  • Abstract
    Dynamic paging area schemes that use a distance threshold is can significantly reduce the cost of location management. A distance-based location management scheme that uses a mobility model which incorporates various user movement patterns is proposed. Performance characteristics of the proposed location management scheme using the new mobility model are presented and compared with those of the IS-41 standard
