In this letter we propose a novel resource allocation and admission control strategy for OFDMA-based emerging LTE systems. Considering users' reneging and migration between service providers, we first prove that the optimal resource allocation problem, which maximizes the service provider's gross income is, NP-complete. Subsequently, we propose two different heuristics based on dynamic programming and greedy algorithms to get a near-optimal resource allocation and admission control strategy in computationally feasible time. Simulation results point out that the solutions offer increased gross income of the service provider, while offering low latency, adequate throughput and session acceptance.

We study the user reneging behavior in a hybrid Multimedia-on-Demand (MoD) system, which provides both interactive and batch services. Reneging happens when users become reluctant to wait for a batch service and quit the service. They will either join the interactive service or quit the system. In this letter, the analytical model for the MoD system with user reneging behavior is provided. Numerical results show that the reneging behavior has a significant impact on system performance. Therefore, careful consideration on reneging behavior should be made for designing a MoD system.

This paper investigates the performance of an integrated voice/data wireless mobile network where a finite buffer is provided for voice calls since they can endure a tolerable time, or the reneging time, for service. Based on a given humanistic reneging time, we analyze the voice traffic blocking probability. The probability distribution of receiving service within the reneging time is obtained for each buffered voice call and based on this result, an appropriate amount of voice buffer is obtained. To alleviate the impact on data blocking probability caused by the voice buffer and to enhance the efficiency of data service, a dynamic multi-channel allocation scheme with channel de-allocation and guard channels is proposed for data traffic. Compared with the conventional method where the system adopts a single-channel allocation scheme without guard channel for data users, the proposed scheme shows significant improvement in data blocking probability, throughput and the mean service time. Furthermore, a system with an appropriate size of buffer for voice traffic can receive good improvement in voice blocking probability.
