A new priority policy for channel assignment in PCS networks
S. Sridhar, K. Kang · 2002
This paper presents a new policy called the threshold priority policy (TPP) for channel assignment in personal communication service (PCS) networks. The performance of this policy is compared with the performance of the well-known cutoff priority policy (CPP). The major performance measures used include blocking probability of new calls, forced termination probability, overall blocking probability and call non-completion probability. Several simulation experiments are done to study the sensitivity of the different policies to parameters such as offered load and portable mobility. These results are used to validate the analytical results obtained in an earlier study.
