Popis: In this paper we propose a Connection Admission Control (CAC) algorithm to provide Quality of Service (QoS) in UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Networks (UTRAN). In UTRAN, the main QoS requirement is to ensure low packet delays. The CAC algorithm works with priority scheduling, which is used for QoS differentiation. We give a detailed investigation on the performance implications of applying priority scheduler. We provide novel closed-form formulae which are fast, simple and accurate enough for practical implementation of the CAC. A comprehensive performance evaluation study with illustrative numerical examples is also presented. The results are validated by simulations.
