Abstract
In this paper, the predictive schemes of reducing call termination during handoff in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system using position location in the required handoff area with minimum false handoff, where the mobile station (MSs) are located randomly in the cell and each MS has call duration, speed and direction, the speeds and directions of the MSs are varied. The signals between the MSs and Base Stations (BSs) are dealt with by using position estimation method using time difference of arrival (TDQA) of the signals, estimation of the variable MS location, knowing the speed and the direction leading to a neighboring cell. The results obtained comply with Federal Communication Commission (FCC) which is internationally adopted. Also, the blocking probabilities for handoff and for new calls using Predictive Channel Reservation (PCR) scheme and Guard Channel (GC) are studied. The results show that predictive scheme reduces the blocking probability depending on the number of reserved channels. MATLAB software (version 7.6) was used to perform the simulation programs.
