Abstract

With the rapid development of various kinds of radio access technology, the trend of future network will be the heterogeneous wireless networks environment, where all kinds of networks coexist for their complementary characteristics. On the other hand, the rise of smart terminal and software defined radio contribute to the popularity of multi-mode terminals (MMTs) that can connect to several networks simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a TOPSIS based multi-radio access algorithm in heterogeneous wireless networks. MMTs determine candidate networks according to received signal strength (RSS) and access networks with better performance in terms of throughput, energy consumption, network load and cost by means of TOPSIS. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can enhance the throughput efficiently without consuming too much energy.
