Location Areas
Location areas are used to divide the radio area into as many as four locally sub-
divided supply ranges. The system knows the location area in which a handset is
located and only needs to send messages to the handset within that location area.
Location area partitioning helps to reduce the system load caused by the signal-
ling of incoming calls.
Fig. 3.15: Example of location areas
Distributing radio units among several location areas only makes sense as of a cer-
tain system size. The radio units are allocated by means of configuration. For a
description of the best way to group the radio units of a system in location areas,
see Page 3.54.
