Performance Evaluation and Comparison of Fuzzy-Based Intelligent CAC Systems for Wireless Cellular Networks

The mobile cellular systems are expected to support multiple services with guaranteed Quality of Service(QoS). But, the ability of wireless systems to accommodate expected growth of traffic load and broadband services is limited by available radio frequency spectrum. Call Admission Control (CAC) is one of the resource management functions, which regulates network access to ensure QoS provisioning. However, the decision for CAC is very challenging issue due to user mobility, limited radio spectrum, and multimedia traffic characteristics. To deal with these problems, we implemented a Fuzzy Admission Control System (FACS). We compared the performance of FACS with Shadow Cluster Concept (SCC). In another work, we extended FACS by considering the priority of the on-going connections. We called this system FACS-P. As priority parameter, we considered only one parameter (service request). In this work, we improve our previous system by adding different priorities. We call this system FACS-MP. We evaluate and compare the performance of implemented systems by simulations. From the simulations results, we conclude that the FACS-MP can differentiate better different services compared with previous systems.
