Device and method for measuring the usage of system resources in a communicationnetwork

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for measuring usage of system resources in a communication network. The apparatus includes devices for measuring radio resources, data service units and transmission characteristics in the system. The devices for measuring are adapted for performing a respective collective measurement. The method includes collectively measuring transmission parameters including radio resources, data service units and transmission characteristics. The method provides for dimensioning system resources according to transmission demand in the network.
