In this paper, we develop an analytical model of the signaling costs due to location update and paging for the radio interface in mobile communications networks. This model accounts for the effects that the savings brought by different algorithms have on the total Location Management (LM) costs. It also takes into account the trade-off between the location update and paging costs, showing that those strategies that achieve savings in the location update costs deliver a larger overall improvement in the total LM costs than those algorithms focusing on the minimization of the paging costs. Moreover, leveraging the factors studied to obtain this model, we also analyze the overall LM costs including the fixed network part.
