Abstract

Handoff procedure enables the resumption of individuals’ calls or data transform without dropping the communication during moving from on base station to new station. This article presents new handoff scheme discussing the Relative Signal Strength’s (RSS) measurements, threshold distance and power of neighboring base station. The RSS threshold distance is adopted to set the handoff executing decision, and typical margin level between the reciprocal communication stations' RSS for transferring a current call into new cell. The proposed system mode has been validated by simulation experimental for the adopted parameters. The numerical simulation results show higher improvement in reducing the executing unnecessary handoffs, and decreasing the handoff’s delay and the blocking calls’ probability.
