Abstract— An adaptive handover algorithm for wireless comn systems is addressed in this extended abstract. Moving from the Generalized Extended Least Square handover algorithm in [1], we model the handover mechanism as an hybrid system, and we include it in a dynamic optimization problem. The objective function takes into account the parameters that influence the handover mechanism. The optimal solution of the program allows to evaluate performance of the handover in terms of the probability of handover and probability of outage. Numerical results are reported in order to illustrate the approach.
