Abstract

In this paper we study the downlink of an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based cell that accommodates calls from different service-classes with different resource requirements. We assume that calls arrive in the system according to a Poisson process while the call admission is based on the Bandwidth Reservation (BR) policy. The BR policy is used for the reservation of subcarriers in favor of calls of high subcarrier requirements. To determine the most important performance metrics, i.e., Call Blocking Probabilities (CBP) and resource utilization in this system, we model it as a multirate loss model and propose recursive formulas which reduce the complexity of the calculations. The accuracy of the formulas is verified via simulation and found to be quite satisfactory.
