Wireless device handoff based upon dynamic factors

What is disclosed is a method of coordinating a handoff of a wireless communication device from a first access node to a second access node. The method includes monitoring a signal strength level at the wireless communication device for wireless communications transferred from each of the first access node and the second access node. The method also includes determining a loading factor of the first access node, a loading factor of the second access node, a mobility factor of the wireless communication device, and an application type of user communications between the wireless communication device and the first access node, and processing the loading factor of the first access node, the loading factor of the second access node, the mobility factor, and the application type to determine a handoff threshold. The method also includes coordinating the handoff of the wireless communication device from the first access node to the second access node based on the handoff threshold, wherein the handoff is initiated when a difference between the signal strength levels reaches the handoff threshold.
