摘要
Wireless Local Area Network(WLAN) with high data bit rates can be used with cellular network to achieve higher level of Quality of Service(QoS) by sharing their total resources efficiently.The integration between cellular and WLAN networks should be ensured considering different channel-allocation strategies of both networks and efficient resource management techniques should be developed.In this paper,we propose a new call admission scheme to use the coupled resource effectively.The proposed scheme,by taking the different resource sharing strategies for two access networks,limits the new,horizontal and vertical handoff voice and data call arrivals with respect to their call-level QoS requirements.Numerical results show that the proposed integrated cellular/WLAN network model uses the resources more effectively and achieves all upper bound QoS requirements for voice and data users as compared with the non-integrated network model.
