Abstract

This paper presents a dynamic and individualized location update scheme that considers each user's mobility patterns. The mobility patterns are used to create individualized location areas for each user. The proposed scheme is flexible and can be used in network with arbitrary cell topologies. The scheme, along with other existing schemes is simulated using realistic users' mobility and call arrival patterns, and network topology. The simulated environment consists of 90 cells representing the geographical area of the San Francisco bay, and 66,550 mobile users representing the typical classes of users that are normally present in a real cellular network. Results show the proposed scheme gives lower overall signaling costs, resulting in savings on the limited radio bandwidth that may have otherwise been used for location updates and paging.
