Abstract

Multi-service traffic engineering has a strong impact in mobile broadband systems (MBS) revenues, and it will allow one to obtain merit functions for optimisation purposes, a key aspect in cellular planning. MBS applications have access to different service components, with different data rates and average durations. Fast mobility has an important impact in handover failure probability, hence, in system capacity. While in the business city centre and other urban scenarios mobility has no significant effect, it affects the supported traffic in main roads. A reduction of up to 54% may come as a consequence
