A Novel Handover Scheme Based on Adaptive Agent for Reducing Real-Time Communication Latency in Automation Environment

Delay and Interference are considered as the main reasons limiting the capacity and increasing the handover call blocking probability in cellular systems. The probability of handover failure is considered a common criterion for performance evaluation of handovers in cellular systems. Reducing the latency in the handover process is considered a major challenge in WLAN. For real-time communication and automation very low latency is needed. To reduce the latency in the handover process, we introduce a new handover scheme based on adaptive agents. Furthermore, in this paper we discuss and analyze handover managements in cellular systems.
