Four 3GPP defined traffic classes are considered in performance evaluation. An attribute matrix is constructed considering some major attributes. Handoff decision meeting multiattribute QoS requirement is made according to the traffic features. The weight relation of decision elements is determined with the least square (LS) approach. The final decision is made using the proposed PROMSIS algorithm based on the attribute matrix and weight vector. The simulation results have manifested that the proposed PROMSIS algorithm can provide satisfactory vertical handoff performance, and the LS-PROMSIS algorithm can be fit to the characteristics of the traffic. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/846791","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,18]],"date-time":"2013-09-18T21:03:57Z","timestamp":1379538237000},"page":"846791","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A Novel PROMSIS Vertical Handoff Decision Algorithm for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Shengmei","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Broadband Wireless Communication and Sensor Network Technology Key Laboratory of Ministry of Education, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing 210003, China"}]},{"given":"Zhongjiu","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Broadband Wireless Communication and Sensor Network Technology Key Laboratory of Ministry of Education, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing 210003, China"}]},{"given":"Su","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Broadband Wireless Communication and Sensor Network Technology Key Laboratory of Ministry of Education, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Nanjing 210003, China"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1049\/iet-com.2010.0820"},{"key":"B2-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/CC.2013.6457526"},{"key":"B3-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/GLOCOM.2007.852"},{"key":"B4-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LCOMM.2008.080216"},{"issue":"1","key":"B9-2013-846791","first-page":"93","volume":"39","author":"Bin L.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Application of Electronic Technique"},{"key":"B5-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TMAG.2006.871986"},{"key":"B6-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0377-2217(86)90044-5"},{"first-page":"947","volume-title":"Proceedings of the IEEE 63rd Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Sping \u203206)","author":"Stevens-Navarro E.","key":"B7-2013-846791"},{"key":"B8-2013-846791","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00933438"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1155\/2013\/846791","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1155\/2013\/846791","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1155\/2013\/846791","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,16]],"date-time":"2021-05-16T20:30:06Z","timestamp":1621197006000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1155\/2013\/846791"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,1]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1155\/2013\/846791"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2013\/846791","relation":{},"ISSN":["1550-1477","1550-1477"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1550-1477"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1550-1477"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,1]]}}}
