Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the impact of delaying delay-tolerant calls under certain conditions in cellular networks. We propose to queue the call if the user agrees when the terminal has bad radio conditions and the system is loaded. The call is served as soon as radio conditions become good or the current load goes below a given threshold. We model the system as a continuous-time Markov chain, which allows us to compute the blocking probability, the mean waiting time and the mean service time. Numerical results show that when the proportion of users with delay tolerance is 20%, the system can bear 16% more calls with the same blocking probability, and 113% more calls if 80% of users are delay tolerant.
