Tele-traffic Engineering Revision Examples

1) In a telecommunication network, it is observed that 21 calls get blocked out of the 68


call attempts during the busy hour. Mean holding time of a call is estimated to be 2
min for this network.
a. Calculate the blocking probability.
b. Estimate the carried traffic intensity.
c. Estimate the offered traffic intensity.
d. Estimate the lost traffic intensity.

2) A switching system is designed to support 80,000 subscribers during the BH. Each
subscriber generates an average of 1.8 calls during the BH with an average call
holding time of 100 seconds.
a. Calculate the offered traffic load to the switching system.
b. In order to achieve a 80% utilization during the BH, what should be the
capacity of the switching system
c. If there are 200 sites in which this traffic is evenly distributed and BCC system
is implemented in the sites with a 2% blocking probability, what is the number
of channels required for each site?

3) Consider a 100 x 100 switching system. Find the number of cross points if following
types of switches are used.
a. Single stage switch
b. A 3-stage switch having 10 number of input stage switching arrays and 10
number of output stage switching arrays with 5 number of middle stage
switching arrays
c. A 3-stage strictly non-blocking switching system with optimum number of
cross points

4) A call centre in a telecommunication network gets 600 calls which lasts


approximately 3 minutes each and the call centre agent has an after call work (logging
information) of 20 seconds. What is the number of call centre agents required to have
a waiting probability less than 0.5%?

5) Number of call arrivals in a network has a Poisson distribution.


a. Provide the equation for the probability of having k number of arrivals during
a period of t, in case the arrival rate is λ
b. If the arrival rate is 0.4 calls/min, find the probability that exactly 2 calls arrive
during the time 0 to 3mins and 3mins to 6mins
c. What is the observation of above b? What is the property behind this
observation?
6) A telecommunication network has a service process having an exponential
distribution with a mean μ
a. Write the equation for the probability that the service time will be less than
time x
b. If the mean service time is 12 mins, what is the probability that the next
customer will be served in less than 10mins?
c. For the same mean service time, what is the probability that the next customer
will be served in more than 6mins?

7) Below provided are the parameters of 2 networks arrived through traffic


dimensioning.
Network A
Number of customers 20,000
Active customers during BH 10%
BH customer profile: 1 call per customer with a duration of 100s
Blocking probability 2%
Required number of sites 5

Network B
Number of customers 30,600
Active customers during BH 8%
BH customer profile: 1.2 calls per customer with a duration of 800s
Blocking probability 5%
Required number of sites 26

Calculate the number of channels required in each site for both the network,
considering the traffic is evenly distributed among all the sites.

8) Generate X1 using mid-square method if, X0 = 1724

9) If the pdf P(x) = 3e-3x, explain how the inverse CDF (quantile) function is derived to
generate random numbers.

10) In a telecommunication network, there are 1875 average requests at a given time. If
the processing time of the system is 3 mins, calculate the number of requests received
by the system for a duration of 6 hours.
