Mobility Management in Next Generation Wireless Networks

Living in a modern society without smart devices is impossible now a days. Every sector related to human lifestyle is either smart or controlled devices which was rare a decade back. Expectations are not limited to network connection but extend to mobility as well. As a result, mobility management becomes an essential and challenging task to accomplish. The revolution in wireless technologies expects more scalability and flexibility in resource management. Handover is one of the vital parts of radio resource management. Execution with perfection and optimization of the handover technique increases the reliability of the system deployed to meet the requirement of high mobility. The cell became small as the wireless cell size adjusted with the revolution of relevant technologies like fifth generation (5G) and beyond. Traffic profile and its density are always in a growing trend. This pattern draws the attention of ultra-dense networks (UDN). The UDN of small cells requires an extra number of handovers with higher accuracy and less delay in execution. In this context, this paper proposed an algorithm where a cross-examination to reduce unnecessary handover that improves the handover performance in next-generation wireless networks.
