Abstract :
We consider the performance of dynamic single-channel assignment in a finite linear cellular array. Assuming a Markov traffic model, we present closed-form expressions for the blocking probabilities of handover calls and new calls as functions of the traffic load and the number of cells in the array. This enables us to analyze the behavior of dynamic channel assignment. We also discuss limiting values
