Abstract

Different from the terrestrial cellular system, the GEO mobile satellite system has its own characteristics, such as the extremely large beams, the long propagation delay and the diversity of the MS (Mobile Station) velocity. Based on these characteristics, a cooperative beam-cluster is constructed, and a handover invitation technology based on the coordinated multi-beam is proposed in the paper. Using the sending mechanism of handover invitation by a variable sliding window, the technology can avoid the occurrence of the phenomenon of “ping pong” handover to realize seamless handover, and make the handover quick, efficient and reliable. Simulation results show that the algorithm significantly increases the handover success rate, prevents the unnecessary handoff and has a favourable adaptability to the high velocity MS.
