Performance analysis of two-hop-relay cellular systems with queueing capability

摘要

In this paper, we present a two-hop-relay WCDMA cellular system with queueing capability, where a call can wait in the incoming buffer at the congested Base Transceiver Station (BTS) if no channel is immediately available, so as to reduce the call blocking rate. We develop an analytic model based on Multidimensional Markov chains. Then based on this model, we can obtain the average transmission rate and the queuing delay performance of the system respectively. Finally, through numerical calculation, we analyze the impact of the various parameters on the performance of the two-hop-relay WCDMA cellular system with queueing capability.
