Admission control is an important part of modern high-speed network control and has received extensive attention in the recent literature. In this paper we consider an admission control problem for a discrete-time polling system consisting of two queues and a single server. The arrival process in each queue is a superposition of mutually independent Markov-modulated processes and the server serves the two queues according to a Bernoulli service schedule. Basing on the theory of effective bandwidths and the buffer upper bound results on the overflow probability obtained by large deviation techniques, we derive an admission control criterion for the polling system under which {\it Quality of Service} (QoS) requirement by each queue is guaranteed.
