23、ION OF TRAFFIC OFFERED IN THE NETWORK (revised 1997) 1 Introduction For planning the growth of the network, the following quantities must be estimated from measurements: - - - traffic offered to exchanges; - traffic offered to circuit groups; traffic offered to destinations, on an origin-destination

24、 basis; call attempts offered to exchanges; - traffic offered to signalling links. These quantities are normally estimated from measurements of busy-hour carried traffic and call attempts, but there are a number of factors which may need to be taken into account within the measurement and estimation

25、 procedures: a) Measurements may need to be subdivided, e.g. on a destination basis, or by call type (for example, calls using different signalling systems). It may not be possible to obtain a complete record of traffic carried. FOT example, in a network with high usage and final groups, it may not

26、be possible to measure the traffic overflowing from each high usage group. Measurements may be affected by congestion. This will generally result in a decrease in traffic carried, but the decrease may be affected by customers repeat attempts and by the actions (for example, automatic repeat attempts

27、) of other network components. When high levels of congestion persist for a lengthy period (many days), some customers may avoid making calls during the congested period of each day. This apparent missing component of offered traffic is known as suppressed traffic. It should be taken into account in

28、 planning since the offered traffic will increase when the equipment is augmented. At present, suitable algorithms for estimating suppressed traffic have not been defined. b) c) d) Three situations should be distinguished: i) Congestion upstream of the measurement point - This is not directly observ

29、able. ii) Congestion due to the measured equipment - Congestion measurements should be used to detect this. iii) Congestion downstream of the measurement point - This can often be detected from measurements of ineffective traffic or completion ratio. Note that where groups are both way, congestion e

30、lsewhere in the network may be both upstream and downstream of the measurement point for different parcels of traffic. When congestion is due to the measured equipment, this must be properly accounted for in the estimation of traffic offered which is used for planning the growth of the measured equi

31、pment. When congestion arises elsewhere in the network, the planner needs to consider whether or not the congestion will remain throughout the considered planning period. This may be difficult if he does not have control of the congested equipment. This Recommendation presents estimation procedures

32、for two of the situations described above. Clauses 4 and 5 have the aim of the determination of traffic offered to circuit group, and namely clause 4 deals with the estimation of traffic offered to a fully-operative only-path circuit group which may be in significant congestion. Clause 5 deals with

33、a high- usage and final group arrangement with no significant congestion. Clause 6 provides a procedure to determine traffic offered to destinations on an origin-destination basis, when only measurements of traffic intensity on circuit groups are available or when direct measurements on origin-desti

34、nation traffic offered are also available. In clause 6 the estimated traffic offered is the “equivalent traffic offered“ used in the pure lost call model as defined in Annex B, while in clauses 4 and 5 in the evaluation of traffic offered, the users repeat attempts are taken into account. Recommenda

35、tion ES01 (05197) 1 STD.ITU-T RECMN E-SUL-ENGL 1997 48b2.571 Ob38780 TU9 These estimation procedures should be applied to individual busy-hour measurements. The resulting estimates of traffic offered in each hour should then be accumulated according to the procedures described in Recommendation E.50

36、0. 2 Scope This Recommendation provides means of estimating the traffic offered to circuit groups based on measurements of traffic carried and means of estimating origin-destination traffic flows based on circuit group measurements. 3 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other referenc

Then, on the assumption that augmentation of the circuit group would have no effect on the mean holding time of calls carried or on the completion ratio of calls carried, the frajc ofered to the circuit group may be expressed as: where B is the present average loss probabil

To facilitate the quick determination of offered traffic according to the approximate procedure in Annex A, Table A. 1 including numerica

42、l values of the factor ( 1 - WB)/( 1 - B) was prepared for a wide range of B, H and r (for the definition of H and r, see Annex A). For the use of Table A. 1, see Note 2 in Annex A. NOTE 1 - Annex A gives a derivation of this relationship, and also describes a more complex model which may be of use

43、when measurements of completion ratios are available. NOTE 2 - When measurements of completion ratios are not available a W value may be selected from the range 0.6 to 0.9. It should be noted that a lower value of W corresponds to a higher estimate of traffic offered. Administrations are encouraged

44、to exchange the values of W that they propose to use. NOTE 3 - Administrations should maintain records of data collected before and after augmentations of circuit groups. This data will enable a check on the validity of the above formula, and on the validity of the value of Wused. NOTE 4 - In order

45、to apply this formula, it is normally assumed that the circuit group is in a fully operative condition or that any faulty circuits have been taken out of service. If faulty circuits or faulty transmission or signalling equipment associated with these circuits remain in service, then the formula may

46、give incorrect results. 2 Recommendation E.501 (05/97) 5 High-usage/final circuit group arrangement 5.1 High-usage group with no significant congestion on the final group 5.1.1 measurements on both circuit groups.

48、dure are recommended, each with several possible approaches. The method given in 5.1.2.1 a) is preferred because it is the most accurate, although it may be the most difficult to apply. The methods of 5.1.2.2 may be used as additional estimates. 5.1.2.1 given for estimating AF, in decreasing order o

In most circumstances this may be achieved by measuring traffic carried on the final group on a destination basis. The total traffic carried on the final group is broken down by destination in proportion to the number of effective calls to each destination. The traffic carried on the final group is broken down according to ratios between the bids from the high-usage groups and the total number of bids to the final group. b)
