Abstract—Long term evolution (LTE) is the next generation
after UMTS system which developed by 3GPP release 8. LTE as the fourth generation provides a high transmission speed and high mobility to the user. In this paper we concern about the mobility performance. In order to see the mobility performance, handover scenario is chosen. Handover scenario is based on lena-x2-handover-measure script which provided in network simulator (ns-3). The ns-3 is used to simulate the x2-handover using lena-x2-handover-measure. Lena-x2-handover-measure instantiates one UE attached to serving eNodeB and moves toward neighbor eNodeB. The focus is on the impact of A2 and A4 event based on measurement report known as reference signal receive power (RSRP) and reference signal receive quality (RSRQ) on x2-handover performance in different parameters such as velocity, distance and eNodeB transmitted power. Receive power is calculated using Friis path loss equation and later it will be compared with the simulation result. .

I. INTRODUCTION Sometimes, when you are browsing internet in your
car/bus, the internet is slower or even disconnect because 3G networks coverage cannot cover maximally while you are moving at high speed. Technically, this problem happened because the handover/hand-off is failure. LTE as the next generation provides a lot of features such as a very high data speed and low transfer delay which allow the user to use many application simultaneously without any disconnection and buffering although the user moves with very high speed movement.
LTE is the fourth generation after UMTS (3G) network, which developed by the third generation partnership project (3GPP) release 8. LTE provides a higher transmission speed up to 100 Mbps in the downlink and 75 Mbps in the uplink using orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) technique respectively. By integrating it with multiple inputs and multiple outputs (MIMO) technology, LTE can achieve 300 Mbps throughput.
Comparing to UMTS network, the LTE only uses packet switched domain which makes the architecture simpler than the UMTS, hence the latency will be lower. The architecture of LTE comprise of elements, which are evolved node B (eNodeB), serving gateway (S-GW), packet data network gateway (P-GW), home subscriber service (HSS), mobility management entity (MME), and policy and charging rule function (PCRF).
The eNodeB manages all radio functionality on the control plane as well as the user plane. S-GW and P-GW are responsible as a router between user with the network and the outside network respectively. HSS is used as a database which holds subscriber information. MME manages the mobility functionality between user and network such as tracking the location of user equipment (UE). PCRF is resided in PGW which performs managing and controlling data session, for example Voice over IP (VoIP), the PCRF will initiate the dedicated bearer.
The LTE system uses also protocol stack, particularly in E-UTRAN. Protocol stack is associated with the interface, hence each network element can exchanging the data and signaling message. In LTE, protocol has two plane; User plane and Control plane. User plane handles data which interest to the UE, while Control plane handles signaling message which related to the network elements.
Protocol stack also comprise of two layers, which are Transport network layer and Radio network layer (user plane and control plane). Transport network layer is used to transport information and signaling message from one point to another point. For the air interface, the LTE system has two level interfaces which are No-Access Stratum (NAS) and Access Stratum (AS) as shown in following figure:
2014 2nd International Conference on Information and Communication Technology (ICoICT)

Fig.1. Non access stratum and Access stratum (green)
Air interface is divided into two levels because there is no direct path between UE and MME. The signaling message between UE and MME uses Non-Access stratum, and transported using access stratum protocol of LTE-Uu and S1 interfaces. In order to transport data between UE and eNodeB, they use LTE-Uu interface. LTE-Uu is one of air interface transport protocol. The air interface transport protocol uses 2 layers of OSI model, which are physical layer and data link layer that comprises of MAC, RLC and PDCP.
When the UE moves with a high speed, it need also high data speed so that the data can arrive in time manner. This mechanism should be handled by the protocols. In case of doing x2-handover, x2 application (X2-AP) takes an important role. The X2 interface of control plane is used in handover procedure, particularly to prepare and perform handover. In the other side, X2-user plane is required for downlink data forwarding when handover happened. Forwarding means that the data will be sent to UE while UE moves to the target eNodeB. Besides protocol, UE also gives a big contribution in handover process, because in handover there is measurements process that should be taken by UE before handover decision made by eNodeB. The measurements are known as reference signal receive power (RSRP) and reference signal receive quality (RSRQ). The RSRP and RSRQ are measured when UE is going to move to another BTS, i.e. these measurement measures for serving and neighbor eNodeB. When these measurements meet the criteria (see table I) for making handover, then serving eNodeB will trigger handover. In this case we only consider A2 and A4 event to trigger handover.
