Abstract:

A new admission control scheme was presented in packet-switched orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless communications. In the scheme, the relationship between the packet waiting time in queue and the acceptance ratios for real-time services was derived with Markovian queueing model and Wiener prediction theory. Thereafter, the maximum acceptance ratios subject to a hard constraint on packet waiting time and handoff call dropping probability was obtained. The proposed scheme will satisfy the packet-level and call-level quality-of-service (QoS) requirements for real-time services while maintaining high bandwidth utilization. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Key words: call admission control, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing, packet delay, quality of service
