Abstract


Handover is a mechanism that transfers information from one network terminal to another as a user moves through the coverage area in a cellular system. Here the network is selected in that particular cellular network environment using handover decision process. This handover decision will be either mobile or network initiated. Terrestrial area is poor in its network coverage. So here the terrestrial network is sensed and efficient mobile service with handover is made possible. This paper deals about how cognitive handover takes place efficiently between the terrestrial and satellite segments. The critical issues related to hybrid satellite/terrestrial architectures will be identified and analyzed all along this paper and the efficient handover over the terrestrial network is made possible. Keywords– Handover, IEEE802.16g Protocol, Cognitive Radio, Terrestrial Networks, Hybrid Satellite, Casting, Load Balancing.
