Teletraffic engineering and network planning

This book covers the basic theory of teletrac engineering. The mathematical backgroundrequired is elementary probability theory. The purpose of the book is to enable engineers tounderstand ITU{T recommendations on trac engineering, evaluate tools and methods, andkeep up-to-date with new practices. The book includes the following parts: Introduction: Chapter 1 Mathematical background: Chapter 2-3 Telecommunication loss models: Chapter 4-8 Data communication delay models: Chapter 9-12 Measurement and simulation: Chapter 13 The purpose of the book is twofold: to serve both as a handbook and as a textbook.

Thusthe reader should, for example, be able to study chapters on loss models without studyingthe chapters on the mathematical background rst.The book is based on many years of experience in teaching the subject at the TechnicalUniversity of Denmark and from ITU training courses in developing countries.
