Optimization of the assignment of cells to packet control units in GERAN

In GSM EDGE radio access network (GERAN), the assignment of cells to packet control units within a base station-controller is of key importance to optimize the quality of service experienced by end users.

description In GSM EDGE radio access network (GERAN), the assignment of cells to packet control units within a base station-controller is of key importance to optimize the quality of service experienced by end users. In this paper, a novel methodology is presented to optimize this assignment by means of graph partitioning theory. The proposed algorithm aims at minimising the number of cell re-selections between cells on different packet control units based on handover information. Results from the application of the method in a live network show its capability to improve end-user performance in terms of service delay and application throughput.
