Abstract

Abstract—Priority is usually given to handover traffic in mobile communication but doing so has the tendency of increasing call blocking probability. It was said previously that non-prioritized call traffic channel assignment scheme reduces call blocking probability more than other basic channel assignment schemes at high handover traffic intensities. A comparison of channel assignment schemes by analysis and MATLAB simulation in this research has shown that dynamic guard channel assignment scheme based on channel utilization minimizes call blocking probability better than non-prioritized, prioritized guard channel and prioritized guard channel with queue/buffer. The wireless technology used was Mobile WiMAX with mobile assisted handover (MAHO) and the queueing policy employed was M/M/C/Q with FCFS service discipline.
