What is Deterministic Online Call Control in Cellular Networks and Triangle-Free Cellular Networks about?

Wireless Communication Networks based on Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM in short) plays an important role in the field of communications, in which each request can be satisfied by assigning a frequency. To avoid interference, each assigned frequency must be different to the neighboring assigned frequencies. Since frequency is a scarce resource, the main problem in wireless networks is how to fully utilize the given bandwidth of frequencies. In this paper, we consider the online call control problem. Given a fixed bandwidth of frequencies and a sequence of communication requests arrive over time, each request must be either satisfied immediately after its arrival by assigning an available frequency, or rejected. The objective of call control problem is to maximize the number of accepted requests. We study the asymptotic performance of this problem, i.e., the number of requests in the sequence and the bandwidth of frequencies are very large. In this paper, we give a 7/3-competitive algorithm for call control problem in cellular network, improving the previous 2.5-competitive result. Moreover, we investigate the triangle-free cellular network, propose a 9/4-competitive algorithm
