Abstract

The fourth generation mobile technology (4G) has been one of the important innovation in communication field. The development of the fourth generation (4G) technology happens due to previous technology such as first generation (1G), second generation (2G) and third generation (3G. The advantages of fourth generation compared to previous technologies are it have a higher data transfer rate and 4G wireless network is a pure data connection. There are two type standard of 4G which id LTE and WiMax. For OFDM (access technology of 4G) the quality and capacity should be planned with proper guidelines in order to avoid loss or interruption of service. In order to avoid such problem the handover conducted in telecommunication industries. The handover can be classified into hard handover and soft/softer handover. The implementation of soft handover can increase the quality, and capacity performance. There are two general type of antenna which is omnidirectional antenna and directional antenna. Sectoral antennas are a type of directional antennas that used in the base station. This research involve the basic study of handover for the cellular network, the planning of handover in 4G technology and the types of antenna will be used by base transceivers station (BTS). The handover planning conducted by using software called Atoll RF planning tool.
