Performance Analysis of Two-Zone-Based Registration System with Timer in Wireless Communication Networks
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThe contribution is minimal. The paper is not organized well. More work on the organization is required as the proposed strategy, using a timer for the 2Z system, is introduced within the background (section 2. ).
The first two subsections of section 2 introduced the zone-based scheme. However, related works within this category are not presented.
A detailed description of the proposed system and how it works differently from other existing works is required.
The Conclusion section should summarize the findings, not present the scheme.
Sections and subsections are not orderly numbered.

Reviewer 2 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThe authors of this paper propose a 2Z system for managing two zones with a single registration area. My reviews are included below.
1.The introduction part is too short, Include a general diagram in the introduction part for a better understanding of the readers.
2.Include one paragraph describing the impact of the AI-powered zone-based registration approach and explain why AI is not employed.
3.Why is RAPTOR used for simulation?
4.Include a table with the results from Figs. 5 to 10 and explain briefly.
5.In the simulation model section, the system parameters for simulations must be referenced.
6.In the conclusion, explicitly define the system constraints.
7.Add one paragraph before the conclusion explaining the advantage of the proposed 2Z versus 1Z.

Reviewer 3 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThis work introduces a two-zone registration system with a timer for cellular communication systems, which improves the system performance when there is a chance of returning to the previous zone within that period of time.
Although the manuscript is well written and results look very good, I do not recommend publication in its current form due to the following reasons:
- The literature review must be extended and updated. Recent papers from high rank journals (like those from IEEE) should be included. If there are no such papers, then it is a sign that this subject is not of great interest nowadays to the academic community...
- Still on the literature review, in the current version the authors mention 17 related papers in a single paragraph. It would be great if they could discuss these related work in more detail, perhaps in a section or subsection, and present a table listing their main characteristics, so that it becomes easier for the reader to understand what are their flaws and what is this paper doing that is significantly novel.
- The numerical results section should include a comparison with some of the strategies discussed in the related work.
- The performance of the proposed method depends on some parameters that are related to the user. For instance, the call to mobility ratio depends on the user. So, how to optimize or learn the optimum system parameters on the fly?

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThere exist some typos that need correction such as "East to implement" in the advantage column Table 1.
What is the category of "so on [20-23]? second paragraph in the introduction.
Why the references in Table do not include the mentioned reference in the paragraph?
The revised manuscript still does not introduce the related work within the Zone-Based Registration Scheme. It only mentioned the references.
