Modeling and Performance Analysis of the Movement-Based Registration with Implicit Registration

摘要

This study examines movement-based registration (MBR). In MBR, a mobile station (MS) performs location registration whenever the number of entering cells reaches the specified movement threshold M. MBR is simple and its implementation is quite straightforward. However, it may result in more registrations than other similar schemes. We propose an improved MBR scheme, in which MBR combines with implicit registration (IR), to reduce registration cost. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated using a mathematical approach based on the 2-dimensional random walk mobility model in a hexagonal cell configuration. The numerical results for varying circumstances show that the proposed scheme performs better than conventional MBR.
