Definitions
- This invention relates in general to radio communication systems, and more particularly, to communication resource allocation in radio communication systems.
- a radio communication system such as a cellular system, typically employs geographically dispersed transceiver sites to support subscriber units operating over a wide coverage area. Ordinarily, the sites are arranged such that each provides coverage for a particular geographic region, with some overlap in coverage.
- a subscriber unit interfaces with the radio communication system through a particular transceiver site, referred to herein as a server site or cell site. As a subscriber unit moves from one location to another, it may be advantageous to switch server affiliation from one site to another, in order to maintain a high-quality communication link.
- the process of switching server sites during an ongoing communication session is generally referred to in the art as hand-off or hand-over.
- the hand-off decision process usually involves the determination of the quality of signals between the subscriber unit and its server site, and the availability and suitability of other potential server sites that may be in communication range of the subscriber unit.
- the hand-off decision may be made using information gathered by the server site, information gathered by the subscriber unit, or a combination of both.

- the system assigns the subscriber unit to one of the potential hand-over sites based on the predicted loading conditions, step 640.
- the subscriber unit 401 searches for an available control channel corresponding to its band and protocol capabilities.
- the system queries the subscriber unit for its band and protocol capabilities, and assigns the unit a particular protocol and band, as determined by the system, to provide the best available communication channel.
- the system enters the subscriber unit's location and RSSI information into its database, which database includes information from various units operating within the coverage area.
- the system receives a series of transmissions from the subscriber unit 401 , as the subscriber unit moves about within the system's coverage area.
- the system tracks the subscriber unit's movement on its system map and maintains the unit's location history to indicate the current direction of travel. Using the knowledge of the travel routes within the coverage area, and the unit's direction and speed, the system predicts the next likely site with which the subscriber unit will be affiliated.
- the subscriber unit is about to enter the coverage area 304 for the server site 314. But there are no resources available at server site 314. However, the system has predicted that the subscriber unit will be at location 456, it's predicted future location, and has also determined that communication resources will be available at server site 316 when the subscriber unit is at location 456. In this example, the subscriber unit has capabilities in the 800 MHz and 900 MHz band, and can operate using the integrated Dispatch Enhanced Network (iDENTM) and the
- the subscriber unit is operating on the 800 MHz band using the iDENTM protocol.
- the system directs the subscriber unit to switch to the 900 MHz band to continue the call.
- there are no channels available under the iDENTM protocol at the server site 316 but there are channels available using the AMPS protocol.
- the system causes another subscriber unit operating under the iDENTM protocol, but which has capabilities under the AMPS protocol, to switch service to the AMPS protocol. The system is then able to assign a channel under the iDENTM protocol to the subscriber unit 401, when the subscriber unit arrives at location 456.
- the present invention provides significant advantages over the prior art.
- the system By keeping track of the location history of a subscriber unit, the system is able to predict a future location for the subscriber unit.
- the predicted location information together with information on the capabilities of subscriber units within the system, is used by the system to allocate or reallocate communication resources in an optimized manner. While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been illustrated and described, it will be clear that the invention is not so limited. Numerous modifications, changes, variations, substitutions and equivalents will occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
