Abstract:
This paper addresses the dynamic location management for personal communication service (PCS) networks with consideration of mobility patterns. The popular hexagonal cellular architecture is considered. In this paper, we first introduce a coordinate system for the hexagonal cellular architectures. Then, we develop an all-direction mobility model based on the coordinate system for the hexagonal cellular architecture to cope with the mobility patterns of mobile terminals (MTs). The shape and size of the local area (LA) in the dynamic location management scheme is determined by minimizing the total location management cost with bounding the paging cost The optimization problem is transferred to maximize expected number of cells traversed by the MT in the LA with a given size of the LA. The analytic model of calculating the probabilities of any MT's moving is established. An algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problem efficiently.