TABLEI. Events and triggering conditions [1]
Event Triggering Condition A1 Serving becomes better than threshold A2 Serving becomes worse than threshold
A3 Neighbor becomes offset better than serving
A4 Neighbor becomes better than threshold A5 Serving becomes worse than threshold1and neighbor becomes better than threshold2
In addition, the propagation loss used in this paper is Friis
path loss model. Propagation loss should be concern in order to prevent a failure handover. Some parameters such as distance, velocity and eNB transmitted power will affect the handover result by impacting those measurements. It could be happened since they have relation with the propagation loss that we used. In this paper, we used ns-3 to evaluate the x2-handover
The rest of the paper is organized as follows. In section II, we present introduction to ns-3 with some theories of x2-handover, measurement report (RSRP and RSRQ), and Friis path loss model. In section III, there will be a brief explanation about simulation design, how the configuration and environment are. In section IV, we discuss the performance of x2-handover in ns-3 and the impact of those parameters with RSRP and RSRQ. In section V, about conclusion and future work recommendation.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Introduction to ns- 3 NS - 3 is an acronym for Network Simulator Version 3. Ns-
3 is free software with GNU-GPL license version 2. As the name implies, NS-3 is used to create network simulation or to display communication network. NS-3 can be used for the purpose of research, and education. Ns-3 is a discrete-event network simulator which uses phyton and c++ programming language to create a program.
B. X2-Handover Handover is a process in which UE moves from one
eNodeB to another eNodeB. In LTE, there are two handovers; S1-handover and X2-handover. This paper focuses on x2-handover. Basically x2-handover is nearly the same as normal handover in UMTS. However x2-handover performs handover via X2-interface, no need RNC since its functionality has merged within eNodeB. Because handover in LTE is hard handover, the connection of UE to source eNodeB has to be disconnected before air interface to target eNodeB established [2].
Moreover, in x2-handover, the radio handover does not involve the others components except eNodeB, hence the MME and SGW are not aware that handover has successful because SGW focus on forwarding data to source eNodeB in order to prevent packet loss, while the MME focus on its responsible to change the path of UE from serving eNodeB to the neighbor eNodeB.
In ns-3, x2-handover has already built, namely LENA module. LENA is abbreviation of LTE-EPC Network simulAtion. LENA module provides two scripts example of x2-handover, which are lena-x2-handover and lena-x2-handover-measure. As the explanation in abstract, lena-x2-handover-measure is chosen. In lena-x2-handover-measure, x2 interface that used to attach serving eNodeB to the neighbor eNodeB is implemented by point to point (p2p) link [3] i.e. using IP address. The point to point link is attached by p2p device in order to send and receive X2 messages between eNodeBs through control plane and user plane of X2 protocol interface.
C. RSRP and RSRQ RSRP and RSRQ are two types of measurement in LTE.
These measurements are defined in 3GPP [4]. In LTE system, there are two kinds of measurements. The measurements measure the signal power and the signal quality. The signal power is known as RSRP, while the signal quality is RSRQ.
2014 2nd International Conference on Information and Communication Technology (ICoICT)
978-1-4799-3580-2/14/$31.00 ©2014 IEEE 437
RSRP is abbreviation of reference signal received power, while RSRQ is reference signal received quality. RSRP is reported by PHY layer in dBm while RSRQ in dB.These measurements are performed by the UE when UE want to move from one eNodeB to another eNodeB, known as handover. During the movement process, UE measures the reference signal from serving eNodeB and neighbor eNodeB. The UE will send the measurement report back to the serving eNodeB jointly with the physical cell identity (PCI) of the cell. PCI is obtained with the Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS). The PSS is sent by the eNB each 5 sub frames and in detail in the sub frames 1 and 6. The report is used by the eNodeB to determine when handover should be triggered so that UE can move to the neighbor eNodeB. Theoretically RSRP is reference signal receive power. RSRP is a RSSI type of measurement. It measures the average received power over the resource elements that carry cell-specific (RNTI) reference signals (RS) within certain frequency bandwidth. RSRQ is a C/I type of measurement and it indicates the quality of the received reference signal. It is defined as
(1)
The carrier RSSI (Receive Strength Signal Indicator) measures the average total received power observed only in OFDM symbols containing reference symbols for antenna port 0 (i.e., OFDM symbol 0 & 4 in a slot) in the measurement bandwidth over N resource blocks. The total received power of the carrier RSSI includes the power from co-channel serving & non-serving cells, adjacent channel interference, thermal noise, etc. The RSRQ measurement provides additional information when RSRP is not sufficient to make a reliable handover or cell re-selection decision. In the procedure of handover, the LTE specification provides the flexibility of using RSRP, RSRQ, or both.
