1. A method of processing UMTS calls in a packet transmission network, the network comprising UMTS network nodes;
- the method being characterized in that in order to accept a new UMTS call for setting up in a UMTS network node, it consists in particular in;
calculating for the new call an equivalent passband as a function of;
the quality of service requested for the new call; and
the quality of service attributes of the UMTS medium corresponding to the call;
then comparing the sum of the equivalent passband for the new call plus the equivalent passbands of all of the calls already set up in the UMTS network node with a predetermined maximum value; and
accepting the new call with guaranteed requested quality of service only if the sum is less than or equal to said predetermined maximum value.

5. A node for a UMTS network, for a packet transmission network supporting a UMTS radio telephone system, the UMTS network node being characterized in that it comprises:
-
means for calculating for each new call an equivalent passband as a function of; the quality of service requested for the new call; and the quality of service attributes of the UMTS medium corresponding to the call; means for comparing the sum of the equivalent passband for the new call plus the equivalent passbands for all of the calls already set up in the UMTS network node with a predetermined maximum value; and means for accepting the new call while guaranteeing the requested quality of service only if the sum is less than or equal to said predetermined maximum value. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
