Question
A mobile company wants to cover a city with an area of 162 sq km with cells of 3 sq km area each. The company is given the frequency band
between [580 - 854] MHz. The band is divided into parts, reverse and forward. The two parts are separated by 1.48 MHz of gap. One simplex
channel requires 14 kHz. Minimum SIR required to be 6.2 dB and the path loss exponent equals 2. On average, each user makes 6 phone calls
per hour and each call lasts for 48 seconds. The required GOS is 1%. The number of available channels in each cell would be
