AB  - The next generation mobile communication system called as 
  4G/NGWN is expected to include heterogeneous wireless networks that will offer 
  high data rate multimedia services to end users at lowest cost. In present Wireless 
  Systems the capability of broader coverage is available but has the limitation 
  of bandwidth and network cost. In addition to the coverage, need to ensure the 
  higher quality of content-delivery at lower cost. This study proposes Centralized 
  Media Independent Soft Handover Decision (CMISHD) which uses Nash-equilibrium 
  based handover for quality oriented content delivery. The primary idea is based 
  upon SASHA which is a Smooth Adaptive Soft Handover Algorithm for wireless networks. 
  The study predominantly focuses on optimizing the ideas that were proposed by 
  SASHA. Simulation based testing for data/video traffic transmissions are presented, 
  depicting the performance of CMISHD in various complex scenarios involving large 
  number of mobile nodes, activities like node movement-velocity have also been 
  simulated which is not addressed in SASHA. The results also show how CMISHD 
  scheme can take content delivery, a step ahead, by its quality calculations 
  and considerations which were optimized from SASHA.
