Abstract

The minimum coupling loss (MCL) is an important parameter when designing the characteristics of a new mobile communications system. A method for evaluation of the MCL in the UMTS/IMT-2000 reference scenarios specified by the ETSI is presented. Furthermore some results are given for respective maximum subscriber densities in terms of maximum spectral efficiency for the speech service
