Cell throughput vs User throughput

[jitendra_rf]

Hi Expert,

What is the difference between Cell throughput & User throughput.

Hi,

You know, Throughput is Data Volume divided by Transmission time

If you consider Cell Level, you divide the data volume of the cell by the transmission time of cell : that means, the time where there is any data to be transmitted by that cell.

Now from the user side, to calculate the user throughput you need to divide the user data volume by the time that UE is in transmission
And to get the average User in a cell you need to divide the Sum of all UE data by the sum of transmission time of all UE.

Note that the volume data of all UE is the same Cell volume data
If a cell has only one UE then Cell Thpt will be the same as User Thpt.

So what differ is the transmission time

Hope that was clear

Very clear answer.

Does it mean in mature network, Cell Throughput always higher than User Throughput?

Yes you can say that, if you have a single user, then cell throughput and user throughput will be same otherwise Cell throughput will always be higher than user throughput.

With the increase in user number you will see Cell throughput will increase while user throughput will reduce. Cell throughput will always be greater than user throughput.
