[menog] ADSL Service Provider Bandwidth Forecasting

[fahad at 2connectbahrain.com]

I think we are missing the question. I believe what our friend is asking is how to take a forecast of customers and translate that to bandwidth requirement (total port size). Basically our friend is considering economy of scale efficiencies and wanting to know if there is an easy way to calculate those like in the voice business with erlangs. For example, an E1 using an 8 hour day does on average 250k mins in a month and so on...

At least this is what I think he's asking.

Fahad.

Dears,

I agree with what Ahmed said, in addition that there should be a targeted plan from the company to reach certain number of customers planned on different locations, the plan should include customers with different speeds, and upon this you start to check capacity of the locations to increase the BW, usual forecasts comes out in a 3 to 5 years plan but I assume yearly plan for targeted number of xdsl ports/clients.

Dear ladies and gentlemen,

can anyone of you point me in the right direction on how a xDSL service
provider forecasts bandwidth upgrades, calculates future requirements and
bandwidth 

contention ratio calculations ?

 

any help is appreciated.

 

PS: Should Philip see this email I would appreciate if he can point me in
the right direction to read this in his book or at least write something
about and put it in his book.

J 

 

thank you in advance.
