Patent ID: 8031676

Claim:
A method for a constructing a mobility model for optimizing a wireless communication system, wherein the wireless communication system includes a plurality of location areas, each of the location areas includes a plurality of border cells and at least an inner cell, and each border cell and each inner cell has a first parameter representing a ratio of mobility behavior causing handover, the method comprising: a processor collecting a plurality of network traffic statistic data of a plurality of items, wherein the items include handover (HO) between any two neighboring cells, and location update (LU) of each of a plurality of mobile stations of each border cell; the processor estimating the first parameter, which represents a ratio of mobility behavior causing handover, of each border cell according to the handover from each first cell to the border cell and the location update of the border cell, wherein the first cell is neighboring to the border cell and belongs to a different location area than the border cell; and the processor estimating a mobility rate from a neighboring cell of each cell to the cell according to the handover from the neighboring cell to the cell and the first parameter of the cell.
