Conditional handover (CHO) is a state-of-the-art 3GPP handover mechanism used in 5G networks. Although it improves mobility robustness by reducing mobility failures, the decoupling of the handover preparation and execution phases in CHO…

To enhance the handover performance in fifth generation (5G) cellular systems, conditional handover (CHO) has been evolved as a promising solution. Unlike A3 based handover where handover execution is certain after receiving handover…

This paper elaborates on Conditional Handover (CHO) - a mobility feature designed in Release 16 of 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), aimed at improving the reliability of handover in cellular networks. CHO has turned out to be a…

This paper elaborates on Conditional Handover (CHO) modelling, aimed at maximizing the use of contention free random access (CFRA) during mobility. This is a desirable behavior as CFRA increases the chance of fast and successful handover.…

Higher frequencies that are introduced in 5G networks cause rapid signal degradation and challenge user mobility. In recent studies, a conditional handover procedure has been adopted for 5G networks to enhance user mobility robustness. In…

Handovers (HOs) are the cornerstone of modern cellular networks for enabling seamless connectivity to a vast and diverse number of mobile users. However, as mobile networks become more complex with more diverse users and smaller cells,…

In 5G cellular networks, frequency range 2 (FR2) introduces higher frequencies that cause rapid signal degradation and challenge user mobility. In recent studies, a conditional handover procedure has been adopted as an enhancement to…

The handover (HO) procedure is one of the most critical functions in a cellular network driven by measurements of the user channel of the serving and neighboring cells. The success rate of the entire HO procedure is significantly affected…

The emerging paradigm of 6G multiple Radio Access Technology (multi-RAT) networks, where cellular and Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) transmitters coexist, requires mobility decisions that remain reliable under fast channel dynamics, interference,…

The construction of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations has recently spurred tremendous attention from academia and industry. 5G and 6G standards have specified LEO satellite network as a key component of 5G and 6G networks.…

Random Access is a critical procedure using which a User Equipment (UE) identifies itself to a Base Station (BS). Random Access starts with the UE transmitting a random preamble on the Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH). In a…

One of the key challenges in realizing ultra-reliable low-latency communications (uRLLC) for factories-of-the-future (FoF) applications is to enhance the cellular random access channel (RACH) procedure. The state-of-the-art LTE RACH…

Although frequency range 2 (FR2) systems are an essential part of 5G-Advanced and future 3GPP releases, the mobility performance of multi-panel user equipment (MPUE) with hand blockage is still an area open for research and standardization.…

Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) has emerged as a promising solution in addressing the challenges of high-mobility scenarios in 5G NR Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications. This paper proposes a novel sensing-assisted…

In typical wireless cellular systems, the handover mechanism involves reassigning an ongoing session handled by one cell into another. In order to support increased capacity requirement and to enable newer use cases, the next generation…

In cellular networks, cell handover refers to the process where a device switches from one base station to another, and this mechanism is crucial for balancing the load among different cells. Traditionally, engineers would manually adjust…

Random Access is an important step in enabling the initial attachment of a User Equipment (UE) to a Base Station (gNB). The UE identifies itself by embedding a Preamble Index (RAPID) in the phase rotation of a known base sequence, which it…

While network densification is considered an important solution to cater the ever-increasing capacity demand, its effect on the handover (HO) rate is overlooked. In dense 5G networks, HO delays may neutralize or even negate the gains…

Handover (HO) management is one of the most crucial tasks in dense cellular networks with mobile users. A problem in the HO management is to deal with increasing HOs due to network densification in the 5G evolution and various HO skipping…

Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) does not support data transmission during random access (RA) procedures, which results in unnecessary control signalling overhead and power consumption, especially for small data transmission (SDT).…
