Efficiency of Resource Allocation for Enhanced Quality of Service in MobileWiMAX Network

The mobile wireless networks have to enable full mobility for users with non degraded Quality of Service (QoS). The QoS is closely related to a mobilityof users. Resource allocation is a vital component of call-admission control that determines the amount of resource to assign to new and handoff connections for quality-of-service (QoS) satisfaction. In this paper, we present approximate analytical formulations of virtual partitioning schemes for handling multiclass services with guard channels in a cellular system. Resource-allocation models for best effort and guarantee access with preemption for best effort traffic and virtual partition with preemption for all classes are investigated. The analytical models, derived using a -dimensional Markov chain, are solved using preemption rules for these schemes. Call-level grade of service, such as new-call-blocking probability, handoff-call-blocking probability, and system utilization, and packet-level QoS, such as packet-loss probability, are used as performance metrics.
