Abstract
Next generation wireless network (NGWN) will be heterogeneous where different radio access technologies (RATs) coexist. In NGWN, efficient radio resource management and QoS provisioning are major challenges. We propose an optimal joint radio resource management algorithm to minimize call blocking probability in NGWN. The algorithm makes call admission decisions such that overall call blocking probability is minimized in the heterogeneous wireless network. We develop an analytical model for the radio resource management algorithm using a multi-dimensional Markov chain. Based on linear programming optimization technique, we determine the optimal splitting of arriving calls among available RATs. Results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other algorithm in the heterogeneous wireless network.
