Channel allocation for mixed multislot services

摘要

A method and system for allocating and reallocating communication channel resources in a resource area defined by a number of communication channels. According to the method, arrival probabilities for various types of channel structures are estimated and used as the basis of the allocation and reallocation. Priorities are assigned to the various types of channel structures, and a priority list is disclosed which can be consulted to perform the allocation and reallocation. Preferably, an allocation and a reallocation are performed for each arrival of a channel structure to the resource area, and a reallocation is performed after each departure of a channel structure from the resource area.
