Iub Throughput

The Iub throughput capability check is divided into two separate calculations:
1. Combined Actual Traffic Load Factor (Erl for AMR and mbps for PS & CS
data) data)
2. DMCU Reservation Load Factor for PS Data and Total Actual PS Data
Throughput
Combined Actual Traffic Load steps are explained in the following slides Combined Actual Traffic Load steps are explained in the following slides
