Abstract :
The performance of the GSM handover algorithm is investigated with respect to signal strength measurement sample averaging. It is shown that the averaging time and the handover margin are closely linked, and have to be considered jointly in setting the parameter values of the handover algorithm for the elimination of inappropriate handovers.
