Abstract

Provisioning continuous services while moving through heterogeneous wireless networks is a main issue in the fourth generation wireless Networks. An efficient vertical handover decision making algorithm that takes into account services' requirements, considers users' preferences and guaranties seamless handover over heterogeneous technologies is required. In this paper, we propose an intelligent context-aware solution that considers both users and services requirements. It is based on advanced decision approaches like fuzzy logic and analytic hierarchy processes.
