| Abstract: Location management plays an important role in 3G-PCS cellular networks. The challenge of supporting rapidly growing numbers of mobile subscribers, while constrained by limited radio spectrum, is being faced by cellular network operators worldwide. In this work a dynamic distance-based location update with sequential paging with no delay constraint algorithm has been considered and compared with other location algorithms in terms of saving radio resources. The location management strategy was implemented in 3G PCS architecture based in cellular systems. The mobility model outputs the cellular parameters and location update messages count during the movement of the mobile station. The dynamic distance-based location update and paging algorithm outperforms the static and other dynamic location update algorithms in terms of the number of location update and paging messages and preserves the channel resources. | ||||
