Method for maximizing cellular capacity in muti-media CDMA system
First Claim
1. A method for receiving a new call so as to maximize a capacity of a code divisional multiple access (CDMA) system wherein a base station communicates messages with a plurality of mobile subscribers, a call indicates a physical signal for communicating messages via voice or data in the system, a plurality of calls exist at an instant communicating between the base station and mobile subscribers, a currently progressing call indicates a data call existing at an instant, and the new call indicates an incoming call in addition to the currently processing call, said method comprising steps of:
- (a) providing a service with a maximum transmission rate for the data call in case that a load of the system is smaller than the system capacity when all calls are transmitted at a fixed rate; and
(b) decreasing the transmission rate of the data in case the system is overload, maintaining a total interference quantity to a target value of service quality, and receiving the new call;
wherein said step (a) comprises steps of;
(a-1) checking whether the new call is acceptable by employing a system drain probability expression when the new call is required for a receipt; and
(a-2) computing the maximum transmission rate of the data call through a use of the system drain probability expression and servicing the new call, in case the new call is acceptable.

Abstract
A cellular capacity in a multimedia DS-CDMA system may be maximized by controlling a transmission rate of data calls. In a method for maximizing the cellular capacity, the total interference quantity is controlled by restraining the transmission rates of the respective data calls according to diminution factors of a linear, a parabola and a hyperbola; the transmission rate of the data call is increased in case a traffic load is small; and the transmission rate of the data call is decreased in case the traffic is overloaded, thereby more calls can be received and the number of subscribers having a service of voice and data calls in the CDMA circumstances may be allowed most suitably. In case a call of higher priority is newly received under a state that the data call of a high speed occupies a resource of a system for a long time, the transmission rate of the currently progressing data is controlled to receive the new call. Accordingly, the number of subscribers can be allowed at maximum by controlling the transmission rate of the data call so that more voice and data calls may be received within the CDMA system capacity.

1. A method for receiving a new call so as to maximize a capacity of a code divisional multiple access (CDMA) system wherein a base station communicates messages with a plurality of mobile subscribers, a call indicates a physical signal for communicating messages via voice or data in the system, a plurality of calls exist at an instant communicating between the base station and mobile subscribers, a currently progressing call indicates a data call existing at an instant, and the new call indicates an incoming call in addition to the currently processing call, said method comprising steps of:
-
(a) providing a service with a maximum transmission rate for the data call in case that a load of the system is smaller than the system capacity when all calls are transmitted at a fixed rate; and
(b) decreasing the transmission rate of the data in case the system is overload, maintaining a total interference quantity to a target value of service quality, and receiving the new call;
wherein said step (a) comprises steps of;
(a-1) checking whether the new call is acceptable by employing a system drain probability expression when the new call is required for a receipt; and
(a-2) computing the maximum transmission rate of the data call through a use of the system drain probability expression and servicing the new call, in case the new call is acceptable. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4)
(b-1) detecting whether a priority of the new call is higher than that of the data call currently in service, in case the new call is not acceptable;
(b-2) controlling the transmission rate of the currently progressing data call and deciding whether the new call can be allowed, in case that the priority of the new call is higher than the currently progressing data call in service;
(b-3) deciding a diminution factor of linear, parabola and hyperbola transmission rates by considering a maximum buffer size or a minimum transmission rate of the system, in case the new call can be allowed;
(b-4) decreasing the transmission rate of the currently progressing data call on the system drain probability expression by using the decided diminution factor and receiving the new call;
(b-5) rejecting the new call in case that the new call is not acceptable even though the transmission rate of the currently progressing data call decreases to the minimum transmission rate; and
(b-6) increasing a decreased transmission rate in a reverse direction of the transmission rate diminution factor, when the currently progressing data call is completed so the new call can be received systematically.

5. A method for maximizing a capacity of a cellular system by controlling a transmission rate of a data call in service, said method comprising steps of:
-
determining whether there is an incoming new call while servicing a current data call;
determining whether the new call can be accepted on the basis of a system drain probability expression; and
computing a maximum transmission rate of the data call currently in service, and servicing the new call, when the new call can be acceptable on the basis of said system drain probability expression. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9)
determining whether the new call has priority over the data call currently in service, when the new call can not be accepted on the basis of said system drain probability expression;
determining whether the new call can be received for controlling the transmission rate of the data call currently in service, when the new call has priority over the data call currently in service;
determining a diminution factor of linear, parabola and hyperbola transmission rates by considering a maximum buffer size or a minimum transmission rate of the cellular system, when the new call can be received; and
