Assumptions:

Average traffic in each TRX =7.2 Channels 7.2

Call Holding Time 123
MSC Paging success Ratio on first page(%) 75.00
Percentage of MT Calls(%) 58.00
Calculation of TRX per LA
No. of CCCH (PCH/AGCH) blocks in 51 Frames BCCH channels Multiframe structure 9
BS-AG-BLKS ( No of Blocks Reserved for Access Grant) AGB 2
MSC Page Resend Ratio ( 75% calls answered on First Page) (N) 1.25
No. of Paging Blocks =9-AGB 7
Duration of 1 Multiframe (51 frames) 0.2354
No. of Paging Blocks per Second =(9-AGB)/0.2354 29.736619
No. of Paging per Paging Block ( For TMSI Paging) 4
No. of Paging Per Second Supported ( P) 118.94647
Calls per Second =1/123 0.0081301
If 58% MT Calls, Calls Per Second ( C) 0.0047154
No. of pages Per Second Required ( Q) =CxN 0.0058943
Traffic Supported per LA ( 100% Load) =P/Q 20179.885
Traffic Supported per LA ( 50% Load) 10089.942
No. of TRX Supported Per LA 1401
