Abstract
The next generation of wireless network consists of many overlaying integrated networks which know as heterogenous network in which mobile node will be on mobility between/within these networks. During mobility of node, the ongoing call of mobile node should be transferred between/within these seamless networks. The transfer of mobile node between/within network can be done using handover algorithms. Most of the handover algorithms designed for heterogeneous wireless network are mainly based on parameters such as signal strength, SIR, distance, velocity, direction, and power consumption. For an effective handover, different approaches have been proposed. These approaches have their own advantages and disadvantages, and each of them performs better than the others under certain circumstances. The chapter classifies and discuss the different approaches for designing of vertical handoff mechanism.
