Outline of Lectures:

The objective of this course is to learn how to model cellular systems for the use in optimizing the design of this type of network. The course will consist of the following parts:

• A revision of basic queueing models
• Analysis of cellular systems with a single cell
• Channel reservation strategies possibility for the design of systems that optimize performance whilst minimizing the probability of interrupting current sessions
• Models and algorithms to support the different priorities of existing users
• Flow guarantees to different users through models of service differentiation
• Hierarchical cellular structures
