Abstract
Future high densification wireless networks come with high handoff rates, which require knowledge of mobile speed. Mobile speed estimation is crucial for optimizing handover to reduce call drops and network signaling flow, optimize traffic scheduling, improve quality of service, achieve resource optimization, mobility load balancing, channel quality feedback enhancement, and energy efficiency. In this paper, we present a low complexity mobile speed estimation model using count of peaks and troughs of the received signal envelop. We simulated the model in Matlab® and our result shows that the model has a maximum error of 0.25 m/s. The model has two advantages. First, it does not require measurement of the received signal power; it only counts envelop peaks and troughs. Second, the model is independent of DC offset inherent in the radio receivers. However, the model has one limitation—it does not give the crossing component of a mobile’s velocity.
