| dc.description.abstract | Due to limited power consumption, packet loss, or dense networks, various challenges may emerge
during drone operation, making the handover process critical for effective data transfer.The challenge
of handover is getting more significant while UAVs are deployed in the networks. The utilization of the
UAVs results to more frequent initiation of a handover procedure. This report focuses on an adaptation
of the actual level of hysteresis margin according to the interference levels in the cell. The hysteresis
margin is commonly used parameter for elimination of handovers that could fail. Evaluations in terms
of spectral efficiency, number of successful handovers and handover success rate are carried out. The
results show significant reduction in the number of failed handovers. | en_US |
