In order to provide users with satisfactory quality of service and reduce service cost as much as possible, a key issue is how to manage radio resources reasonably and effectively in heterogeneous wireless networks (HWNs). Based on load balance and service characteristics, a common radio resource management (CRRM) algorithm for HWNs consisting of CDMA2000 and IEEE802.11 is proposed. The proposed algorithm selects appropriate access and handoff networks for new and handoff calls respectively, according to users' mobility characteristic, location information, service type and network load. The performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed based on a three-dimensional Markov chain model. Based on the HWNs model and handoff rate analysis, the model's parameters are determined. In order to resolve the steady-state distribution of the three-dimensional Markov model, successive over-relaxation iteration method is adopted to work out steady state equations. According to the steady state probabilities of the Markov model, the closed formulas of HWNs performance metrics are given to evaluate the proposed CRRM algorithm, e.g. call blocking probability, handoff blocking probability, throughput, and service cost. For the purpose of illustrating advantages of the proposed algorithm, two other CRRM algorithms are employed for comparison. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce call blocking probability, and improve HWNs throughput.
