Probabilistic channel reservation scheme for mobile pico/microcellular networks
Kee Chaing Chua, Sang-Min Choo · IEEE Communications Letters · 1998
Channel reservation based on the handoff probability of a call arriving in an adjacent cell is proposed as a more flexible and dynamic means of providing handoff priority in mobile pico/microcellular networks in which frequent handoff events are to be expected. A basic probabilistic channel reservation scheme is described and shown to yield improvements in performance, especially in terms of channel utilization by successfully completed call, over the well-known static trunk reservation policy.
