Abstract
In a cellular network, handoff is a transition for any given user from one base station to another geographically adjacent base station, as the user is free to move around. If handoff fails, it leads to forced termination of ongoing call. This is not user friendly at all. The major parameter in any network is defined by its Quality of Service (QOS) and handoff decision scheme plays a major role in QOS. In this paper, as the user is moving, handoff mechanism is analyzed on the basis of received signal strength from two different base stations and results are plotted using the Matlab code.
