Channel occupancy time distribution in a cellular radio system

Guerin, R.A.·1987·IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology

Abstract

The distribution of the channel occupancy time in a cellular radio system is studied, namely, the distribution of the time spent by customers on one frequency channel within a given cell. Two approaches are used. The first one relies on a computer simulation allowing a general model for mobiles behavior. The second is analytical, and assume a simplified system where mobiles keep constant directions. The results of both methods are compared with a fitted exponential distribution, and excellent agreements are found for most practical situations. In addition, a simple expression giving the average number of handoffs for a random customer is obtained. The results derived in this paper provide useful and simple tools to analyze cellular systems.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
