Abstract


The level of patronage being experienced in Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) in Nigeria is overwhelming, this is due to the fact that GSM is been used by anyone , anytime and everywhere .This led to a lot of congestion in network resulting to bandwidth degradation and decrease in quality of services. This research has developed a management algorithm for the management of the GSM congestion and evaluated the algorithm based on their performance, Call admission control was combined with other GSM congestion control mechanism to achieve a good and better result. The work integrates all the algorithms together in order to manage the congestion considering all the strengths and constraints of each algorithm.


Keywords
