Abstract

Recently mobile communication systems such as 3GPP LTE, IEEE802.16e have been growing interest in the femto-cell systems for increase of data rates and enhanced call quality. Cell management method for handover in a femto-cell system is very important issue because it includes heavy control management information of macro-cell and a large number of femto-cells and can be a burden to a system. In this paper, we propose an adaptive construction of control management message (MOB-NBR-ADV) and cell management method in a femto-cell system. The proposed scheme provides fast scanning and efficient handover by means of preselecting the candidate target femto-cells. The simulation results show that the proposed schemes improve the MS's handover-related performance in terms of scanning power and scanning time compared with the conventional management scheme of femto-cell systems.
