Analysis of Bandwidth Gain Over Various Timer $_$ CU of AAL2 for Voice Traffic Multiplexing
H.-J. Lee, Jaehoon Kim · IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology · 2005
An asynchronous transfer mode adaptation layer type 2 (AAL2) transmission scheme commonly is used to deliver the voice and the data traffic between Node-B and the radio network controller on the universal mobile terrestrial device network. To predict the AAL2 multiplexing performance, we analyzed the bandwidth gain and the cell-packing density using discrete Markov chain model for the voice service and validated these results with simulations. We also performed a detailed simulation for the voice and the data services in a concentrator. Based on the analysis, we proposed an engineering guideline for selecting the optimal Timer/spl I.bar/CU in a Node-B. We found that there is no major benefit in using the AAL2 multiplexing in a concentrator. The benefit of the AAL2 multiplexing in I/sub ub/ for the data service was much less than that for the voice service. They also depended heavily on the traffic load.
