Abstract :
A joint street microcell/office picocell model is used to evaluate a digitally enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT) system providing outdoor as well as indoor radio coverage from indoor radio ports. The indoor DECT network is able to provide seamless communication within the city area with no capacity loss, provided that the majority of calls are originated from indoors.
