  Abstract

Recently, there are growing interests in femto-cell for providing indoor users with various broadband multimedia services more efficiently. The technical issues regarding femto-cell such as interference management, self-organization, and resource allocation are now being intensively studied and investigated by researchers worldwide. In this paper, two novel schemes of neighboring cell list (NCL) management are proposed for the IEEE 802.16e system where a macro-cell and huge number of femto-cells coexist. The proposed schemes, named MS location-based neighboring cell list management and BS type-based neighboring cell list management, enable a mobile station (MS) to perform fast scanning and efficient handover by means of preselecting the candidate target femto-cells with high possibility for handover. The simulation result shows that the proposed schemes improve the MS's handover-related performance in terms of scanning power and scanning time compared with the conventional managements scheme of IEEE 802.16e system.
