Abstract
DVB-H(Digital Video Broadcasting for Handhold) is a new standard, currently being developed, which defines mobile enhancements for the DVB-T (DVB-Terrestrial) standard. For the reception of service via mobile handheld devices, seamless mobility and power saving are essential requirements of DVB-H. For seamless handover, the receiver should monitor neighboring cells and it increases the power consumption. And so, power efficient handover scheme to support both mobility and power saving is required. In this paper, we propose power efficient handover scheme to reduce power consumption by reducing the number of frequency scanning during the handover. Through the numerical evaluation, we analyze the performance of handover schemes.
