Title
Channel allocation scheme for cellular networks using evolutionary computing
Abstract
The usage of mobile communications systems has grown exponentially. But, the bandwidth available for mobile communications is finite. Hence, there is a desperate attempt to optimise the channel assignment schemes. In this work, some of the quality of service parameters such as residual bandwidth, number of users, duration of calls, frequency of calls, priority, time of calls and mean opinion score are considered. Genetic algorithm and artificial neural networks is used to determine the optimal channel assignment considering the quality of service parameters. The simulation results show that genetic algorithm performs better than frequency assignment at random, a heuristic method. But application of artificial neural networks outperforms genetic algorithm and frequency assignment at random method by a considerable margin. Channel allocation can be optimised using these soft computing techniques resulting in better throughput.
