Abstract
In this paper radio network dimensioning rules for GSM/GPRS networks focussing on Internet applications are presented. Taking simulation results for GPRS introduction and evolution scenarios as the basis, the radio resources needed for a given offered traffic and for given quality of service requirements can be estimated. Both circuit-switched voice traffic and packet-switched Internet traffic sources are considered that are sharing the radio resources available in a GSM radio cell. To achieve this, the simulation tool GPRSim is used that comprises a prototypical implementation of the standardized GPRS protocols.
