Theory and Testing of Bayesian Handover

Inspired in new paradigms about the advanced engineering and usage of resources in 5G and schemes expected to be applied in prospective wireless systems, the idea that an event of handover (hard or soft) is dictated by Bayesian probabilities, is explored. In essence the entire action of handover is described by the mathematical pieces of Bayes's theorem. It clearly implies to define the prior and posterior probability. Thus, a Bayesian formulation has been developed. The so-called negation probability in a Bayesian scenario has allowed to simulate handover probabilities. It was found that although users are carrying out the completion of call after a successful handover, nonlinearities would emerge as a response to massive connectivity as well as inter-cell interference, among other factors.
