Abstract :
This paper deals with analytical concepts for performance evaluation of the enhanced general packet radio service (E-GPRS). A realistic characterization of source traffic with means of marked Markovian arrival processes (MMAP) serves as an input process for a queuing model. The analysis of this model permits to derive the quantities of interest. The presented results discuss the performance of E-GPRS depending on cell cluster size and radio propagation.
