Abstract

Mobile communication towers are used in many personal and industrial purposes. It provides a continuous connectivity to Mobile Nodes (MN) and permits them to change their connection point from current access point to new base station while needed. Handover has become an essential part in mobile communication system because of the limited coverage area of cells. Handover of calls between two cells is encountered and it is required to minimize the delay of the process. In this paper, the horizontal distance measurement using Global Positioning System (GPS) approach is used where hexagonal cell is divided in four quadrant having angle of 90o to each quadrant. Calculating distance of moving mobile node towards boundary ('m') by GPS and comparing with the point ('n') at which handover is initiating, then angle (?) is calculated with respect to position of MN to select potential next station.
