Abstract

The paper proposes a method for capacity redimensioning process of cellular mobile networks which take into account the customer retrial phenomenon. The main parameter of this method is the real call blocking probability which can be estimated by analyzing a two dimension Markov chain. Its transition probabilities are governed by two important factors related to the customer behavior: the retrial probability and the mean retrial rate. The influence of these factors on the capacity redimensioning process is analyzed by means of some numerical results
