Abstract :
New quality-based channel allocation mechanisms are evaluated. The mechanisms assign incoming calls the available channel that previously experienced the best link quality. For that purpose, three metrics have been considered: BER, BLER and CIR. The proposed techniques improve the QoS compared to the traditional random allocation mechanism while also offering its benefits in terms of uniform long-term channel use.
