Abstract :
We propose and analyze a handoff scheme using the concept of a Virtual Cell to ensure seamless connectivity in 60 GHz Radio over Fiber network. Simulation based performance analysis showed 33.7% better Throughput efficiency when compared to using a Moving Extended Cell in a small sized network. Simultaneously, user mobility speed was monitored and an optimum operating range is prescribed.
