Problem Statement
What is handover (handoff) in mobile networks, and why is it important?
Explanation
Handover is the process where an ongoing call or data session is transferred from one cell’s base station to another as the user moves. It ensures seamless connectivity without drops. There are two main types: hard handover (break before make) and soft handover (make before break). Smooth handovers are crucial for uninterrupted mobile communication, especially in fast-moving environments like vehicles.
