Radio resource allocation apparatus

摘要

A radio resource method and apparatus involves allocating transmission channels to and from a node (26) based on the system load requirement. The load requirement is determined from the quality of service requirement which, in turn, is assessed from the data rate, the bit energy to noise power ratio and the signal classification produced by a converter and sorter (38) in response to signal transmission requests. A maximum load generator (40) delivers the maximum load from these parameters. A core calculator and assignor (42) performs a predetermined algorithm on the outputs of the converter and sorter (38) and the maximum load generator (40) and in response thereto controls a channel selector (30) which selects the channels to and from node (26).
