  • Abstract
    Outage dwindles the available capacity of a cellular system. In this letter, a methodology to assess the impact of outage on grade of service (GOS) is presented. The proposed methodology is suitable for both large and small systems. It can also be applied to frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) and time-division multiple access (TDMA) technologies. The formulation is much simpler than other formulations reported in the literature and are in good agreement with other analytical and simulation results.
