ABSTRACT:
A multi-slope handoff algorithm for controlling dynamic communication quality in wireless communications is proposed to let a mobile node adjust the handoff slope according to different communication connection situations for setting the optimum add/drop connection trigger thresholds. The algorithm comprises the following steps. First, a mobile node receives pilot strengths of its service pilot and nearby pilots to produce an aggregate strength. Next, the mobile node determines whether to perform handoff according to the magnitude of the aggregate strength. The handoff action is then controlled by multi-slope handoff operations to set an appropriate slope and to calculate the add/drop connection trigger thresholds when performing handoff. Finally, the pilot to be connected is selected based on the communication quality at that time. In this way, the quality of the communication service can be enhanced, the connection power consumption can be lowered, and the communication channel usage can be reduced.
