For example, let's say each user needs 500 kbps and is only active 25% of the time. In order to satisfy user needs with a chance of at least 0.9%, how many users can we multiplex on an 8 Mbps link? In this instance, what is the statistical multiplexing advantage that may be achieved via multiplexing?
