automatically transfers the call to a new

Handoff operation
identifying a new base station.
re-allocating the voice and control channels
with the new base station.
System designers must specify an optimum level at which to
initiate a handoff.

Optimum signal level taken between (-90dBm to -100dBm)
This margin is given by
= Prhandoff Prminimum usable
cannot be too large or to small.
If is too large, unnecessary handoffs burden the MSC.
If is too small, there may be insufficient time to
complete handoff before a call is lost.
Fig (1) shows handoff situation.
Fig (2) shows where the hand off is not made and the
signal drops below the minimum acceptable level .
