| Abstract | We investigate the performance of voice and best-effort data traffic over Enhanced General Packet Radio Services (EGPRS) using tight reuse configurations (e.g. 1/3 or 1/1), with the aim of identifying suitable bearer designs and optimal system configurations for these services. We find that voice and data have somewhat conflicting preferences: voice capacity is optimized using random frequency hopping and quality-driven power control: data throughput is optimized using no frequency hopping and no power control. These somewhat contradictory requirements impose a challenge in the system design. We investigate two simple traffic integration strategies: (1) segregating the resource for the two services and using the optimal configuration in each segment; and (2) integrating the traffic by allowing voice and data to share the same resource, and use a compromised configuration for the entire system. We find that if the majority of traffic is voice, traffic integration has an advantage since data can use any residual voice capacity. On the other hand, if the majority of traffic is data, segregation provides higher spectrum efficiency. Furthermore, the integrated traffic option becomes increasingly sub-optimal with increasing data traffic load. We conclude that the system design should depend upon the expected mix of traffic (including traffic types in addition to voice and best-effort data) and the desired engineering complexity, and that further work is needed to understand the possible design options. One possible design option is to soft segregate the resource, e.g., to allow data to use the voice segment on an overflow basis. Similar strategies may be good avenues for future work. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
