Hi All:
I applaud the effort to define a data rate requirement in Section 41. in terms of a sustained average. However, a sustainable throughput is a function of the peak burst rate, user environment (Ped A, Ped B, etc.), propagation conditions, fading conditions, RF network design, user distribution, etc. For a minimum throughput (i.e. sustained data rate) requirement to have meaning, it is necessary to state specifically all of these conditions - a very difficult task.
Isn't it more straightforward - and less controversial - to specify a peak burst rate per sector and then state a maximum allowed degradation in data rate (or Eb/Io penalty) for different degradation factors?
