Comparison of different hand-over strategies for high capacity cellular mobile radio systems

Preliminary results are presented for a computer program, which has already been used for spectrum efficiency evaluations, that starting from a dynamic traffic model gives interesting information on system performance when different hand-over criteria are used. The proposed simulation program is able to evaluate hand-over characteristics for strategies based on field strength, distance, and C/I (carrier/interference ratio). A detailed definition of the mobile ratio scenario in which the program will operate is presented
