The Method of Determining the Optimal Transmission Resources Distribution of ICT Networks Modelled by Graphs

Abstract The paper discusses the method of improvement of transmission properties of ICT networks by setting the correct distribution of transmission resources in order that it is possible to increase the resulting global probability of supporting the calls generated in the nodes included in the network. The method uses some parts of the graph theory. A minimum length path searching algorithm was used which made it possible to calculate the volume of movement transferred by individual edges of the graph describing the network. The coefficient of the distribution of transmission resources was determined and used to calculate the value of the resources in reference to a particular link, both in the case of equal and diverse movement generated in individual network nodes. A piece of software was developed which uses the results of applying the above-mentioned algorithm to prepare the files describing the analyzed structures in order to carry out simulation tests. The views and analyses are illustrated by examples, and the resulting effects of the influence of the introduction of the method of dividing network resources into transmission properties of a network modelled by graphs are shown in the charts included.
