Abstract(s)

Optimisation of the cellular planning process for multi-service Enhanced UMTS in business city centre environments is addressed by using results for system capacity as an input for a cost/revenue function. Based in a definition of simulations scenarios, traffic behaviour, and Quality of Service aspects, a System Level Simulator is used for obtaining system capacity results in the business city centre scenario when overload conditions are considered. Optimum values of the cell coverage distance that maximise the profit per unit length were found. For prices of 5 and 7 Euro cents/MB, optimum values of 80 and 150 % occur around 240m, respectively.
