Question

A certain city has an area of 2,900 square miles and is covered by a cellular system using a 7-
cell reuse pattern. Each cell has a radius of 6 miles and the city is allocated 40 MHz of
spectrum with a full duplex channel bandwidth of 60 kHz. Assume a GOS of 2% for an
Erlang B system is specified. If the offered traffic per user is 0.04 Erlangs,

Answer 1

Answer:

A certain city has an area of 1300 square miles and is covered by a cellular system using a 7-cell reuse pattern. Each cell has a radius of 4 miles and the city is allocated 40 MHz of spectrum with a full duplex channel bandwidth of 60 kHz. Assume a GOS of 2% for an Erlang B system is specified. If the offered traffic per user is 0.03 Erlangs, compute:
