Evaluation of blocking probability in multiservice wireless networks

Abstract

This paper proposes a method that takes into account the diversity and requirements of multimedia traffic for evaluating blocking probabilities in multiservice wireless networks. For performance evaluation, we analyze the impact of traffic intensity on the blocking probability of each class of services, and compare the results obtained from simulation with those obtained numerically using the proposed method. We realize that, in general, the blocking probabilities obtained from the proposed method are close to those obtained from simulation.
