Erlang's Fixed-Point Approximation for Performance Analysis of HetNets

We consider the analytic modelling of wireless systems with multiple access technologies in the perspective of teletraffic engineering and provide a framework for the performance analysis and evaluation of a wireless HetNet (heterogeneous network) system with both cellular and WLAN access technologi...

description We consider the analytic modelling of wireless systems with multiple access technologies in the perspective of teletraffic engineering and provide a framework for the performance analysis and evaluation of a wireless HetNet (heterogeneous network) system with both cellular and WLAN access technologies. In particular, an approach with Erlang's fixed-point approximation to calculate the new call blocking and handover call dropping probabilities in such systems is introduced. The model is versatile enough to cover not only cellular/WLAN HetNet systems but other wireless HetNets with difference access technologies in general.
