Abstract : In our earlier work we proposed a novel rule-based approach for locating a mobile terminal (MT) in mobile cellular wireless networks. The scheme, which we called rule-based paging scheme (RBPS), significantly outperformed the GSM-adopted blanket paging scheme. We have found that when compared with the popular shortest distance first (SDF) scheme, results are again encouraging. However, in this work, we have discussed the real time implementation of our proposed scheme and compared performance of the RBPS-adopted blanket paging scheme with the GSM-adopted blanket paging scheme, as is most popularly practiced in real life. The scheme is a generic one and has the potential for use in the next generation wireless networks, irrespective of any standards.
