E1 - Mobile Network mobility

Mobility principles

  • Continuous mobility enables continuous availability of services while the user moves
  • Discrete mobility enables the availability of services within certain areas and for certain access points, e.g home and office, but not while moving from one area to another.
  • Portability is an example of discrete terminal mobility, where it is only allowed to move a terminal from one plug to another.

GSM Handover

  • mechanisms for requesting hand-over
    • power lever in handset is too low
    • signal/noise ratio is too low
    • bit-error-rate is too high
    • ...
  • procedure
    • handset requires hand-over
    • base-station decides
  • alternatives
    • hand-over to neighbour cell
    • hand-over to different RNC/BSC
    • first registration (roaming)
