On the performance of packet reservation multiple access with fixed and dynamic channel allocation

The evaluation of packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) is extended from a single cell case, investigated in several previous papers, to a cellular environment characterized by user mobility and by the interference from other cells. The analysis is based on a comparison of PRMA performances with those of classical circuit switching schemes. The comparison methodology is defined, and the comparison, performed by means of a simulation program based on a dynamic traffic model, is discussed.<
