Mobility management is an important aspect of the LEO systems. In terrestrial wireless network, the movement of the user triggers the location updating and determines the paging scheme, while in LEO satellite systems, the location updating and paging is mainly based on the movement of satellite. Terrestrial location management techniques must be altered to fit LEO systems. This paper introduces a modified movement based location update and paging scheme in LEO networks. In this scheme we propose the meta cell concept, which includes two spot beams of one satellite. First we present the location management scheme based on the architecture with meta cell location area. Then an analytical model is applied to formulate the cost of location updating and location paging for the and movement meta cell based dynamic location update scheme. The comparison of performance between meta cell architecture method and conventional signal spot cell architecture method is provided to demonstrate the cost effectiveness and robust of the proposed scheme under various parameters. To reduce the impact of meta cell architecture on location paging cost, we present forced location update strategy which used in the cases that the meta cell includes the two spot beams from different satellites.
