Throughput estimation for EGPRS services based on GSM network measurements
Jorge Navarro‐Ortiz, J. Martinez, Javier Romero · 2003
This paper presents throughput distributions for EGPRS and GPRS services based on measurements from a real network. First, CIR distributions for different frequency reuses are estimated based on mobile measurements reports and in a method here presented. Second, throughput and spectral efficiency values are calculated considering the estimated CIR distributions by means of mapping tables. Finally, the relative throughput and spectral efficiency gains between EGPRS and GPRS are given for different scenarios at the border and at the center of the cell.
