This work presents a novel channel assignment scheme for low earth-orbit (LEO) satellite-based mobile communication systems, in which any newly generated call will first be assigned an optimum channel and will no longer be reassigned even when it crosses the boundary of the cell. Thus, the compact reuse distance can be maintained and no handoff failure will occur owing to channel unavailability. Furthermore, a high quality service which guarantees successful handoff processes can be provided. The performance of the proposed strategy is analyzed and compared with the performances of the fixed channel assignment (FCA) scheme and dynamic channel assignment schemes.

In the current digital mobile communication that is used in the micro cellular system, a Self-Organized Dynamic Channel Assignment (DCA) Method has been proposed to use frequencies effectively. However, its characteristics and operational matters have not been reported yet. This paper takes up the TDMA/TDD system used in the current PHS system and also evaluates the characteristics and operational matters of this method through the actual operational tests. In addition, this paper aims to propose a new DCA method in order to speed up the Channel Segregation and evaluates its effects through the actual operational tests.

This paper discusses the teletraffic characteristics of cellular systems using Dynamic Channel Assignment. In general, it is difficult to exactly and theoretically analyze the teletraffic characteristics of Dynamic Channel Assignment. Also, it is not easy to theoretically evaluate influence of mobility on the traffic characteristics. This paper proposes approximate techniques to analyze teletraffic characteristics of Dynamic Channel Assignment considering mobility. The proposed techniques are based on Clique Packing approximation.
