Performance Analysis of Fractional Guard Channel Scheme with Buffer for Cellular Mobile Networks

摘要

In this paper, we have developed an efficient channel assignment scheme using fractional guard channel for utilizing the limited radio recourses efficiently and seamlessly by providing buffer for good-quality signal calls to improve the quality of service. Two models are proposed to prioritize good-quality handoff calls over poor-quality calls. The expressions for blocking probability, call dropped probability of handoff calls, utilization of channels and buffer are obtained for a cellular radio network. Numerical simulation results for both the models illustrate the impact of different parameters on the key performance measures.
