Abstract :
The teletraffic performance of a highway microcellular digital mobile radio system having an oversailing macrocell that spans many microcells is presented. The microcellular cluster is composed of concatenated segments of the highway where each segment is a microcell, typically 500-2000 m in length, with the base stations located at lamp-post elevations. A narrowband time-division-multiple-access arrangement supporting ten channels per carrier and one carrier per base station is used. The teletraffic analysis assumes there are n-up and n-down lanes, and that the vehicular speeds conform to a truncated Gaussian distribution whose mean speed is 100 or 50 km/h when the vehicular traffic is free-flowing or in traffic-congested conditions, respectively.<>