D. Friis Path loss In wireless communication, there are multipath and fading.
Multipath happened when there is a signal which reflects in some different paths from the transmitter to the receiver. This phenomenon can make the received signal good if it is constructive or bad otherwise. Bad received signal occurred because of destructive interference which can make a fading [5]. Fading is a situation where the signal power drops to a very low level. When the UE moves, then the path of signal changes, so that the interference will change also the fading level as a function of time. As a consequence, the receive signal will be lower than transmitted signal, called path loss. Propagation loss or path loss can be calculated by dividing received power with transmitted power. Friis propagation model provides equation to find out that propagation loss, as shown follow

III. SIMULATION DESIGN
A. Design Environment LTE has already modeled within the simulator called
LENA module that provides some LTE scripts, one of the examples is lena-x2-handover-measures.Lena-x2-handover-meausre is an automatic X2-based handover based on the measurement which performed by UE.
This program instantiates two eNodeB, attaches one UE to the serving eNodeB as illustrated in figure:
Fig.2. X2-Handover topology
The UE moves between both eNodeBs with constant velocity 20 m/s. While UE is moving, it measures RSRP and RSRQ and send them back to the serving eNodeB. Based on the measurement report, the serving eNodeB will send handover request to the neighbor eNodeB when the measurement report of neighbor eNodeB consider as better than serving eNodeB. The distance (d) between UE, serving eNodeB and neighbor eNodeB is 1000 m, hence the total path that UE should be taken is 3000 m and the duration of simulation is about 150 second.
B. Tools and Softwares For the tools, we use Computer or laptop which can be
installed the ns-3 and Ubuntu operating system. In this case we use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. For the software, we need ns-3, netanim, and microsoft excel. Network Simulator version 3 we use ns-3 version 3.18 which was release on april 2013.Network Animator (NetAnim).Network animator is used to display animation result based on xml trace file as well as display handover request time. Microsoft Excel 2010 is used to make a graph based on simulation result, particularly RSRP and RSRQ values.
C. Changing some parameters In this simulation, there are three parameters (velocity,
distance, and eNodeB transmitted power) that want to be change in order to see the relation between those parameters with the RSRP and RSRQ.
IV. SIMULATION RESULTS We have evaluated x2-handover in ns-3. We studied the
performance of x2-handover throughout network animator (NetAnim). NetAnim used to display the simulation result in animation. The result of simulation is plotted using GNU-Plot and Microsoft Excel 2010.

According to table 3, x2-handover in ns-3 is done in 4 modes. The first mode is idle mode (yellow color), the second is connected mode (green), the third is handover execution (blue), and the last is handover complete/success (orange). For your information, in this simulation, the velocity is increased by 10, which means 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 m/s. In this case the speed of UE is 30 m/s. For the other cases, they performed similar when UE speed is 30 m/s, the different is about the time in blue and orange color. For the others scenario (distance and eNB transmitted power). The results are the same, except the time for handover execution and handover success. In addition, to get more understanding about x2-handover in ns-3, we used NetAnim to show the animation as shown in following figure:
Fig.3. X2-Handover animation using NetAnim
There are three nodes in red colors. The first one is serving eNodeB node which located at 1000 m from UE. The middle one is UE node and the last one is neighbor eNodeB which is located at 2000 m from UE. Besides that, figure3 shows the handover request time from serving cell to neighbor cell. The time request happen at 50.6 seconds, which means the UE, is going to handover at 1518 m or 518 m far away from the source eNodeB. For more detail, see the following figure:
Fig.4. Handover occurred when velocity is 30 m/s
In Fig.4, there are two lines which indicate the values of serving and neighbor cell’s reference signal receive power (RSRP). Both lines look similar but actually different. The different is just about time. If the reader sees from the figure, the blue line starts with higher RSRP value rather than the orange one. It means that the blue line is possessed by serving while the orange is belongs to neighbor eNodeB. The reason

why the graphs look identical, it is because serving eNodeB and neighbor eNOdeB use the same transmitted power, which is 20 dBm. In addition, handover request occur with the RSRP values which are -97.9745 dBm (serving cell) and -97.4558 dBm (neighbor cell) as well as the RSRQ values, which are -6.29387 dB and -5.77516 respectively. Again, for the other cases and scenario (distance and eNB transmitted power), they performed similar when UE speed is 30 m/s, the different is about the time to request handover and the values of RSRP and RSRQ.
