Abstract :
EDGE Compact has been developed to enable the deployment of an EGPRS system by utilising only 0.6 MHz worth of spectrum. The implication of using such a narrow spectrum is that system loading becomes a critical factor in maintaining an acceptable QoS service from the user´s perspective. This paper investigates - under a simulation environment - the performance of 1:3, 2:6, 3:9 and 4:12 EDGE Compact. The scenarios are analysed by varying system loading and considering system throughput and user delay statistics with and without admission control. The results are particular to the population of mobiles operating with perfect receiver, under TU50-NoFH radio condition, E-mail traffic and perfect link adaptation
