Optimization of Signal Coverage Area in Mobile Communication Networks

This study presents the optimization of signal coverage area in third generation WCDMA technology of mobile communication networks, aim at improving signal coverage area or overcoming the presence dead zone in mobile communication network. Various parameters that affect Signal coverage area in mobile communication network were determined. Optimization mathematical model based on Lagrange mathematical method was developed in line with the necessary parameters and characteristics. The developed mathematical model was simulated using MATLAB and Wolfram Mathematical Software using data obtain from mobile communication Network ‘A’ at Asaba, Delta State. The obtained data were number of duplex channels, frequency, load capacity of the base station, interference, distance power received, power transmitted etc. The result obtain are the critical points with fade-off of the radio signal. The coverage area indicates a non-linear function, therefore to minimize threshold parameter such as interference; pathloss and power received values will increase as the coverage area of the base station increases.
