Tracking in WiMAX Networks depending on RSS-based measurements

Mussa Bshara; Leo Van Biesen

Abstract

Tracking in WiMAX networks is gaining a lot of interest; especially after the mobile WiMAX became one of the emerging technologies that promote low-cost deployment and evolving to provide IP-based services of high mobility including providing location-based services (LBS). The SCORE values are RSS-based values, used by the standard WiMAX modems to evaluate the connection quality between the subscriber station (SS) and the available base stations (BSs). The advantage of using the SCORE values is the possibility to obtain them for all the available BSs simultaneously and without adding any extra software or hardware. But the disadvantage lies in their low accuracy comparing to the received signal strength (RSS) values.
