| Abstract | Next generation wireless networks will support a diverse set of access technologies. And the demanding breed of multimedia applications will even more considerably require Quality of Service (QoS) support. This paper proposes an optimal prority-based Call Admission Control (CAC) scheme in heterogeneous wireless networks, i.e., the generalized semi-Markov Decision Process based CAC (GCAC). Considering the limitations of the traditional Markov decision process for optimal CAC policy, we characterize the CAC problem through a GSMDP formulation that characterizes the network behaviors in the heterogeneous system more exactly. And the proposed scheme can guarantee the QoS constrains both in the physical and network layer. Numerical examples illustrate that the performance in the GCAC scheme is significantly better than that in the conventioinal GC scheme and an optimal CAC schme based on MDP. |
