A FUZZY LOGIC BASED HANDOFF APPLICATION ON OPEN-SOURCE PLATFORM

Abstract

Handoff, in wireless networks, occurs when a mobile terminal switches from one network to another. While moving out from one point to another, mobile terminals may come across different types of networks each has specific characteristics that need to be considered when choosing the best candidate. Selection of the optimum access point is a challenge that impacts the overall network stability, quality of service provisioning, resource utilization, and user satisfaction. Nowadays, there are many mobile platforms for mobile terminals. Android, Google`s open-source framework, consists of an operating system and software stack for developing applications on mobile devices. The Android framework provides capabilities of the Linux kernel and its SDK provides the tools and APIs for developing applications on the Android platform using the Java programming language. In this study, we have developed an Android application with a user friendly graphical interface, which switches the connection between IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g Wi-Fi hotspots using its fuzzy logic based handoff decision making module. The results show that desired performance results could be obtained with the software developed.
