This paper deals with an advanced admission control (AC) scheme that estimates the requesting connections signal-to-noise plus interference ratio (SINR) by means of accurate multiple access interference (MAI) analysis results. This algorithm verifies the possibility of a new call admission by valuating if a power configuration exists, whose predicted SINR values satisfy each QoS constraints. Numerical simulations, closely related to the UMTS system, underline a remarkable number of active users increase up to four times traditional AC policies, together with the maximisation of QoS requirements.
