Maximum packing channel assignment algorithm in multi-rate traffic microcellular networks

Many dynamic channel assignment (DCA) algorithms have been developed, however, all of these proposed algorithms are targeted for single rate cellular networks. Up to now, very little research has been done for multi-rate cellular systems that have integrated services, i.e., voice, data, video, etc. We evaluate the performance of the maximum packing (MP) algorithm with cluster channel reservation in integrated services cellular systems. Also, we propose a practical distributed DCA scheme that approaches closely the system capacity of the MP with cluster channel reservation algorithm. The capacity increase due to the use of the cluster channel reservation strategy is significantly greater in DCA strategies than in FCA, because in the DCA schemes the reserved channels are kept in a cluster pool.
