Introduction
A cell is formally defined as an area wherein the use of radio communication resources by the MS is controlled by a single BS.
The size and shape of the cell and the amount of resources allocated to each cell dictate the performance of the system to a large extentGiven the number of users, average frequency
of calls being made, average duration of call time

Cell Area
Ideally, the area covered by a cell is a circular cell
Many factorsReflection, refraction of the signals, presence of
a hill or valley or a tall building, and presence of particles in the air
Actual shape of the cell is determined by the received signal strength in the surrounding area

Signal Strength and Cell Parameter
As the MS moves away from the BS of the cell, the signal strength weakens, and at some point a phenomenon known asHandoff, hand-off, or hand offHandover outside North America

The received signal strength
The received signal strength at the MS can be approximated by curve as shown in Fig. 5.4
![Page 11: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Variation of received power
![Page 12: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Handoff
To receive and interpret the signals correctly at the MS, the radio received signals must be at a given minimum power level Pmin.
The MS can be served by either BSi or BSj between points X3 and X4.
If the MS has a radio link with BSi and is continuously moving away toward BSj , then the change of linkage from BSi to BSj is known as handoff
![Page 13: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Handoff area
Region X3 and X4
Where to perform handoff procedure depends on many factorsOne option is to do handoff at X5, where two
BSs have equal signal strengthA critical consideration is that the handoff
should not take placed too quickly to make the MS change BSi to BSj too frequently if the MS moves back and forth between the two cell areas due to terrain or intentional movements
![Page 15: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Yschen, CSIE, CCU 15
To avoid the ‘ping-pong’ effect
The MS is allowed to continue maintaining a radio link with the current BSi until the signal from BSj exceeds that of BSi by some prespecified threshold value E
![Page 16: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Yschen, CSIE, CCU 16
Another factor that influence handoff
Area and shape of the cellAn ideal situation is to have the cell
configuration match the velocity of the MSs and to have a larger boundary where the handoff rate is minimalThe mobility of an individual MS is difficult to
predictEach MS having a different mobility patterns

Frequency Reuse
Earlier cellular systems employed FDMA, and the range was limited to a radius of from 2 to 20 km
The same frequency band or channel used in a cell can be ‘reused’ in another cell as long as the cell are far apart and the signal strength do not interfere with each other

Example
A typical cluster of seven such cell and four such cluster with no overlapping area is shown in Fig. 5.7.

Reuse distance
The distance between the two cells using the same channel is known as the ‘reuse distance’ and is represented by D.
There is a close relationship between D, R (the radius of each cell), and N (the number of cells is a cluster), which is given by

To reduce interference
Cell splittingCell sectoring
![Page 28: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Yschen, CSIE, CCU 28
Cell Splitting
One way to cope with increased traffic is to split a cell into several smaller cells
As the coverage area of new split cells is smaller, the transmitting power levels are lower, and this help in reducing cochannel interference.

Cell Sectoring
Omnidirectional antennasDirectional antennas
It is difficult to design such antennas, and most of the time, an antennas covers an area of 60 degrees or 120 degrees
Cells served by them are called sectored cellsDifferent sizes of sectored cells are shown in
Fig. 5.13
![Page 31: Chapter 5: The Cellular Concept](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081507/56815a72550346895dc7d458/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Yschen, CSIE, CCU 32
Advantage of sectoring
It requires coverage of a smaller area by each antenna and hence lower power is required in transmitting radio signal
It also helps in decreasing interference between cochannels
It is also observed that the spectrum efficiency of the overall system is enhanced

Alternative way of providing sectored or omni-cell coverage
By placing directional transmission at the corners where three adjacent cell meet
It may appear that arrangement of Fig. 5.16 may require three times the transmitting towers as compared to a system with tower placed at the center of the cell.
