Abstract

The minimum CIR value that permits a channel allocation to a call is defined as a threshold value Λc1 and a CIR value a little larger than it is defined as a threshold value Λc2. The CIR value in each idle channel is measured. When the measured CIR value is below the threshold value Λc1, the priority of that channel is decreased; when the CIR value is between the threshold values Λc1 and Λc2, the priority is increased; and when the CIR value is above the threshold value Λc2, the priority is held unchanged. When a call occurs in a base station, the highest-priority one of idle channels with the CIR values larger than the threshold value Λc1 is allocated to that call and the priority of the allocated channel is increased.
