An alternative strategy for location update and paging in mobile networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In mobile systems, the influence of mobility on the network performance must be strengthened, mainly due to the huge number of mobile users and the small of cells. This paper presents a profile-based strategy combined with a built-in memory method to reduce the signaling cost during the location update processes by increasing the intelligence of the location procedure. This strategy associates to each user a list of cells where it is likely to be with a given probability in each period of time. The list is ranked from to the least likely place where a user is found. When a call arrives for a mobile, it is paged sequentially in each location within the list. When a user moves between location areas in the list, no location update is required. The implementation of this strategy has been subject to extensive tests. The results obtained confirm the efficiency and the effectiveness of PBS to significantly reduce the costs of both location updates and call delivery procedures, in comparison with IS-41 and other strategies well-known in the literature. q 2004 Elsevier B.V.

A Timer-based Multilayer Location Management Strategy for PCS Networks - Universal Personal Communications Record, 1997. Conference Record., 1997 IEEE 6th International Co
In this paper, we propose a location management strategy that minimizes the radio bandwidth cost for paging and location update. The proposed strategy uses the concept of multilayer and is based on the timer-initiated location update and 3-step paging. The system assigns an optimal layer number to a mobile terminal according to the user’s mobility pattern and call arrival rate. The mobile termi...
متن کاملTradeoff analysis for location update and paging in wireless networks
Location management plays the central role in providing ubiquitous communications services in the future wireless mobile networks. Location update and paging are commonly used in tracking mobile users on the move, location update is to update a mobile user’s current location while the paging is used to locate a mobile user, both will incur signaling traffic in the wireless networks. The more fr...

متن کاملAn Information-Theoretic Framework for Optimal Location Tracking in Multi-System Wireless Networks
An information-theoretic framework is developed for optimal location management in multi-system, fourth generation ( ) wireless networks. The framework envisions that each individual sub-system operates fairly independently, and does not require public knowledge of individual sub-network topologies. To capture the variation in paging and location update costs in this heterogeneous environment, ...
