Abstract

Channel allocation schemes are responsible for deciding which available channel is assigned to an incoming call. This paper studies the performance of a novel game-theoretic channel assignment scheme, for Fixed Channel Allocation (FCA) networks, that bases its allocation decision on the instantaneously received and produced interference levels. The performance of the proposed scheme is compared against which obtained considering the traditional random assignment mechanism and other published algorithms. The conducted work highlights the benefits of the proposed scheme and studies its optimum configuration under various operating conditions and considering a mixed service scenario.
