Improvement of the Vertical Handover Decision and Quality of Service in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks using Software Defined Network

Abstract

The development of wireless networks brings people great convenience. More state-of-the-art communication protocols of wireless networks are getting mature. People attach more importance to the connections between heterogeneous wireless networks as well as the transparency of transmission quality guarantees. Wireless networks are an emerging solution based on users' access to information and services, regardless of their geographic location. The success of these networks in recent years has generated great interest from individuals, businesses and industry. Although there are several access technologies available to the user such as IEEE standards (802.11, and 802.16). SDN is a new network paradigm used to simplify network management, reducing the complexity of network technology. The following work aims to expose a simulation implemented under OMNeT 4.6 ++, to improve the Handover performance between two technologies WiFi and WiMAX. This paper proposes a decision algorithm for a heterogeneous vertical handover between WiFi access points and WiMAX network. The inputs to the algorithm are WiFi RSS, bit rate, jitter, and estimated TCP end-to-end delay.
