16e Mobility Management Overview
Scanning
Normal scanning
Scanning neighbor BSs within scheduled scanning intervals
Autonomous scanning
MS initiated scanning
No serving BS scheduled scanning period is required
No need to send scanning report to the serving BS
The MS may scan different frequency bands
Handover
Normal handover with/without optimization
Seamless handover
Pre-update CID and TEK during HO preparation
Proceeds to data transmission immediately without association or initial ranging
Target BS is fully synchronized (in time and in frequency) with the serving BS
MS is assumed to be synchronized with the UL/DL channel of the target BS
MDHO/FBSS

16m Scanning Scenarios (1/2)
Different cell type should be considered in scanning process
Neighbor cell advertisement should take into account different cell types to
reduce broadcast overhead
Macro cell
Micro cell
Femto cell
3
16m Scanning Scenarios (2/2)
During cell reselection, the MS scans primary (fully-configured) carriers of
neighbor BSs
The MS may also scan other primary carriers of its serving BS

16m User Scenarios
Different HO procedures for different user scenarios
16e HO Procedures
16m User Scenario
Normal HO (with/without optimization)
Low mobility users
Seamless HO
Cell edge users
Seamless HO with initial ranging or association
Pre-update CID and TEK during HO preparation just
like seamless HO
Proceeds to data transmission right after DL
synchronization and CDMA initial ranging
The DL synchronization and CDMA initial ranging
may be done beforehand (e.g. during scanning with
association)
Serving BS
Low mobility user:
Normal HO
(w/wo optimization)
High mobility user:
Seamless HO with initial ranging or association
- CID/TEK pre-update
- DL synchronization & CDMA initial ranging
- Data transmission after DL/UL synchronization
High mobility users
Cell edge user:
Seamless HO
- CID/TEK pre-update
- Data transmission before initial ranging

Other Handover Design Considerations
More complete handover exception handling
Loss of HO messages is not well handled in 16e
In case of HO exception occurs, the MS may “handover back” to its serving BS, i.e. serving
BS becomes the target BS
More parameters and criteria for handover decision making
PHY signaling report
Loading (system loading, carrier loading)
MS Mobility pattern (e.g. speed, direction)
MS location
Cross-layer design to minimize the handover interruption time
Link-layer HO should notify upper layers to establish the new data path as early as possible
Handover optimization between different cell types
16e cell, 16m cell, macro cell, micro cell, femto cell
Handover with multi-carrier support
Multi-carrier HO provides better efficiency and QoS guarantee as compared with singlecarrier HO
See C80216m-08/564 for multi-carrier HO design

SDD Text Proposal
Add the following text into Session 10 of the SDD (IEEE 802.16m-08/003)
----------------------- text begin ----------------------------------------------------------------------------10.x Data/Control plane
10.x.y MAC Handover Procedures
10.x.y.1 Network topology acquisition
The BS should take into account types of the neighbor cells to be advertised in order to reduce
the overhead from the broadcast of neighbor cell advertisement messages.
During cell reselection, the MS may prioritize the BSs to be scanned according to their cell
types. The MS scans primary (fully-configured) carriers of neighbor BSs. The MS may also
scan other primary carriers of its serving BS.
10.x.y.2 Handover Process
User scenarios (e.g. mobility, location) should be taken into account in the selection of proper
handover procedures. In order to reduce the handover interruption time, the MS may request a
scheduled sleeping interval for the purpose of network reentry. Multiple RF carriers may also
be used for handover operations to reduce the handover interruption time.
10.x.y.3 Handover with Multi-Carrier Support
