11、Recommendation is intended to characterize the mobile user traffic demand associated with mobile services. This demand has significance for both the user and the signalling plane. Source ITU-T Recommendation E.760 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 2 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolu
12、tion No. 1 procedure on 13 March 2000. Recommendation E.760 (03/2000) 1 FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-
13、T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for st
14、udy by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the neces
15、sary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to t
16、he possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outs

As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

22、modelling for land terrestrial or satellite-based mobile systems (including cellular, cordless, paging and IMT-2000) presented in this Recommendation is intended to characterize the mobile user traffic demand associated with mobile services. This demand has significance for both the user and the sig
23、nalling plane. 1.2 The geographical scope of traffic demand and terminal mobility modelling ranges from metropolitan to international areas. As an example, Figure 1 shows the scope of Recommendation E.760 for the case of terrestrial-based cellular networks under the assumption of separated fixed and
24、 mobile networks (see Recommendation E.75 1). The figwe indicates two teletraffic interfaces at which traffic demand has to be characterized for traffic engineering purposes. One traffic demand relates to the radio interface; the other is associated with the characterization of mobile related traffi
25、c which insists on the fixed network. This latter characterization is intended for the purposes of dimensioning fixed network resources used for supporting mobile services. NOTE - The figure shows the interconnection of (separated) fiied and mobile networks, Recommendation E.220, and the allocation
26、of mobility management functions (MMF) within the mobile network, as is typically the case with second generation mobile systems (e.g. GSM). Depending on the actual implementations and traEc requirements, the MSC (Mobile Switching Centre) can be connected with the fixed network ant the LE (Local Exc
27、hange) or TE (Terminal Exchange) level. This is succinctly indicated through the combination LE/TE. In fact, the allocation of MMF has a range of possible options including the arrangements resulting from integrated mobile and fied network, Recommendation E.75 1.

28、and characterization for cellular networks (separated mobile and fixed network, mobile-to-mobile communication) Recommendation E.760 (032000) 1 1.3 This Recommendation addresses traffic demand modelling related to land mobile systems and traffic demand associated with the radio interface. Modelling
29、of traffic demand insisting on the fixed network is for further study. Finally, traffic modelling for other systems, e.g. cordless and paging systems, is also for further study. 2 Related Recommendations The following Recommendations contain material that is either relevant to or provides background

37、 Switching Centre Local Exchange Mobility Management Function Mobile Switching Centre Mobile Terminal Terminal Exchange Introduction One unique feature characterizing the traffic demand of mobile users is spatial volatility. This relates to the changing geographical origin (or destination) of traffi
38、c associated with the same mobile user once a connection has been established (in-call mobility) and is due to user terminal mobility. Another aspect of terminal mobility relates to users changing their geographical location in-between calls (inter-call mobility): this results in a dynamic associati
39、on between the identifier of the actual terminal device used by a user and the network attachment point for calls originated by (or destined to) the same user. 5.2 As a consequence of traffic volatility combined with traffic source activity and spectrum reuse typical of cellular systems, the radio c
40、hannel quality is space- and time-dependent and appropriate actions, e.g. handover or combining, may be performed by the system to help maintain a minimum level for the quality of service. Although these actions may result in a consumption of the same resources utilized for accommodating call demand
41、s, the characterization of the related processes depends, among others, on how radio resources are engineered and managed. For this reason the characterization of these processes is covered in Recommendations of the E.750-series especially concerned with traffic dimensioning methods for land mobile
42、systems. 5.3 One way of capturing traffic volatility for engineering purposes is via a distribution in space and time of the user population over a considered area. This distribution shall then be mapped onto user demand, while retaining the space and time dependence. Factors affecting this distribu
43、tion include: o environment type (indoor/outdoor, business, residential, etc.); geography of and mobility patterns on the considered area (open space, urban layout, city mobility characteristics (pedestriancar mobility behaviour, speed, etc.); o precinct, etc.); o o service penetration. 5.4 Although
44、 efficient use of the available spectrum might be attained by using various forms of dynamic bandwidth allocation to cope with the volatility of mobile traffic, most existing systems are dimensioned according to a worst-case approach with relationship to a static population of users. This implies th
45、at the highest traffic demand insisting on a given area (usually corresponding to a cell) is estimated and the number of radio channels related to that area is determined accordingly. The estimate is based on such data as density of residing population, service penetration, geographic characteristic
46、s, traffic per subscriber, etc. Recommendation E.760 (03/2000) 3 This Recommendation is concerned with the worst-case approach as defined above; estimation of the traffic demand based on explicit consideration of the time and space traffic volatility is for further study. 5.5 Finally, to decouple th
47、e traffic demand characterization fiom the dimensioning and control procedures and harmonize with the methodology used for traffic engineering for fixed networks and services, the traffic demand processes for systems supporting mobile services have to be kept distinct fiom processes induced by netwo
48、rk operation, such as channel quality maintenance and handover handling. 6 Estimation of traffic demand for cellular networks 6.1 Rationale 6.1.1 For traffic engineering of cellular systems, information on geographical population distribution is of vital importance to an operator. For new entrants t
49、o a market, this information can normally only be estimated using published census information. This may vary in resolution, with the better ones being rather detailed, and may resolve down to municipal or district level. From the census database and the size of the geographical area, it is possible to estimate the population density for the location. Together with the year-on-year user penetration forecast and the average traffic intensity per subscriber, the traffic demand can be obtained. 6.1.2 In parallel with the traffic engineering process, radio coverage planning is also performed t
