Introduction
Traffic maps are mandatory to generate user distributions used by Monte-Carlo simulations
They can be additionally used to compute Interference Matrices (IM) in 2G networks
3 main types of traffic maps defined in Atoll:
User profile traffic maps
Marketing-based traffic data
Sector traffic maps

Live traffic data from OMC*
User density traffic maps

Population-based traffic data
2G network statistics
*OMC: Operation and Maintenance Centre

Slide 4
2 types available:
Vector map (lines, polygons or
points) with:
a user profile,
a mobility type,
a subscriber density (or no. of
subscribers) assigned to each of
them
User profile
densities
Forsk 2014
Raster map in which:

each pixel is assigned a user profile
environment
Urban,
Dense Urban,
Suburban,
Rural,
User profile
environments
Slide 5
Requirements (1/2)
Define User Profiles:
Description of the behaviour of different subscriber categories for given services:
Terminal used
Average number of calls (Voice) or sessions (Data) /hour
Average duration (for Voice services, in seconds)
UL & DL data volume (for Data services, in Kbytes)
Standard User and Business User defined by default in Atoll
Forsk 2014
Slide 6
Requirements (2/2)
Define Environments:
Economic and social concept used to describe subscriber spatial distribution on
the map
Each user profile is associated with:
A mobility type
A density (number of users with the same profile per km)
Clutter weighting and indoor ratio per clutter
class to get an accurate user distribution
List of user profiles with associated

mobility and density
Forsk 2014
Slide 7
Importing a User Profile density based traffic map (1/2)
Vector file import

Supported formats: dxf, mif/mid, shp, agd
Example:
Format mif/mid
User Profile | Mobility | Subscriber Density
Forsk 2014
Slide 8
Importing a User Profile density based traffic map (2/2)

You must specify the source of traffic information:
Attributes of polygons/lines/points described in the imported file
User-definable global information
Option by field:
selection of the corresponding field in the imported file,
for each data (user profile, mobility, density)
Detailed information per polygon or line
Option by value:
selection of a user profile, a mobility, and specification of a
density/no. of subscribers
Global information for all polygons or lines
(here Mobility = 50km/h for all polygons)
Possible clutter weighting and indoor/outdoor ratio per

clutter class in order to get a more accurate user distribution
Forsk 2014
Slide 9
Same management features as vectors

Attributes listed in a manageable table
Sort and filter criteria on vector display
Generic display dialog
Access to any single vector property
Possibility to export traffic map
Mif/mid, shp, agd formats
Forsk 2014
Slide 10
Creating a User Profile environments based traffic map
To create a map from scratch
8-bits raster file import

Supported formats : bil, tif, bmp
Selected Environment
Forsk 2014
Draw polygon
Delete polygon
Slide 11
Same management features as clutters

Multi-layer/multi-resolution management (WYSIWYG)
Map display
Transparency level and visibility range

Slide 13
Sector Traffic Maps
Live traffic data from OMC

Requirements
Define traffic for each sector:
either the total throughput demand per service,
or the total number of active users per service,
or the total number of users sorted by service AND activity status
Calculate a coverage prediction by transmitter
Example:
UL and DL throughputs,
for each defined service
Forsk 2014
Slide 14
Sector Traffic Maps
Map creation (1/3)

Four types of traffic map per sector
To create a map from scratch

Based on a service area study by transmitter (defined
and calculated) to obtain cells coverage
Forsk 2014
*.agd format file import

Coverage by Transmitter
(Mandatory)
UL and DL throughputs (or number of users)

for each sector
List of all defined services

Slide 16
Sector Traffic Maps
Map creation (3/3)
Map type selection:

Throughputs,
Number of active users,
Number of users per activity status
Distribution of Mobility type

used in the map
Distribution of Terminal
used in the map
Possible clutter weighting and

indoor/outdoor ratio per clutter class in
order to get a more accurate user
distribution

Slide 19
Based on population statistics (density of inhabitants, or 2G traffic statistics)

Inputs
Density of users (number of user/km) per pixel
Can be deduced from population maps and sector traffic maps
Density of active users

(number of users/km) on
each pixel
Users can be inactive, active UL, active DL or active UL+DL

One map per activity status
Forsk 2014
Slide 20
Map creation (1/2)
Five types of traffic map per

User Density
Possibility to:
Create a new map from scratch (thanks to Vector editor)
Import 16 and 32-bit raster file (Supported formats : bil, tif, bmp, erdas imagine)
Forsk 2014
Slide 21
Map creation (2/2)

Activity status to be
considered in the
simulation
Percentage of
each Terminal
used in the map
Percentage of
each Mobility type
used in the map
Percentage of
each Service
used in the map
Percentage of indoor
users per clutter class
during the Monte-Carlo
distribution

Slide 24
Subscriber Database
Basically used to model fixed user distributions in a network

Rely on Subscriber Lists in Atoll, managed from the Network tab
Supported by the LTE, Wi-Fi and WiMAX modules
Importing Subscriber Lists

Supported formats: .txt and .csv
Example of a Subscriber List:
Forsk 2014
Slide 25
Subscriber Database
Atoll can perform an Automatic Server Allocation for all Subscribers in a list
A large set of data is then available for each Subscriber:
Reference Cell (Server)
Channel Powers (PDSCH, PDCCH, PBCH ...)
Bearers in UL & DL
Throughputs
...
