KIRK Wireless Server 1500 Installation and Maintenance
handset moves about the various coverage zones Base Stations have time to hand the call
off to another Base Station. .
If the overlap area is not enough (less than 9 to 14 meters / 30 to 45 feet), there is a risk of
dropping the connection while moving from one coverage area to another. This is
because of the time that the handset needs to scan for an alternative Base Station.
However, too much overlap results in a wasted coverage area.
If the alternative Base Station is not found while crossing the overlap into another area, a
channel handoff cannot take place and the connection to the solution will be dropped
because the handset is now out-of-range.
