Summary :

In this paper, we propose a handoff scheme with two-level priority for the reservation of handoff request calls in mobile cellular radio systems. We assume two types of mobile subscribers with different distributions of moving speed, that is, users with low average moving speed (e.g., pedestrians) and high average moving speed (e.g., people in moving cars). A fixed number of channels in each cell are reserved exclusively for handoff request calls. Out of these number of channels, some are reserved exclusively for the high speed handoff request calls. The remaining channels are shared by both the originating and handoff request calls. In the proposed scheme, both kinds of handoff request calls make their own queues. The system is modeled by a three-dimensional Markov chain. We apply the Successive Over-Relaxation (SOR) method to obtain the equilibrium state probabilities. Blocking probabilities of calls, forced termination probabilities and average queue length of handoff calls of each type are evaluated. We can make the forced termination probabilities of handoff request calls smaller than the blocking probability of originating calls. Moreover, we can make the forced termination probability of high speed handoff request calls smaller than that of the low speed ones. Necessary queue size for the two kinds of handoff request calls are also estimated.
