Abstract

The performance of a priority-based dynamic capacity allocation suitable for wireless ATM systems is presented. The scheduling of ATM cell transmission in each uplink TDMA frame is based on a priority scheme with priority given to real-time traffic over nonreal-time traffic. Real-time traffic exceeding the uplink capacity is lost while nonreal-time traffic that cannot be served is stored in a first-in first-out (FIFO) queue. An analytical model is developed to evaluate the cell loss ratio (CLR) of both real-time and nonreal-time traffic. Aggregate voice, video, and data traffic is modeled by three two-state Markov-modulated Poisson processes (MMPPs). Analytical results for different system capacities and various traffic loads and scenarios are discussed. Simulation results with on-off sources and approximating MMPP sources are also presented
