Why Handoffs?
• Handoff – voice channel• Paging channels – Common Control channels• value of implementing handoffs • size of the cell• people talk longer

Handoff is needed in two situations

Two Decision-Making Parameters of Handoff
![Page 8: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Two Decision-Making Parameters of Handoff
• Based on – signal strength– carrier-to-interference ratio
![Page 9: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Type -1
• the signal-strength threshold level for handoff is
−100 dBm – noise-limited systems −95 dBm – interference-limited systems
![Page 10: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Type - 2
• C/I at the cell boundary for handoff should be at a level, 18 dB
![Page 11: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Type - 1
• Location receiver at each cell site• Received signal strength (RSS)• RSS = C + I• Two situations may occur– I more– I Less
• Not accurate
![Page 12: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Type - 2
• Carrier to Interference Ratio
• Two situations occur– C Less– I more
•

Determining the Probability of Requirement for Handoffs
![Page 14: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Handoff
• Soft Handoff – Make Before Break• Hard Handoff – Break Before Make
![Page 19: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Number of Hard Handoffs Per Call
• 0.2 handoff per call in a 16- to 24-km cell• 1–2 handoffs per call in a 3.2- to 8-km cell• 3–4 handoffs per call in a 1.6- to 3.2-km cell
![Page 20: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
INITIATION OF A HANDOFF
![Page 21: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
INITIATION OF HANDOFF
• Signal strength - reverse voice channel• Threshold level - minimum required voice
quality• Cell site – MTSO• Unnecessary Handoff• Failure Handoff
![Page 22: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

The velocity of vehicle V and the pathloss slope γ , can be used to determine the value of Δ dynamically

Two circumstances where handoffs are necessary but cannot be made

Situations
• When the mobile unit is located at a signal-strength hole within a cell but not at the boundary
• When the mobile unit approaches a cell boundary but no channels in the new cell are available.

DELAYING A HANDOFF
• A Two-Level Handoff Algorithm• Advantage of Delayed Handoffs– Switching processor– Interference

FORCED HANDOFFS
A forced handoff is defined as a handoff that would normally occur but is prevented from happening, or a handoff that should not occur but is forced to happen.
![Page 30: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Handoff
• Controlling a Handoff By cell site – threshold level - variation By MSC
• Creating a Handof MSC ordering Cellsite – threshold level increase
![Page 31: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
QUEUING OF HANDOFFS
• Queuing of handoffs is more effective than two-threshold-level handoffs
• 1/μ - average calling time in seconds, including new calls and handoff calls in each cell
• λ1 - arrival rate (λ1 calls per second) for originating calls• Λ2 - arrival rate (λ2 handoff calls per second) for handoff calls• M1- size of queue for originating calls• M2 -size of queue for handoff calls• N- number of voice channels• a =(λ1 + λ2)/μ• b1 =λ1/μ• b2= λ2/μ
![Page 32: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Case – 1
• No queuing on either the originating calls or the handoff calls
• The blocking for either an originating call or a handoff call is
![Page 33: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Case-2
• Queuing the originating calls but not the handoff calls
• The blocking probability for originating calls is
![Page 34: HANDOFFS AND DROPPED CALLS](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051116/5681523b550346895dc08103/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Case -2
• The blocking probability for handoff calls is

Case-3
