Provisioning of quality of service (QoS) is a key issue in any multi-media system. However, in wireless systems, supporting QoS requirements of different traffic types is a more challenging problem due to the need to simultaneously minimize two performance metrics - the probability of dropping a handover call and the probability of blocking a new call. Since QoS requirements are not as stringent for non-real-time traffic, as opposed to real-time traffic, more calls can be accommodated by releasing some bandwidth from the already admitted non-real-time traffic calls. If the released bandwidth that is used to handle handover calls is larger than the released bandwidth that is used for new calls, then the resulting probability of dropping a handover call is smaller than the probability of blocking a new call. In this paper, we propose an efficient call admission control algorithm that relies on adaptive multi-level bandwidth-allocation scheme for non-realtime calls. The scheme allows reduction of the call dropping probability, along with an increase in the bandwidth utilization. The numerical results show that the proposed scheme is capable of attaining negligible handover call dropping probability without sacrificing bandwidth utilization.

In this paper, we study a dynamic price-based call admission control algorithm for communication networks. When a call arrives at the network, the network calculates the price for the call such that its expected revenue is maximized. The optimal price is dynamically adjusted based on some information of the call, and the congestion level of the network. If the call accept the price, it is admitted. Otherwise, it is rejected. Simulation results show that our dynamic pricing algorithm provides higher call admission ratio and lower price than the static algorithm [1][2], even though they provide almost the same revenue.

In this paper, we proposed the FNCAC (fuzzy neural call admission control) scheme of the ATM networks which used the benefits of fuzzy logic controller and the learning abilities of the neural network to solve the call admission control problems. The new call in ATM networks is connected if QoS(quality of service) of the current calls is not affected due to the connection of a new call. The neural network CAC(call admission control) system is predictable system because the neural network is able to learn by the input/output pattern. We applied the fuzzy inference on the learning rate and momentum constant for improving the learning speed of the fuzzy neural network. The excellence of the proposed algorithm was verified using measurement of learning numbers in the traditional neural network method and fuzzy neural network method by simulation. We found that the learning speed of the FNCAC based on the fuzzy learning rules is 5 times faster than that of the CAC method based on the traditional neural network theory.

In the WCDMA mobile multimedia communication system, the adaptive array antenna IS adopted to improve the performance of the system by reducing inter-user interference using antenna beam control. Usually, the interference resulted from the higher data rate users is much more significant to the lower data rate users than the other way around, so the overall performance can be enhanced by reducing the interference from higher data rate users. In order to maximize the efficiency of adaptive antenna operation, an optimal call admission control, especially during handoff, adaptive to the data rates is a critical problem. In this paper, We propose a call admission control algorithm based on the Soft QoS concept for the efficient processing of the handoff of higher data rate calls, and an adaptive handoff control mechanism according to the data rates. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated by computer simulation that it accommodates high data rate users among many lower data rate users much better, and the average call blocking probability for lower rate users becomes much lower than the conventional call admission control algorithm.

This paper presents an effective call admission control algorithm using the Common Pool on the virtual path in ATM networks. Call admission control decides whether or not to accept a new call, so as to ensure the service quality of both individiual existing calls and of the new call itself. In the proposed algorithm, a new call is accepted when the sum of the bandwidths of existing calls and of the new call will not exceed lind capacity. If the sum of their bandwidths exceed link capacity, reserved bandwidth of Common Pool is considreed to accept the new call. Computer simulation results using a simuple network model are algorithm given to evaluate accuracy and call blocking probability by the proposed method.

Network traffic measurements show that the data traffic on packet switched networks has the self-similar features which is different from the traditional traffic models such as Poisson distribution or Markovian process model. Most of the call admission control researches have been done on the performance analysis of a single network switch. It is necessary to consider the performance analysis of the proposed admission control scheme under interconnected switch environment because the data traffic transmits through switches in networks. From the simulation results, it is shown that the call admission control scheme may not operate properly on the interconnected switch even though the scheme works well on a single switch. In this parer, we analyze the cell loss probability, utilization and self-similarity of output ports of the interconnected networks switch by using shared buffer memory management schemes and propose the new call admission control scheme considering the interconnected network switches under self-similar traffic environments.

This paper proposes a new call admission control method to enhance the reverse link capacity of a cell with heavy traffic in the CDMA PCS system under the uneven traffic load between cells. Since the capacity of a cell in the CDMA system is restricted by the total interference caused by terminals in the own cell and the adjacent cells, we can enhance the capacity of a cell by reducing the interference from other cells if possible. Our power control method allows that the signal powers received in base stations with heavy traffic be larger than those received in base stations with light traffic in order to make the interference due to other cells in the cells with heavy traffic relatively small. In the previous study, it was assumed that the signal power received by each base station in the CDMA PCS system is same when the call admission control algorithm is implemented. We could show that the reverse link capacity of a cell in the CDMA PCS system can be increased about 20% under our call admission control method.

The capacity of the cell varies with the load of the home and neighboring cells. But most call admission control (CAC) algorithms do not consider the cell loading. In this paper a dynamic call admission control is proposed in a WCDMA system with traffic asymmetry. The proposed algorithm changes the CAC thresholds of new call and handoff call based on channel condition. The blocking and dropping probabilities can be controlled by adjusting these thresholds. The proposed algorithm guarantees the Qos of call class and priority between new call and handoff call. In addition, it can minimize the grade of service (GOS) value with the system throughput maintained.

In this paper, we propose and the call admission control mechanism that can improve the capacity of the wireless system for the non-uniform traffic load distribution based intelligent information in multiple cellular CDMA environment. The number of mobile stations that can be served simultaneously in a base station is limited by the amount of total interference received in CDMA system. Further, the average number of mobile stations in each cell may not be uniformly distributed. In this paper, considering this factors, the call admission control mechanism using the effective bandwidth concept is adapted to improve the system capacity of non-uniform traffic load distribution based intelligent information. Thus, the bandwidth for a new call can be varied dynamically for reducing the blocking rate of new calls and the dropping rate of handoff calls. The suggested call admission control mechanism is experimented through simulation by dynamically assigning the bandwidth to new and handoff calls. The simulation results show that the proposed call admission control mechanism can accommodate more mobile stations than the other methods in multiple cellular CDMA environment.

Coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) is considered to be a promising technique to improve the throughput for LTE-Advanced systems. One important approach for CoMP is Joint Transmission (JT). However, the analytical model of JT has not been fully studied, as user equipments (UEs) receiving the desired signals from an adjacent base station (BS) as well as serving BS, or only serving BS were not distinguished. We derive a new analytical model to describe the call admission control in JT based systems. The performance measures of interest are the call blocking probability, and resource utilization. Furthermore, we compare the performance of JT-based systems and non-JT- based systems. The analytical results are in reasonable agreement with the simulation results.
