– Capacity: it’s the maximum number of users or the total data throughput a network can support reliably. It relies on traffic loading, traffic patterns, cell site equipment capability, and hardware dimensioning.
– Multiple Access technique :defines how terminals transmit over the same transmission medium and share its capacity. Examples: p y p

Terminology – Cont.
– Cell Spectral efficiency: the aggregate throughput of all users (the number of correctly received bits) divided by the channel bandwidth divided by the number of cells. The channel bandwidth is defined as the effective bandwidth times the frequency reuse factor. It's measured in bit/s/Hz/cell.
– The peak spectral efficiency is the highest theoretical data rate (normalised by bandwidth), which is the received data bits assuming error‐free conditions assignable to a single mobile station when allerror free conditions assignable to a single mobile station, when all available radio resources for the corresponding link direction are utilised
f h h h h f– Frequency Reuse factor: is the rate at which the same frequency can be used in the network. It is 1/K where K is the number of cells which cannot use the same frequencies for transmission.

Technology Evolution
• The evolution of wireless telephone technologies can bediscretely grouped into various generations based on the levely g p gof maturity of the underlying technology.
• The classification into generations is not standardized on anygiven metrics or parameters and as such does not represent astrict demarcation.
• It represents a perspective which is commonly agreed upon,both by industry and academia, and hence conceived to be anunwritten standardunwritten standard.
