A COMPUTATION METHOD IN PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IN CELLULAR COMMUNICATION NETWORK UNDER THE GENERAL DISTRIBUTION MODEL

ABSTRACT. The paper considers the computation method in the performance evaluation of cellular network in the phase-type distribution assumptions that the channel holding times in-duced from mobility are modeled by well-fitted distributions to reflect an actual situation. When ww consider a phase-type distribution model instead of exponential distribution, the complexity of the computation increase exponential even though the accuracy is improved. We consider an efficient numerical algorithm to compute the performance evaluations in cellular networks such as a handoff call dropping probability, new call blocking probability, and handoff arrival rate. Numerical experiment shows that numerical analysis results are well approximated to the results of simulation. 1
