Performance Analysis of Channel Segregation in Cellular Environments with PRMA

概要

Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA)is emerging as a possible multiple access scheme for the forth-coming Personal Communication systems, due to its inherent flexibility and to its capability to exploit silence periods to perform a statistical multiplexing of traffic sources, often characterised by a high burstiness. On the other hand, the current trend in reducing cell sizes and the more complex traffic scenarios pose major planning problems, which are best coped with by adaptive allocation schemes. The identification of adaptive schemes suitable to operate on a shorter time scale, which is typical of packetised information, disclose a number of problems which are addressed in this paper. A viable solution is provided by a well-known self-adaptive assignment method (Channel Segregation), originally developed for FDMA systems, provided it is conveniently adapted for PRMA operation. Simulations show good performance, provided that values of some system variables are correctly chosen. These results encourage further studies in order to refine adaptive methods suitable for cellular, packet switched personal communications systems.
