A Resource-Estimated Call Admission Control Algorithm in 3GPP LTE System.

As the evolution of high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), long-term evolution (LTE) has being standardized by the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP). In the existing mobile communication networks, voice traffic is delivered through circuit-switched networks, but to the contrary in LTE, all kinds of traffic are transferred through packet-switched networks based on IP. In order to provide quality of service (QoS) in wireless networks, radio resource management (RRM) is very important. To reduce network congestion and guarantee certain level of QoS for on-going calls, call admission control (CAC), in part of RRM, accepts or rejects service requests. In this paper, we proposed resource-estimated CAC algorithm and evaluated the performance of the proposed CAC algorithm. The result shows that the proposed algorithm can maximize PRB utilization and guarantee certain level of QoS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
