A method for admission control in a radio communications system that includes determining a quality of service (QoS) type of a service according to a QoS property of the service, determining a service satisfaction ratio of services that belong to the determined QoS type according to a result of the determining a QoS type, comparing the determined service satisfaction ratio with an admission threshold, and admitting the service if the determined service satisfaction ratio is greater than or equal to the admission threshold. An apparatus for admission control in the radio communications system is also provided. With the embodiments in the present disclosure, the resource utilization may be accurately calculated, and the admission control algorithm may be more easily developed and maintained.
