| Popis: | The personal communication systems envisaged for next years will have to accommodate a wide range of services with different quality requirements (on delays, bit error rates, etc.), and will often be characterized by a high burstiness (i.e., with relatively short traffic bursts, alternating with comparatively long silence periods). Therefore, an extension of packet communications to the cellular scenario is appealing for its inherent flexibility. The packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) protocol is considered. On the other hand, the current trend in reducing cell sizes poses major planning problems, which cannot be properly coped with by the usual fixed channel allocation methods; therefore, adaptive allocation schemes, which are able to avoid any frequency planning, are currently studied. A review of adaptive channel allocation strategies in view of application to packet switching is carried out. Then, a self-adaptive assignment method (channel segregation) originally developed for circuit switched systems is selected and conveniently adapted for PRMA operations. Simulations show good performance, provided that values of some system variables are correctly chosen. |
