Title: [STDS-802-16-MOBILE] [Handoff] Comments / contribs deferred/rejected/withdrawn in Shenzhen to be considered by handoff adhoc

All,

 

This is a recap of the discussion for the multiple frequency assignement of the same sector. There are two options to handle this configuration:

 

Option 1:

Change the definition of a sector to allow multiple frequency assignments. This implies to change DCD message to include multiple FA_IDs and allow a handover type of intra-sector inter-frequency handoff.

 

Option 2:

The sector definition remains the same: a sector of single frequency assignment. The DCD message remains to include one FA_ID. For multiple frequency assignement for the same sector, each frequency channel will be the treated as a sector, hence, the identity of a sector should be defined as: BS ID, sector ID and FA_ID. The handover between frequencies can be treated the same as inter-sector inter-frequency handoff.

 

Please provide your comments and hopefully, we can agree on one option.
