Abstract

In this paper we propose a new efficient handover algorithm across overlapped macro and home eNodeBs in emerging LTE systems. More home eNodeBs are anticipated so it is important to find out a good handover algorithm in a high dense environment. Our algorithm focuses on maximizing cell duration. Our implementation and simulation results show that the proposed strategy reduces the number of handover as well as keeps suitable signal level.
