If it is not known where any of the users of
fices are, calculate the estimated number of handsets
for each cell using this formula:
The formula assumes that users are located evenly throughout the cells. However, most users
offices are clustered in specific areas of a building.
The formula has limitations, as cells can vary in size. The method described starting on The
cell re-engineering process on page 107 gives more accurate cell division results.
A mix of users with and without wired telephones in a cell
Use this procedure for mixed handset users.
This procedure then enables the telephone traffic
generated by handset users, to be equated to that of handset and wired users. Combine the
two groups for cell size recalculation purposes.
