Abstrakt: Consider a circuit-switched network where C source switches are connected to a destination switch via a tandem switch. Circuit-switched networks traditionally employ a Blocked Calls Lost (BCL) call admission control: a call is rejected if all access circuits from the originating switch to the tandem switch are busy, or if all B outgoing circuits from the tandem switch to the destination switch are busy. This paper investigates a simple extension to the BCL control. Rather than reject all blocked calls, the Blocked Calls Queued (BCQ) control holds some blocked calls by storing their call signalling information in a buffer at the tandem switch. These calls will later be connected when circuits become available. The BCQ model is solved using standard methods requiring O( BC) storage locations and O( B C) arithmetic operations. We show that the BCQ control becomes effective if calls are rejected (source rejection) when all access circuits are busy. We demonstrate that the BCQ control with source rejection achieves a substantial reduction in the loss probability at the expense of a small connection delay. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
