            Abstract : 
This paper studies the behavior for performance evaluation of a personal communication services (PCS) network, in which the handoff call arrival processes and the new call arrival processes may depend on the number of calls in the target cells, and the caller may become impatient. We propose an analytical model and obtain the expressions of some interesting conventional and some new performance measures. Many special cases of our model used in previous traffic models of wireless and/or wireline communications are discussed. The results presented in this paper can provide guidelines for field data processing on updated PCS network design and performance evaluation
