contents The dense deployment of 5G heterogeneous networks (HetNets) has improved network capacity. However, it also brings frequent and unnecessary handover challenges to high-speed mobile user equipment (UE), resulting in unstable communication and degraded quality of service. Traditional handovers ignore the type of target next-generation Node B (gNB), resulting in high-speed UEs being able to be handed over to any gNB. This paper proposes a NR cell identity (NCI)-based handover decision-making algorithm (HDMA) to address this issue. The proposed HDMA identifies the type of the target gNB (macro/small/mmWave gNB) using the gNB identity (ID) within the NCI to improve the handover decision-making strategy. The proposed HDMA aims to improve the communication stability of high-speed mobile UE by enabling high-speed UEs to identify the target gNB type during the HDMA using the gNB ID. Simulation results show that the proposed HDMA outperforms other HDMAs in enhanced connection stability.

The dense deployment of 5G heterogeneous networks (HetNets) has improved network capacity.
