SIMULATION MODELS OF CALL ADMISSION CONTROL SCHEMES USING GPSS

Abstract

In cellular wireless networks, a variety of channel allocation schemes have been developed for achieving high capacity with minimal interference. The choice of channel allocation scheme impacts the performance of the system, particularly as how calls are managed when a mobile user is handed off from one cell to another. Call Admission Control schemes take into account the effect of handoffs in the performance of the system, particularly call blocking probability and call dropping probability. In this study, we present simulation models and programs of some popular Call Admission Control schemes using GPSS simulation tool.
