In the B5G/6G network, the deployment of small cells increased to keep up with the growth of mobile traffic. This deployment will increase the number of handovers (HOs) between cells. Ping-pong handover (PPHO) and radio link failure (RLF) are considered the two major problems in HO that may occur. So, the challenge is to set the handover control parameters (HCPs) carefully to find out the proper HO decision that should be appropriate to the environmental constraints. Therefore, in our paper, we propose an adaptive HCPs algorithm that adapts to environmental constraints. In addition, the proposed algorithm will have immunity to RLF and will significantly minimize the amount of PPHO compared to other workers. In the simulation results, our proposed model is evaluated using two frequency plans. By using frequency plan 1, the user mean throughput increased from 270 Kbps to 281 Kbps when the serving cell was fully loaded. By using frequency plan 2, the user mean throughput increased from 6 Mbps to 20 Mbps when the serving cell was fully loaded. In addition, the amount of ping-pong handover between overlapped small cells decreased and will not exceed one PPHO compared to another literature model.
