN coverage to outdoors during active voice connections. In this paper, we report on a measurement-based study of this type of vertical handover (VHO) situation. The presented results come from measurements taken by traversing many indoor-to-outdoor paths for a large …
