In this paper, we enhance our multi-agent system for resource management developed for cellular mobile networks. The new scheme allow agents to dynamically adapt to changes in the network load in order to maintain a target call dropping probability. We investigate the impact of the number of neighboring agents involved in a call admission decision in addition to the agent receiving the call request. The neighboring agents provide significant information about their ability to support the new mobile user in the future. This distributed process allows the original agent to make a more clear-sighted admission decision for the new user. Simulations are presented with a detailed analysis of a comparison between two schemes involving different numbers of agents.
