Traffic Capacity In Erlang (For TDM Circuits)
Calculation Procedure
STA
C.O.
Total system traffic capacity (T-erl) is obtainable by the following formula.
T (erl) = I (erl) + E (erl)
In the

(COT) quantity by employing the "Erlang B Table". There is no limitation for the internal traffic capacity.
The time slot is assigned for individual station and the connection between stations can be made
without limitation through TDSW (Time Division Switch). Consequently, when describing the traffic
capacity in Erlang, it is meaningless unless specifying the ratio of the internal and external traffic. From
the above idea, total system traffic capacity (T-erl) is actually obtained by the following formula:
T (erl) = Internal Traffic (I-erl) + External Traffic (E-erl)
= E (erl) ‚ (Ratio of external traffic)
When assuming the external and internal traffic is even.
T (erl) = E (erl) + 0.5
For example:
System configuration
• 384 Lines
• 64 C. O. Trunks
• External traffic: Internal traffic: = 7:4
In this system, external traffic capacity is obtained from "Erlang B" table. That is, 64 C. O. Trunks at
grade of service of 0.01 can carry 50.6 erl. Total traffic capacity of this system is obtained from above
50.6 erl and ratio of external traffic as shown below:
T (erl) = E (erl) ÷
= 50.6
= 72.3 erl
Traffic capacity per station line
= 72.3erl
= 0.19 erl/L
