Adaptive Heterogeneous Network Handoff of Smartphone Based on the Closed Control Loop

Owing to complementary characteristics of wireless networks, it is deserved to achieve automatic handoff on the modern smartphone for taking full exploitation of these accessible technologies. In this paper, we have proposed the closed loop model on smartphone switching heterogeneous wireless networ...
