Abstract

We consider a state-based dynamic location management scheme, in which the user is partitioned into different mobility state set, and his location area size is changed dynamically corresponding to the state set that he belongs to. Comparing with the fixed LA scheme, numerical experiment result shows its performance can be improved by 30% whilethe current location and paging procedure can still be applied. Besides, as this scheme does not need to process complicated user information, the requirement of computing power can be decreased significantly in compare with the user-based schemes. Our scheme can be used in current 2G mobile systems (such as GSM, CDMA) and the Third Generation (3G) mobile systems with slightly modification of the equipment software.
