Single Cell
Generally, only one cell is configured for environments such as the wireless home
terminal. Single cells are independent service areas, thus the cells do not affect one
another.
Configuration of single cells is illustrated in the Figure 3.11 below.
Figure 3.13 Single Cell Configuration
Multiple Cell
The multiple cell type is an environment where more than two cells are overlapped,
and where the service for the terminal in use can be maintained while the Station
travels between single cells.
The actual configuration may differ from the figure below since the service areas of
cells are altered depending on the positioning of the WBS24.

In order to provide a continuous service, the system must perform switch conversions
when terminals are traveling between different cells.
Especially in voice calls, the system must perform T-Switch conversions at
appropriate times in order to maintain the call signal.
Location Register
By registering the current location of the terminal in a multiple cell environment, the
system can easily transmit information to the terminal. Thus, the terminal shall
register its location at the system in case it travels between different cells.
