This study aims to optimize vehicular user association to base stations in a mobile network. We propose an efficient heuristic solution that considers the base station average handover frequency, the channel quality indicator, and bandwidth capacity. We evaluate this solution using real-world base station locations from S\~ao Paulo, Brazil, and the SUMO mobility simulator. We compare our approach against a state of the art solution which uses route prediction, maintaining or surpassing the provided quality of service with the same number of handover operations. Additionally, the proposed solution reduces the execution time by more than 80\% compared to an exact method, while achieving optimal solutions. |
