Abstract:


One of the main keys of positioning and ranging technologies in wireless telecommunication networks is the values of distance and RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication), this relationship has a significant effect of the network quality in terms of quality in services and connectivity, and not less in the roaming stage. Many researches results drove to influence these keys to the handover delay in the broadband network, so in many cases that MT handover between boarders of location areas or zones has been affected by long time delay and packet data lost. Over recent years many signal propagation schemes has been presented to describe the relationship between distance and RSSI. In this paper, the modify scheme of location management area (LMA)-based multimedia broadcast services scheme has been presented , the distance between BS and MT and the RSSI , are play the main parameters to influence the handover delay. The analytical algorithm results showed the reduction of the handover delay in smaller perimeter cell size comparing to the large cells in location management area.
