Abstract

A wireless communication system (20) includes a call admission module (40) that determines whether to admit a new call based upon a flow of the new call. In a disclosed example, the call admission module (40) predicts a loading of a sector resulting from admission of the new flow. Provided that the new flow will fit within a sector capacity or there are sufficient resources that can be reallocated within the sector to accommodate the new flow and satisfy quality of service requirements for the new flow and existing flows, the new call will be admitted.
