Abstract
In wireless communications networks with multiple service classes (SCs) of calls, call admission control (CAC) schemes is an essential radio resource management (RRM) function for networks consistency. Apart from the calculation of the call blocking probability (CBP) appropriate criteria and metrics should be considered to evaluate the efficiency of various schemes. Fairness among different services is an important efficiency criterion for CAC in wireless networks with multimedia services while throughput is an efficiency criterion of general validity. In the present paper, four CAC schemes based on guard channel algorithms are proposed for multiclass services, offering priority to real time service class calls while ensuring a certain level of quality of service (QoS). The proposed schemes investigate the CAC problem in terms of ongoing users and occupied channels. Fairness among calls of different classes is evaluated and the network performance is compared with respect to input load.
