Requirements for Calculating System Capacity


How many Subs accessing during the peak period
Traffic offered by each subscriber/class of subscriber
Overhead (Transport and Protocol)

Determine link utilisation


Which modelling tool to use?
single channel
multiple channels

e.g. A mobile user is expected to transmit and receive up to 10Mb of data during
the busy period. If there are 250 users in a sector, what is the total busy period
capacity required in the sector assuming a 10:1 over subscription?

10Mb transmitted over 1 hour = 2777bits/s


peak data demand = 2777bits/s x 250 users = 694.2Kbps

Hi Interference Indicator proactive refers to near future resource


allocation
Interference Coordination
Static planned reuse changes are rare some performance limitation

Semi-Static Dynamic reconfiguration every


few seconds may suit unevenly loaded networks
