Cell TCH Exhaustion Report

This report shows all cells that will reach exhaustion in the specified forecast. The report shows carried traffic, % blocking, % utilisation, grade of service and lost traffic in the most recent actual busy hour, and then the selected dimensioning parameter, the critical traffic, the sample size, correlation coefficient, traffic growth and exhaustion date. The report is always generated with weekly busy hour values. The user defines the length of forecast in days and the design GOS as runtime parameters, and has the option to include or exclude exhausted cells.

Cell TCH Low Utilisation Report

This report shows all cells that will remain consistently under utilised in the forecast period i.e start off with low utilisation and finish with low utilisation. The report shows carried traffic, % blocking, % utilisation, grade of service and lost traffic in the most recent actual busy hour and then the selected dimensioning parameter, the critical traffic, the sample size, correlation coefficient and current and final utilisation. The report is always generated with weekly busy hour values. The report can be filtered on the maximum current Utilisation and forecast utilisation; these parameters mandatory and default to 25%.

Cell TCH Required Channels Report

This report shows the forecast channel requirements for a set of cells for three different forecast periods. The forecast can be dimensioned using Weekly BH, 3-DAV or 5-DAV values of carried or offered traffic. For all selected cells, the report shows the sample size, the correlation coefficient of the forecast, the actual and required channels and the selected dimensioning parameter in the latest busy hour and then the required channels and forecast traffic at periods of N1, N2 and N3 days ahead where N1, N2 and N3 are configurable but default to 60, 90 and 120. The report is always generated from weekly busy hour values.

Cell TCH Traffic Forecast Graph

This chart allows the user to plot the weekly trend of either the carried or offered traffic for one of the three following dimensioning parameters: the busy hour traffic; 3-day average traffic; or, the 5-day average traffic. It also plots a regression of the selected dimensioning parameter extrapolated over a user-defined forecast period. The forecast is based on weekly summarised data.
