RESOURCE PARTITIONING IN A CELLULAR COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A cellular communication system (100) a first Radio Network Controller (107) supporting different communication service types. A first resource controller (203) controls resource allocation for a first communication service type from a first resource partition and a second resource controller (205) controls resource allocation for a second communication service type from a second resource partition. A partition processor (207) partitions a shared resource into at least the first and second resource partition in response to a first admission failure measure for the first communication service type. Optionally, the partition processor (207) may partition the shared resource into at least the first and second resource partition in response to a second admission failure measure for the first communication service type.
