ANALYSING THE PROPOSED HANDOVER APPROACH FOR WI FI AND WIMAX

A wireless network in which, computer devices communicates with each other without any wire. The communication medium between the compu ter devices is wireless. When a computer device wants to communicate with another device, the destination device must lays within the radio range of each other. Users in wireless networks transmit and receive data using electromagnetic waves. Recently wire less networks are getting more and more popular because of its mobility, simplicity and very affordable and cost saving installation. the architecture of WiMAX network and important functional entities and interfaces between these entities like base statio n (BS), Access service network (ASN) gateway and how it supports connection and mobility management across cell sites and inter - service provider network boundaries. Our work starts with problem formulation and implementation, giving the idea about the meth odology used to solve the problem of efficient heterogeneous network handover and gives details of the factors involved in handover decision. In includes the proposed algorithm along with the proposed work description with parameter specification
