Abstract
As the general packet radio service (GPRS) network begins to provide such as "push-to-talk" (PTT) service, delay-sensitive packets should be given higher priority in transmission. In this paper, we study two channel allocation schemes that implement priority queues for priority packets in the GPRS network: bitmap channel allocation (BCA) and uplink state flag channel allocation (USFCA). Our study shows that the transmission delay of priority packets in the GPRS network can be better guaranteed using USFCA
