Simulation of Prioritized Channel Assignment Models in Cellular Mobile Radio Networks

A study of how priority, service demand, and subscriber mobility affect channel assignment in cellular networks.

Research overview

Analyzing channel assignment under unequal service priorities.

The thesis studies cellular systems in which user classes can have different channel-assignment priorities. It develops analytical models and simulation experiments to examine service failure probability and the effects of subscriber movement after a channel has been assigned.

The work compares mathematical results with OPNET simulations and shows why mobility must be considered when evaluating prioritized assignment policies.
