Abstract

The management and control of the global growth and complex nature of wireless Fourth Generation (4G) Networks elicits the need for Call Admission Control (CAC). However, CAC faces the challenge of network congestion, thereby deteriorating the network Quality of Service (QoS) due to inherent imprecision and uncertainties in the QoS data which leads to difficulties in measuring some objective and constraints of QoS using crisp values. Previous researches have shown the strength of Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic System (IT2FLS) in coping adequately with linguistic uncertainties. Intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) have indicated their ability to further reduce uncertainty by handling conflicting evaluation involving membership (M), nonmembership (NM) and hesitation. This paper applies the Interval Type-2 Intuitionistic Fuzzy Logic System (IT2IFLS) in solving CAC problem in order to achieve a better QoS in 4G Networks.
