Enabling LTE CA handover to secondary cell

The ns-3 Network Simulator Project

The goal of my project is implementation of handover to secondary cell in LTE with Carrier Aggregation.

To make it possible I plan to:

  1. Improve architecture of LTE CA to make sure secondary cells are treated the same way as primary cells by eNB and frequency channels can be switched easily on UE.
  2. Implement minimally feasible version of handover procedure on eNB and UE and write unit tests for this procedure.
  3. Implement necessary signalling on RRC to make handover negotiation possible.
  4. Implement handover algorithm to make automatic handover possible.
  5. Write a scenario to validate implemented functionality and provide an example of usage for implemented functionality.

More detailed plan is provided in project proposal itself.
