The two moment performance analysis of cellular mobile networks with and without channel reservation

Abstract

We propose the two moment performance analysis of cellular mobile networks with and without channel reservation. We show how one may determine customer-orientated grade-of-service parameters such as new call blocking, hand-off call blocking and forced termination probability under a two moment representation of traffic offered to each cell. We present extensive results comparing the proposed two moment analysis with classical single moment analysis and simulation results. For variety, we have employed four different mobility models in our simulator. We show that our proposed model outperforms the existing analytical method when compared to simulation results employing all four mobility models.
