The soft handoffs between two adjacent MSC's should be employed to support the calls requesting handoffs to an MSC while minimizing the undesirable ping pong phenomenon of back-and-forth handoffs between two adjacent cells in conventional hard handoffs. In this paper, the soft handoff scheme between two MSC's is considered using the trunk between the packet routers for the two MSC's. The trunk network is proposed to support the inter-MSC soft handoff scheme in the service area with many MSC's. The probability that a soft handoff to an adjacent MSC will be blocked due to the shortage of the trunk capacity is derived.

This paper evaluates the performance of three methods for predicting resources requested by mobile's calls and a call admission algorithm based on these predicting methods respectively in wireless networks. The first method is based on Wiener prediction model and the second method is based on the MMOSPRED algorithm and the third method is based on the neural network. The proposed call admission algorithm is based on prioritized handoff call in resource allocation. The resources for future handoff calls are therefore predicted and reserved in advance, and then new calls are admitted as long as the remaining resources are sufficient. We compare their performances in terms of prediction error, new call blocking and handoff dropping probabilities by simulation. Results show that the CAC based on Wiener prediction model performs favorably due to exact resources prediction.

In this paper, we propose the call control scheme that can improve the capacity of the wireless system for the non-uniform traffic load distribution and the multiple types of services in multiple cells CDMA system. 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. Considering this factors, the call admission control scheme using the effective bandwidth concept is adapted in this paper. 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 control scheme is experimented through a simulation by dynamically assigning the bandwidth to new and handoff calls. The simulation results show that the proposed call control scheme can accommodate more mobile stations than the other methods in multiple cells environment.

This study addresses the analytic models for estimating the capacity and performance of the multi-carrierCDMA system where several carriers would be assigned to a single cell to accommodate the required trafficdemand. Two key features of the multi-carrier CDMA system, carrier selections of new calls and inter-camerhard handoffs, are accommodated in the models, Computation experiments are conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed model.

We present a simulation result to the analysis of the effects of cell residence time distributions upon the expected channel occupancy time based on an analytic mobility model. Numerical examples show that exponential distribution provides upper and lower bound to the expected channel occupancy times of new calls and handoff calls. This fact reveals that the assumption of exponential distribution as the cell residence time distribution as the cell residence time distribution may over- or under-estimate cellular mobile systems.

For very large multimedia traffic to be supported successfully in wireless network environment, it is necessary to provide Quality-of-Service(QoS) guarantees between mobile hosts(clients). In order to guarantee the Qos, we have to keep the call blocking probability below target value during handoff session. However, the QoS negotiated between the client and the network may not be guaranteed due to lack of available channels for traffic in the new cell, since mobile clients should be able to continue their on-going sessions. In this paper we propose a efficient load-balancing algorithm based on the adaptive bandwidth reservation scheme for enlarging available channels in a cell. We design a new method to predict the mobility of clients using MPT(mobility profile table). This method is then used to reserve a part of bandwidths for handoff calls to its adjacent cells and this reserved bandwidth can be used for handoff call prior to new connection requests. If the number of free channels is also under a low threshold value, our scheme use a load-balancing algorithm with a adaptive bandwidth reservation. In order to evaluate the performance of our algorithm, we measure the metrics such as the blocking probability of new calls and dropping probability of handoff calls, and compare with other existing schemes.

In this paper, we propose the method which provides efficient sub-channel allocation for handoff and new call supporting multi-media service in AMC-based OFDMA system. Firstly, we apply the multi-band method which provides different AMC method according to the location of user terminals. Also, in OFDMA system environment that a base station has a lot of sub-channels, we adopt the sub-channel allocation scheme that provides a higher priority to handoff call and real-time service about handoff and new calls with multi-meida service. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme plays a role in increasing the number of new and handoff calls meeting the required blocking rate.

Most handoff control schemes try to offer the negotiated QoS by resource reservation for handoff calls. However, it is very difficult to determine the optimal amount of reservation resource for the handoff calls, and sometimes a considerable waste of network resource may be caused. In order to solve this problem, we propose a 2-level resource reservation and call admission control scheme. In our scheme, handoffs are classified into two types (primary and secondary) based on how often they occur and are dealt with in different ways. Simulation results show that our scheme may allow more efficient utilization of network resource without degrading QoS comparing with the existing with legacy handoff control scheme.

In the wireless adaptive modulation and coding(AMC) systems, the modulation type of user's connection can be changed dynamically. and the ongoing connection might fail due to the change of modulation. In this paper, we approach the AMC-induced CAC problem by focusing on the guaranteed connection. Three kinds of calls, new, handoff, and modulation-changed calls, are considered. We propose a modified guard channel CAC scheme that allows the modulation-changed and handoff calls to use the guard channel. Then we analyze a Markov model for the CAC scheme with long-term AMC in mind. According to the simulation results, the proposed approach reduces the call dropping probability for modulation-changed calls, which suggests the threshold of guard channels can be determined based on the proposed approach.

In this paper, we analyze the probability of soft handoff and hard handoff which served in DS-CDMA cellular system, and propose a new handoff control scheme. The object of proposed scheme is to reduce the hard handoff probability of delay sensitive calls which are very sensitive to transmission errors. In this scheme, if soft handoff is not possible, for a delay sensitive call, a delay insensitive call using the same frequency channel that a handoff call is using is handed off to one of other frequency channels and the traffic channel released by delay insensitive call's handoff is assigned to a delay sensitive call for soft handoff. A performance of the proposed scheme was evaluated through computer simulation.
