Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new channel assignment scheme, which is a hybrid of the channel reservation scheme and the channel carrying scheme. It is designed to efficiently carry out handoffs in wireless mobile networks. We evaluated our scheme with a two-cell model using both Markov analysis and computer simulation. The analytical and simulation results indicate our scheme may offer better performance than the conventional reservation scheme and channel carrying scheme in terms of handoff blocking probability and channel utilization.
