Abstract

Abstract: H 2 RDC (heuristic handover based on RCC‐DTSK‐C), a heuristic algorithm based on a highly interpretable deep Takagi–Sugeno–Kang fuzzy classifier, is proposed for suppressing the mobile heterogeneous networks problem of frequent handover and handover ping‐pong in the multibase‐station scenario. This classifier uses a stack structure between subsystems to form a deep classifier before generating a base station (BS) priority sequence during the handover process, and adaptive handover hysteresis is calculated. Simulation results show that H 2 RDC allows user equipment to switch to the best antenna at the optimal time. In high‐BS density load and mobility scenarios, the proposed algorithm's handover success rate is similar to those of classic algorithms such as best connection (BC), self tuning handover algorithm (STHA), and heuristic for handover based on AHP‐TOPSIS‐FUZZY (H 2 ATF). Moreover, the handover rate is 83% lower under H 2 RDC than under BC, whereas the handover ping‐pong rate is 76% lower.
