Research Interests
Research Topic: Intelligent Proactive Handover and QoS Management using TBVH in Heterogeneous Networks
Research Project Outline: The aim of this research study was to develop intelligent solutions to improve QoS provisioning for multi-class traffic in 4G heterogeneous clients through improved predictability of vertical handovers. This involves development of process models of proposed mechanisms in OPNET Modeler.
