The multiple registration schemes (MRSs) proposed here are classified into 3 cases by combining five registration schemes which are power up registration scheme (PURS), power down registration scheme (PDRS), zone based registration scheme (ZBRS), distance based registration scheme (DBRS), and implicit registration scheme (IRS) as follows: the first is MRS1 which covers PURS, PDRS, and ZBRS; the second is MRS2 which covers PURS, PDRS, and DBRS; the third is MRS3 which covers PURS, PDRS, IRS, and DBRS. The three proposed schemes are compared each other by analyzing their combined signaling traffic of paging and registration with considering various parameters of a mobile station behavior (unencumbered call duration, power up and down rate, velocity, etc.). Also, we derive allowable location areas from which the optimal location area is obtained. Numerical results show that MRS3 yields better performance than ZBRS, DBRS, MRS1, and MRS2 in most cases of a mobile station behavior, and it has an advantage of distributing the load of signaling traffic into every cell, which is important in personal communication system.

This paper describes the design, implementation and testing of wideband code division multiple access (CDMA) base station demodulator for the international mobile telecommunication-2000 (IMT-2000) system test plant based on cdma2000 radio transmission technology (RTT). The performance of the implemented base station demodulator is measured and compared with the theoretical performance bound. The system test plant equipped with this demodulator provides wireless services, such as high quality speech (9.6 kbps), real-time video (384 kbps) and internet protocol (IP) based data services (144 kbps) in a mobile radio environment.

An analytic traffic model is presented to estimate the soft handoff rate in DS-CDMA cellular systems. The model is based on the fact that a mobile in soft handoff call is connected to two cell sites when it is in an overlapped region. The handoff rate is estimated by the mobility of mobiles, which is a function of the size and shape of cell area, and the call density and speed of mobiles in the area. Simulation results show good agreement with the analytical model.

In this Letter, an analytic method to calculate the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the cell sojourn time with various distributions of a mobile velocity (constant, uniform, or Gaussian distribution) is presented. Gaussian pdf and cdf are estimated through curve-fitting. The cdf of the cell sojourn time is calculated through a numerical method. It is shown that the simulated result matches very close to the calculated result.
