Abstract :
The exact analysis of dynamic channel allocation (DCA) with first-in/first-out (FIFO) queuing of handover (QH) requests is highly complex, due to the dynamic nature of channel allocation to different cells. This letter presents an approximate but accurate analytical method to evaluate the performance of DCA in conjunction with FIFO-QH in low earth orbit mobile satellite systems. The accuracy of the proposed analysis has been verified by means of computer simulation.
