SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR DIMENSIONING A CELLULAR TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK
First Claim
1. A process for dimensioning a cellular telecommunications network, including, for each of one or more network elements of said network:
- accessing network element environment data representing a configuration and environment of the network element;
accessing QoS data representing quality of service criteria for users of said network; and
processing the network element environment data and said QoS data to generate network element capacity data representing combinations of loads of network services corresponding to capacities of said network element that meet said quality of service criteria,wherein the network element capacity data represents a boundary between combinations of loads of said services that meet said quality of service criteria and combinations of loads of said services wherein at least one of said quality of service criteria is not met.

16. A system for dimensioning a cellular telecommunications network, the system including:
-
an environmental parameter generator configured to access network element environment data representing a configuration and environment of each of one or more network elements of said network; and a network element capacity generator configured to process the network element environment data and QoS data representing quality of service criteria for users of said network to generate network element capacity data representing combinations of loads of network services corresponding to capacities of each network element that meet said quality of service criteria, wherein the network element capacity data represents a boundary between combinations of loads of said services that meet said quality of service criteria and combinations of loads of said services wherein at least one of said quality of service criteria is not met. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon programming instructions for executing a process for dimensioning a cellular telecommunications network, the process including, for each of one or more network elements of said network:
-
accessing network element environment data representing a configuration and environment of the network element; accessing QoS data representing quality of service criteria for users of said network; and processing the network element environment data and the QoS data to generate network element capacity data representing combinations of loads of said network services corresponding to capacities of said network element that meet said quality of service criteria, wherein the network element capacity data represents a boundary between combinations of loads of said services that meet said quality of service criteria and combinations of loads of said services wherein at least one of said quality of service criteria is not met.
