Call admission control in an ATM network using upper bound of cell loss probability

Call admission control in ATM networks without monitoring network load is proposed. Traffic parameters specified by users are employed to obtain the upper bound of cell loss probability, thereby determining call admission. A cell loss probability standard is guaranteed to be satisfied under this control without assumptions of a cell arrival process. Implementation of this control to quickly evaluate cell loss probability after acceptance of a new call is discussed. The result is also applicable to ATM network dimensioning based on traffic parameters. >
