To achieve this there is a need to design an efficient vertical handover mechanism. User preference and system condition should be taken into consideration for efficient vertical handover. As the 3GPP Long-term evolution or L TE is the upcoming WWAN technology, performing an efficient vertical handover between L TE and next generation wireless LAN will be the challenge for future research. In this paper a fuzzy based vertical handover algorithm NG-VDA is proposed to provide an efficient vertical handover between L TE and WLAN to the user on the basis of multiple parameters. %Z cited By 18; Conference of 2010 International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems, ICIAS 2010 ; Conference Date: 15 June 2010 Through 17 June 2010; Conference Code:84196
