Traditional Transmission——Abis of TDM over E1

Abis E1 Dimension Principle for FullRate:

15 FR TRX per E1

S555 configuration: 1 BCCH per cell; 3 SDCCHs per cell; TCH channel = 5*8-1-3=36
Signaling : 1 RSL / TRX, 1 OML / Site, RSL or OML occupy one 16kbps timeslot
Total 16kbps channel required= 36*3+15+1=124= 124/4=31 64kpbs timeslot= 1 E1

Dimensioning Procedure
Case study: supposed S444; 10% LCLS; 100% FR; 3 Activated MCS9
PDCHs; 85%Transmission Link Bandwidth Utilization
CS channel bandwidth (Kbps)
=(1-LCLS percentage)*Avg frame bit rate (kbps) with MUX for CS* Total voice number/BH
=(1-10%)*8.8*84=665.28 kbps
PS channel bandwidth (Kbps)
=Number of Activated PDCHs in Busy Hours*Avg frame bit rate (kbps) with MUX for PS
=3*31.4=97.2kbps
Signaling bandwidth (Kbps)
=10% *CS channel bandwidth (Kbps)
=10%*665.28=66.53kbps
Total Abis requirement (Kbps)
=(CS channel bandwidth (Kbps)+ PS channel bandwidth (Kbps)+ Signaling bandwidth
(Kbps))/Transmission Link Bandwidth Utilization
=(665.28+97.2+66.53)/85%=975.31kbps
Total Abis timeslot requirement (64Kbps)
=Roundup (Total Abis requirement (Kbps)/ 64kbps,0)+1
=Roundup(975.31/64,0)+1=17
