The nonuniform compact pattern allocation algorithm cellular mobile systems

Abstract

An algorithm for allocating nominal channels according to traffic distribution is designed. The algorithm attempts to minimize the average blocking probability as nominal channels are allocated one at a time. Simulation results show that the system's traffic-carrying capacity can be increased by about 10% by the use of this algorithm, and that the gain is additional to the improvement obtained from the channel-borrowing strategies. If the effect of shadow blocking is considered in the assignment of channels, only a very small increase in the traffic capacity is observed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
