Abstract

Call admission control (CAC) strongly influences the performance of 3G/4G spread spectrum systems because it determines the number of active users that are admitted to the network, i.e., influences spectral efficiency. A novel air interface CAC algorithm is introduced in this paper. It optimizes the utilization of radio resources and provides real-time adaptation to the radio channel with generalized multiplicative fading. Users are handled as memory-less traffic sources. The suggested CAC method was evaluated for lognormal fading and on/off traffic.
