Abstract :
An analysis is made of an alternate-path routing rule called maximum free circuit routing (MFCR). In the use of MFCR, a call is routed to the alternate path that has the maximum number of free circuits when the direct path is blocked. Analytical results show that in conjunction with trunk reservation, this routing rule can offer a stable throughput at high traffic conditions and can increase the call carrying capacity by about 20% (compared to direct path routing) under a blocking requirement of 10-2 on a fully connected symmetrical nonhierarchical network