B. The impact of velocity
Fig.5. Reference Signal Receive Power for all cases (30 – 100m/s)
Fig.6. RSRQ when velocity is changed from 30-100 m/s
The simulation results can be seen in figure 5 and 6, which is the impact of increasing the velocity with RSRP and RSRQ respectively. RSRP1 belongs to ‘source’ eNB and RSRP2 to ‘target’ eNB as well as the RSRQ1 (source) and RSRQ2 (target). The values of RSRP and RSRQ decreased if the velocity increased. It means that when the velocity of UE is slow, it gets a good signal power and quality. In addition, the figures showed that RSRP and RSRQ got maximum values whenever UE was located near to eNB.
C. The impact of distance
Fig.7. RSRP of serving eNB when eNB Tx power changed from 30-100 dBm
Fig.8. RSRQ of serving eNB when eNBTx power changed from 30-100dBm
Figure 7 and 8 showed the graph of RSRP1 and RSRQ when eNB transmitted power increased from 30 dBm to 100 dBm. If the eNB transmitted power increased, hence the RSRP and RSRQ increased (but not significant) since RSRQ express in dB.
RSRP1 means the signal power of serving eNB while the RSRQ is the signal quality of neighbor eNB. In this case, we didn’t show RSRP2 and RSRQ2 because the graph is nearly the same. The difference is only about the time, means the highest value of RSRP of serving eNB achieved at 50 second while the neighbor at 100 second (since the velocity 20 m/s and distance to target eNB 2000 m). For the signal quality (RSRQ) of serving eNB, the maximum value occurred when the time is 50 second.

D. The impact of eNodeB transmitted power
Fig 9. RSRP of serving eNodeB when distance changed from 100-2km
Fig 10. RSRQ of serving eNB when distance changed from 100-2km
Figure 9 and 10 showed the graph of RSRP and RSRQ when the distance increased by 100 m each case. The RSRP and RSRQ increased if the distance is decreased.
V. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE RECOMMENDATION From the simulation result, x2-handover is performed in six
steps: Idle mode (UE is doing cell selection), idle to connect request (eNodeB asked to be attached by UE), connected mode (UE has connected with serving), connect to handover (HO) request (UE is going to change the BTS), HO start to HO success, Connected mode (UE has connect to neighbor eNodeB). For all scenario, the idle mode and idle to connecting request happened at 0.016 sec and 0.0202143 sec respectively. And then the average delay between HO requests to HO start is 1 second and the delay between starting HO and HO success is 4 milisecond. In addition, handover occur when UE is located between serving and neighbor eNodeB.
For the first scenario, the simulation result shows that RSRP and RSRQ will increase if the velocity decreases, because according to Friis equation, velocity affects the value of doppler frequency. The doppler frequency increase as velocity increase, hence the path loss will be decrease. In addition, the comparison of RSRP shows that the different between calculation result and simulation result is very small only 0.027973984 dBm. For the second scenario, if the transmitted power increased, then the measurement report also increased since receive power is proportional to the power signal. In addition, the comparison of RSRP shows that the different between calculation result and simulation result is very small; the error is only 0.021 %. For the third scenario, if the distance between UE and eNodeB is increased, then RSRP will be decreased as well as the RSRQ. Because, according to Friis formula, distance is inversely proportional with the receive power. In addition, the comparison of RSRP shows that the different between calculation result and simulation result is very small; the error is only 0.198 %.
We recommend that there should be at least three events for x2-handover performance which are A2, A3, and A4 event to get a better performance result. Moreover, the implementation of this work can also be done in the future based on the result of this simulation.
