Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and system for performing Handover (HO) in a Long-Range Land-To-Sea (LRLS) wireless network. The Customer-Premises Equipment (CPE) comprises an Antenna Array (AA). The HO management system scans one or more inactive AAs of CPE based on configuration parameters. Further, one of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) throughput values are retrieved on uplink and downlink. Thereafter, one of SNR and MCS throughput values on uplink and downlink are processed for determining a target AA. Further, system performs inter-network HO to Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) network when cell edge is detected on target AA or inter-AA HO to target AA otherwise. Lastly, a network re-entry is initiated to target AA from the VSAT when network re-entry is detected on target AA based on processing one of the SNR or the MCS throughput values in uplink and downlink.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for performing Handover (HO) in a Long-Range Land-To-Sea (LRLS) wireless network, comprising:\n receiving, by a HO management system of a Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), one or more configuration parameters from the CPE, wherein the CPE comprises an active Antenna Array (AA) communicating with a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) and one or more inactive AAs; retrieving, by the HO management system, based on data traffic between the CPE and the BTS, at least one of, Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) values on uplink and downlink corresponding to the active AA or at least one adjacent neighbor AA of the active AA, wherein the SNR values are retrieved by scanning at least one adjacent neighbor AA of the active AA based on the configuration parameters, wherein the at least one adjacent neighbor of the active AA corresponds to the one or more inactive AAs that are neighbors of the active AA, and Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) throughput values on the uplink and the downlink corresponding to the active AA and immediate neighbor AA pair of the active AA, wherein the MCS throughput values are retrieved by dwelling on each of the immediate neighbor AA pair of the active AA based on the configuration parameters, wherein the immediate neighbor AA pair of the 0 th  AA among \u2018N\u2019 AA's is represented as N1 and N2 and wherein N1=(N+1) mod(N) and N2=(N\u22121) mod (N) wherein 0 th  AA is the active AA with \u2018N\u2019 adjacent neighbors of the active AA; determining, by the HO management system, a target AA based on one of the SNR values or the MCS throughput values on the uplink and the downlink; and initiating, by the HO management system, a HO from active AA to the determined target AA, for performing an inter-AA HO.
