2IntroductiontotheHandoverProcess
HandoverdecisionsaremadebyRadioResourceManagementintheBSC.
TheyarebasedontheDL&ULmeasurementresultsreportedbytheMS&BTS,whicharethenprocessedaccordingtoparametersettingsforeachcell,andthenprocessedbytheHandoverControlAlgorithm,producingadecision.Targetcellevaluationisalsopartofthehandoverprocess.Handoversaretriggeredbythresholdcomparison,orbyperiodiccomparison.
Whyarehandoversneeded?
1.Callcontinuity:
toensureacallcanbemaintainedasanMSmovesingeographicallocation,fromthecoverageareaofonecelltoanother.
2.Callquality-toensurethatifanMSmovesintoanareaofpoorqualityorpoorcoverage,thecallcanbemovedfromtheservingcelltoaneighbouringcell(withbetterquality)withoutdroppingthecall.
3.TrafficReasons-toensurethatthetrafficwithinthenetworkisoptimallydistributedbetweenthedifferentlayersorbandsofanetwork.
3HandoverDecisions
Therearenumerouscausesforahandoverdecisiontobemade,basedoncomparisonsofmeasurementswiththresholds.TheHOthresholdcomparisonincludestheevaluationoftheuplinkanddownlinklevel,quality,andinterference.Othercriteriaalsoconsideredare:
MS-BSdistanceevaluation,theevaluationofarapidfielddrop,thedetectionofafastorslow-movingMS,thedetectionofaturn-around-cornerMS,powerbudgetevaluation,andumbrellahandoverevaluation.
Figure1HandoverCauses
Iftwoormorecriteriaforahandoverarepresentsimultaneously,theirorderofpriorityisasfollows:
1.Interference(uplinkordownlink)
2.Uplinkquality
3.Downlinkquality
4.Uplinklevel
5.Downlinklevel
6.MS-BSdistance(maximumorminimum)
7.Turn-around-cornerMS
8.Rapidfielddrop
9.Fast/Slow-movingMS
10.Bettercell(PowerbudgetorUmbrella)
11.PCduetoLowerqualitythresholds(uplinkanddownlink)
12.PCduetoLowerlevelthresholds(uplinkanddownlink)
13.PCduetoUpperqualitythresholds(uplinkanddownlink)
14.PCduetoUpperlevelthresholds(uplinkanddownlink).
Whentwoormoreoftheaboveindicatedcriteria(from1.to9.)arepresentsimultaneously,forexampleUplinkqualityandUplinklevel,theBSCperformstargetcellevaluation,onlyaccordingtothecriterionwhichhasthehighestpriority.So,outofUplinkqualityandUplinklevel,thatwouldbeUplinkquality.Ifnoadjacentcellisgoodenoughforahandovercausedbythiscriterion,thentheBSCproceedstothenextHOthresholdcomparison(10.Bettercell),andthentothePCthresholdcomparisons(11.to14.).
4HandoverTimers
TheBSCnormallycontrolstheintervalsbetweenhandoversandhandoverattemptsbytheuseofthefollowingparameters:
minIntBetweenHoReq(MIH)(HOC)(ZEHO)(0..31s)(5s),and
minIntBetweenUnsuccHoAttempt(MIU)(HOC)(ZEHO)(0..31s)(3s)
Thefirstparameter(MIH)preventsrepetitivehandoversforthesameMS,byusingatimerthatsetstheminimumintervalbetweenhandoversrelatedtothesameconnection.
Thelatterparameter(MIU)definestheminimumtimethattheMSmustwaitafterahandoverattemptfails,beforeitcantryahandoverattemptagain.
TheMMLdefaultvaluesare(5s)and(3s)asnotedabove,andtherecommendedvaluesfortheseparametersarethesameasthedefaults.
ThemeasurementaveragingandtheHOThresholdcomparisondonotstopduringtheseintervals,althoughhandoversarenotpossible.

Thepurposeoftheprocessistofindthebesttargetcelltosatisfythecauseforthehandover.
Evaluationofthepreferredlistoftargetcellsisbasedon:
1.theradiolinkmeasurements
2.thresholdcomparison
3.theprioritylevelsoftheneighbouringcells
4.theloadofthoseneighbouringcellswhichbelongtothesameBSCastheservingcell
5.RXlevelcomparison–ifitisneeded
Tobeonthetargetcellcandidatelist,theneighbouringcellsmust,ofcourse,bedefinedasAdjacenciesintheoutgoingdirectionfromtheservingcell.TheBTSsendsthelistofbestcandidatestotheBSC.FirsttheBSCdefinesandselectsthosecellswhichmeettherequirementsfortheradiolinkproperties.
RRManagementcanhandleupto32ofthebestcandidatesfortargetcellevaluation.
Theloadsofthetrafficchannelsinthesecandidatecellsarecheckedbytheparameter:
btsLoadThreshold(BLT)(BTS)(ZEQO)(0..100%)(70%)
Ifoneofthesecandidatecellsisalready"overloaded",(thatisloadedabovethethreshold,whichisasoftlimit),thentheprioritythathasalreadybeensetforthatcellbytheparameter:
hoLevPriority(PRI)(ADJC)(ZEAO)(0..7)(3)
