Abstract: Heterogeneous Network (HetNet) are widely employed networks. These networks bear the responsibility of providing services to customers. But, there are some complexities that occur because of changing the base stations of different regions. To sustain the stability of the services, handover is required to be placed in the network which transfers the request from initial access point or parent station to another. An important study has been conducted to attain better and effective communication results in Het Nets. This review displayed a literature survey that recognizes the approaches utilized to execute a handover. Along with this, the whole procedure of HO is also given. This paper may help n analyzing different mechanisms in future research.
