Abstract

The popularizing of intelligent terminals and the advent of mobile internet give rise to significant data demand increase upon the mobile networks, even causing data alarm of particular areas. At the same time, the WLAN feature is becoming the standard configuration of these intelligent terminals, which gives opportunity to offload the data flow from cellular networks to WLAN. Therefore, it attracts great research interests from industries to design efficient handover between cellular networks and WLAN. In this paper, we propose a carrier-grade vertical handover scheme based on the Android operation system of intelligent terminals, which will help to inter-system handover without the awareness of users.
