Abstract :
Based in a definition of simulations scenarios, traffic behaviour, and QoS (quality of service) aspects, a SLS (system level simulator) is used for obtaining system capacity results for urban and business city centre (BCC) scenarios, when overload conditions are considered. Optimum values of the cell coverage distance that maximise the profit per unit length (in BCC) or by unit area (urban) were found. For prices of 5 and 7 Euro cents/MB, while in urban scenarios, optimum values of 20 and 70 %, respectively, were found for profit (for coverage distances of 217 and 621 m), in BCC, optimum values occur around 240 m, and are 80 and 150 %, respectively
