Teletraffic Performance of Hierarchical Cellular Network in Different Populations of Slow Mobile Generated Traffics

Ever since the first analogue mobile cellular was launched 15 years ago, the growth of and demand for the cellular communications have never reached its saturation stage. The technological change from analogue to digital and now the merging of cellular mobile and personal communications system (p...
