| Abstract | In order to provide essential data needed for planning the network and business plan, traffic demand of different subscriber categories is studied in this research. Subscribers are classified into three main categories such as business subscribers, residential subscribers and public telephone subscribers. Business subscribers are divided into four sub-categories: administration office, state-owned companies, private companies and commercial foreigner companies. Mobile, VoIP, PSTN long distance, international, internet, cityphone and local traffic measurements were taken in a PSTN local exchange in HCMC covering in both urban and rural areas. This measurement part consists of three traffic measurement methods based on destination traffic measurement, charging data analysis and subscriber observation. Statistical analyses including traffic type of calls, mean holding time, carried traffic per subscriber of different subscriber categories were performed. Busy hour, success ratio of calls, offered traffic per subscriber and repeated attempts were also investigated. The number of subscriber and their traffic demand were forecast for next 10 years. It can be observed that mobile and PSTN long distance services are used more by business subscribers than by urban and rural residential subscribers. Mobile and PSTN long distance traffics of each business subscriber are 3 times more than that of residential subscribers. In contrast, average VoIP traffic of urban residential subscribers is 4.2 mErl while it is only 3.3 mErl per business subscriber and 1.3 mErl per rural residential subscriber. The largest VoIP users are public telephones with 18.2 mErl per subscriber. The number of business, urban residential and rural residential subscribers is predicted to increase by 206 %, 168 % and 119 % by 2015, respectively |
