Hi,

BHCA means Busy Hour Call Attempt, but in GSM speaking which channels is involved, SDCCH channel (Signaling channel) or TCH channel(traffic channel)?

I feel BHCA is convinient on MSC part of GSM network.For Airinterface & BSSAP the affected call processing parameters need to be separately addressed.

Hello,
I’m new in telecomunication business.Can you explain more what is Busy Hour Call Attempt about ? Why do we need to know about call attempt during busy hour ?

Hi Cindy,

BHCA is the total number of attempts that a device (i.e. a switch, BTS, BSC, etc.) receives in the busy hour.

We commonly measure network traffic load during the busiest hour because this period represent the maximum traffic load that your network must support.

Can anyone help describe how BHCA is typically measured and tested? Are there standard cases or scenarios for testing a device?

thanks very much

Hi

BHCA = MOC + MTC

MOC = Mobile Originating Call

MTC = Mobile Terminating Call
