Sliding window method based on enhanced throughput prediction for improving GSM network efficiency by reducing HLR-VLR transitions

摘要

The throughput of a global system for mobile (GSM) communications network is to be maximised for meeting effectively and efficiently the service requirements of ever increasing mobile subscriber's base. The period of temporary storage of subscribers' profiles in visitor location register (VLR) at a mobile switching centre (MSC) affects the throughput of GSM network. This research study proposes a sliding window method for determining the storage period of profiles in VLR that maximises the throughput of GSM network. The proposed method proves to be better than the existing set intersection method.
