Abstract: Mobility is the need of the hour— computing and communication devices of today are omnipresent and operate in heterogeneous environment. Terminologies such as ―Always Best Connected‖, ―Seamless Mobility‖ are considered as key features of Next Generation Wireless Networks (NGWN). The challenge for Next Generation Wireless devices is ensuring end-to-end connectivity by seamlessly migrating between Heterogeneous wireless technologies (viz. Wireless LAN, WiMax, Cellular, UMTS, and LTE etc.) This process of handover between different wireless technologies referred to as Vertical Handovers/Handoffs has significant importance among industry and academia researchers. The prime objective of this paper is to provide a one-stop literature store on basics of Handovers, Classifications, Algorithms, Factors influencing Handovers and desirable features of Handover mechanisms for NGWN.

Keywords: Hard Handoff, Soft Handoff, VHD algorithms, Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM)
