Abstract

This paper presents a new policy called the threshold priority policy (TPP) for assigning channels in cellular networks. The performance of TPP is compared with the performance of the well-known cutoff priority policy (CPP) and the nonprioritized complete sharing policy (CSP). Several numerical experiments are done for various values of offered load and portable mobility. The results are compared using three unified performance metrics which take into account the trade-off between new call blocking probability and the forced termination probability.
