dc.descriptionGlobal wireless networks enable mobile users to communicate regardless of their locations. Location management is an important part of the emerging wireless and mobile technology. A Personal Communication System (PCS) network must have an efficient way to keep track of the mobile users to deliver services effectively. Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) is a commonly accepted standard for mobility management of mobile users. Location management involves location tracking, and location information storage. Location management requires mobile users to register at various registration areas whenever they are on the move. The registration process may cause excessive signaling traffic and long service delays. To improve the efficiency of location tracking and avoid call set up delays, several strategies such as local anchor scheme, per-user caching scheme and several pointer forwarding schemes have been proposed in the past. In this paper, we propose a new "Two Level Single Chain Pointer Forwarding (TLSCP) Strategy" in which a two level hierarchy of level-1 and level-2 forwarding pointers reduced to single chain length are used. Organizing the pointers in a two level hierarchy and further restricting the pointer chain lengths at both the levels to single chain localizes the network signaling traffic and reduces the call set up delays. To justify the effectiveness of our proposed strategy, we develop an analytical model to evaluate the signaling cost. Our performance analysis shows that the proposed dynamic TLSCP scheme can significantly reduce the network signaling traffic and cost for different categories of users under different network conditions.
