In high mobility wireless networks, ensuring seamless connectivity remains a significant challenge due to rapid fluctuations in channel conditions and frequent handoffs. This paper proposes a joint optimization framework that integrates channel estimation accuracy with adaptive handoff decision-making. By combining predictive channel modeling with mobility-aware decision logic, our model minimizes service interruption and optimizes link quality in real-time. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves up to 28% improvement in signal stability and reduces handoff failures by 35% in high-speed vehicular scenarios compared to baseline models. This paper provides valuable insight into cross-layer design for 5G and beyond wireless networks.
