The number of users in the high portable density area is 200, so you calculate
the required number of cells to be nine (200 ÷ 23).
On the floor plan you estimate nine locations for the cell centers to get
complete coverage and for the -45 dBm contours not to overlap (see
Figure 30).

With the CDT, you verify the coverage with the cell boundary contour and the
-45 dBm contours.
The anticipated portable count for each cell is now 22.2 (200 ÷ 9). Using
Table 8 on page 38 you find that each cell needs four Base Stations. Therefore,
the total site requires 36 Base Stations.
