Traffic System Design Handbook

Traffic System Design Handbook Timesaving Telecommunication Traffic Tables and Programs Telecommunications Handbook Series, Whitham D. Reeve, Series Editor This practical handbook is your one-stop source for all the formulas, tables, curves, and charts you’ll need to design switching systems and networks. Compiled especially for those who specify, design, test, operate, or maintain telephone systems and networks, Traffic System Design Handbook covers frequently used traffic formulas such as Poisson, Erlang B (including alternate routing and Neal-Wilkinson peaked traffic tables), Erlang C, Binomial, and Engset along with practical examples to demonstrate how each is used. Computer programs are provided for those who prefer to do their traffic engineering on a computer. In addition, definitions of common terms, a glossary of acronyms and abbreviations, and an extensive bibliography are provided for those new to traffic system design or who need additional background information or more rigorous derivations of the traffic formulas. Also in the Series… Subscriber Loop Signaling and Transmission Handbook Analog by Whitham D. Reeve, Reeve Consulting Engineers This useful guide brings you the latest techniques, requirements, and standards for sending voice, data, and call setup and takedown signals between a system user and a public or private network. Emphasizing the technical and operational aspects of the subscriber loop in an analog environment, you’ll learn what the loop does, how to connect it, and how to design it for maximum reliability. This handbook combines practical information based on field experience, with formal telecommunication industry standards and practices, providing you with the most current techniques for successfully implementing and using a telecommunication system. 1992 Hardcover 304 pp IEEE Order No. PC0268-3 ISBN 0-87942-274-2 About the Series The Telecommunications Handbook Series consists of handy references to the practical information used by technical specialists within the telecommunications industry. These handbooks are designed specifically for readers in each of the three basic fields of the telecommunications industry—inside plant, outside plant, and administration and regulatory—with practical day-to-day engineering and technical information on telecommunications systems.
