Theyare hard handoff and soft handoff. In a hard handoff procedure, the MSCassigns different radio channels to service the user in the event of handoff.The IS-95 CDMA system provides a more efficient handoff, called softhandoff, which cannot be provided with other wireless systems. In softhandoff, there will not be any physical change in the assigned channel, buta different base station handles the radio communication task. An MSCactually decides the servicing base station depending upon the receivedsignals from a user at several neighboring base stations. Soft handoff effectivelyreduces the inadvertent dropping of calls during handoff.1.3.4 Near–Far ProblemAll the signals in CDMA systems are transmitted on the same frequencyband at the same time. When all the mobiles are transmitting to the basestation at the same power level, then the power of a nearby (unwanted)mobile arriving at the listening base station overwhelms the signal froma distant (wanted) mobile. This is the primary hurdle in implementingthe CDMA cellular systems and is defined as the near–far problem(Mohammed 1993). Efficient power control schemes are useful to combatthis near–far problem.1.3.5 CDMA Power ControlThe limit on the system performance and the number of simultaneoususers available with CDMA is a function of the system’s ability to overcomethe near–far problem. To achieve the maximum number of simultaneoususers, the transmitter power of each mobile should be controlledsuch that its signal arrives at the cell site with the minimum required SIR.If the signal power of all mobile transmitters within an area covered bya cell site are controlled, then the total signal power received at the cellsite from all mobiles will be equal to the average received power times thenumber of mobiles operating in the region of coverage. A trade-off mustbe made; if a strong signal from a mobile user arrives at the cell site alongwith a weak signal from another user, the weak user will be dropped. Ifthe received power from a mobile user is significantly high, the performancemay be acceptable, but it will add undesired interference to all otherusers in the cell, wasting energy and causing a drop in network capacity.Efficient power control schemes can be employed to satisfy this trade-off.Chapter 5 presents an overview of power control in cellular networks anddescribes in detail how to design a distributed power control (DPC)scheme. Next we provide an overview of mobile ad hoc networks.
24 Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks1.4 Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET)The major drawback for cellular networks is the need for a centralizedinfrastructure. Recent technological advancements enable portable computersto be equipped with wireless interfaces, allowing networked communicationeven while mobile. Wireless networking greatly enhances theutility of carrying a computing device. It provides mobile users withversatile and flexible communication between people and continuousaccess to networked services with much more flexibility than cellularphones or pagers.A MANET is an autonomous collection of mobile users communicatingover a relatively bandwidth-constrained wireless link with limitedbattery power in highly dynamic environments. The network topology,due to the mobility in the network is, in general, dynamic and maychange rapidly and unpredictably over time. Hence, the connectivityamong the nodes may vary with time because of node departures, newnode arrivals, and the possibility of having mobile nodes. To maintaincommunication between the nodes in the network, each node in a wirelessad hoc network functions as a transmitter, host, and a router. Themanagement and control functions of the network are also distributedamong the nodes. Moreover, as the network is highly decentralized, allnetwork activity, including discovering the topology, transmitting information,and efficient use of the battery power, must be executed by thenodes themselves.As the users in the MANET communicate over wireless links, they haveto contend with the effects of radio communication, such as noise, fading,shadowing, and interference. Regardless of the application, a MANETneeds efficient distributed algorithms to determine network organization,link scheduling, power control, and routing.A MANET is formed by a cluster of mobile hosts and can be rapidlydeployed without any established infrastructure or centralized administration.Because of the transmission range constraint of transceivers, twomobile hosts can communicate with each other either directly if they areclose enough (peer-to-peer) or (multihop) indirectly by having other intermediatemobile hosts relay their packets. The combination of networkingand mobility will engender new services, such as collaborative softwareto support impromptu meetings, self-adjusting lighting and heating,natural disaster relief operations, and navigation software to guide usersin unfamiliar places and on tours. Protocol standards that were developedfor cellular networks are no longer useful for ad hoc networks because oflack of centralized infrastructure. The standards for ad hoc networks,which are different from those for cellular networks, are presented in thefollowing subsection.
